    A hundred acres of totally secluded woods and hayfields with mountain views all around make this a perfect place to experience the tranquility of Vermont’s beautiful landscape. A westerly exposure ensures some spectacular sunsets over the Adirondack Mountains and if you’re an early riser you can watch the sun come up over the Green Mountains to the east. Sweeping lawns and a variety of perennial and kitchen gardens, together with a stone patio overlooking a large in-ground pool, all contribute to the pleasing atmosphere of Kirriemuir.

    A separate entrance leads to a private and spacious guest room with air conditioning and access to wireless internet. It can accommodate up to four people and a full bathroom is attached. It has the best view from the house!

    Well off the beaten track, this traditional country home is approached by a long, winding driveway and is situated on a rise just south of Mt. Philo State Park, not far from Lake Champlain. There are woodland trails for nature enthusiasts and opportunities for birders to observe wild turkeys, hawks, pileated woodpeckers and many other interesting native species.
