This exquisite Dorset estate brings sophisticated European charm to the pristine mountains of Vermont. Nested in the exclusive Dorset Hollow, follow the winding road through handsome hardwood forest. The stone gates of Four Ponds mark the entrance of a truly spectacular property. At their parting, one is transported beyond New England. Reminiscent of a French château, the use of natural materials grounds this expansive stone and timber residence adorned with cedar and copper. Herringbone brickwork, magnificent Tudor chimneys, old-world shutters, and intricate terraces and stone walls add to the grandeur of this build. With multiple spring-fed ponds and glorious gardens, this lush and vibrant corner of the world is a haven for birds and wildlife. The reclaimed 16th-century French front doors clad in hand-forged iron lead to the heart of this thoughtfully designed home. The 11,500 sq. ft. layout offers grand spaces for hosting, quiet corners for moments of respite, 6 ensuite bedrooms, a gym, an elevator and more. The finishes are welcoming and invigorating - rich woodworking, terra cotta tile, exposed beams, dramatic archways. With spectacular views from every window, you and your guests will revel in this sanctuary that epitomizes the balance between nature and refined society. Minutes to Dorset and Manchester with their beautiful shops, decadent restaurants, and marble sidewalks, you can indulge in the best of Vermont life while enjoying complete privacy on 18.7 acres (6.7 acres being separately deeded - an ideal location for a guest house). Revel in the arts at the Dorset Playhouse, Manchester Music Festival and Manchester Art Center. Connect with the equestrian community at the Vermont Summer Festival. Enjoy skiing at Stratton and Bromley. With helicopter service to NYC and airports close by, this can be your East Coast address. In a changing world, the safety and serenity of the Vermont mountains is an enduring comfort that stands the test of time.
