James Hilton's definition of Shangri-La was "a remote idyllic hide away." We now offer such a place. Nestled in the hills of Pawlet on +/-64 surveyed acres is this serene paradise abounding with wildlife and natural beauty. You enter on a beautiful winding drive coursing through hardwoods and are immediately drawn by the splendor of this unique and special compound with a large spring fed pond, streams and a waterfall with bridges and walkways, gardens and views. The main log home, 2 bedroom guesthouse, and small bunkhouse are situated to take full advantage of the distant, inspiring views over the Mettawee Valley. The main home has a kitchen with island, bay window (views), cathedral ceiling breakfast nook, a cathedral ceiling living room with wood stove, cathedral ceiling sunroom with marble floor and circular marble terrace overlooking pond, a bedroom and full bath down. Upstairs there is the primary bedroom and bath with cathedral ceiling and sliders to a balcony to take in the views. There is also a 2 story guest house with a large open room with wide plank floors with a wood stove and 1/2 bath on the first level and 2 bedrooms, a full bath and a large cathedral ceiling eat-in kitchen with deck overlooking the pond on the second level. Seldom do we offer a property that captures Vermont's natural beauty to the degree as does this artfully created retreat. The wildlife and total serenity of this magical world have to be seen to be believed!
