Merrily Farm

Nestled in amongst flowering lilacs, ancient apple trees, and terraced English perennial gardens, this lovingly restored classic antique stone cape has all the conveniences of modern living, while honoring and preserving the charming period detail. Built in 1860, the home is an impressive example of snecked ashlar stone construction, which was introduced to this region by Scottish immigrants in the early 1800’s. The rooms are spacious, bright and inviting with exposed hand- hewn beams and pine plank floors running throughout. The updated country kitchen with soapstone counters connects to a cozy reading room with bookshelves and wood stove, and a utility/mudroom with ¾ bath, and laundry. The formal dining room offers plenty of space for gatherings. The front to back Living Room is anchored by a woodburning fireplace, and steps out to a private sunroom, and a guest room/office. Moving upstairs, there are four bedrooms and a bathroom. The 18thcentury hip roofed, post and beam English bank barn has a huge, sweeping loft space ideal for parties and entertaining. The lower level can accommodate animals, hobbies or a home occupation. The barn is surrounded by lush green pastures, and rail fencing which lead you to a network of beautiful trails for hiking. A short stroll to The Kedron Valley Inn, KV Pond, The South Woodstock Store, and Green Mountain Horse Assn. A five-minute drive to the Woodstock Village Green. Easy access to Hanover, DHMC, skiing, golf, dining, shopping and recreation.
