About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Spruce Guesthouse: A Beautifully Renovated Contemporary Barn.

Beautifully converted barn sits on 10 acres nestled amongst pines, hemlocks and birch trees. Situated in Peru Vermont, the barn is a 5min drive to neighboring Bromley Mountain, 15mins to Magic Mountain, 20mins to Stratton Ski Mountain, 30mins to Okemo and 12mins into the town of Manchester. We are also close to nearby Dorset and 17mins to the Vermont Summer Festival, a premier horse show event.
Perfect for families, couples, small groups, yoga retreats, equestrian aficionados, and those looking to disconnect.

The guesthouse barn shares the ten acre property with the main residence where the owners live. Although the homes share the land, the guesthouse is private, with its parking directly in front. The original rustic exterior reveals a mid-century inspired designer furnished interior with open living space that includes a brand-new shower with heated floors, new bathroom fixtures, brand-new lighting throughout the house, and a private yoga studio with heated floors available upon request. The hayloft on the top level has been converted into a hangout space for meditation or lazy late afternoons apres skiing or hiking.
Please note, the yoga studio has a separate entrance and requires a reservation to ensure availability as the owner often uses it. The yoga studio is also available for hosting retreats.

The barn showcases ceiling beams, heated floors, a cast iron fireplace, two bedrooms with full bathroom ensuites, on-site parking, high-speed Internet, Smart TV (loaded with Apps: Netflix, Hulu, AppleTV - login using your personal password), a fire pit and a spring-fed private swimming pond. Set back in the woods, the peaceful property is a nature lovers delight yet only 12 minutes to Manchester Center with an array of high-end restaurants and designer outlet shopping.
During winter months, the property is snow ploughed regularly and on the mornings of exceptional snowfall our plougher arrives between 6-7am to plough all common roads and then our double driveway. Main paved access roads are cleared ahead of dirt roads.

About the area:

Manchester and its surrounding areas offer several unique and unforgettable experiences.
During the winter months enjoy sleigh rides at local Taylor Farm, dogsledding, snowmobiling, local free ice-skating in the town of Peru. Try snow shoeing or Nordic skiing at nearby Wild Wings Nordic Center only a 6mins drive from the Spruce Guesthouse, and of course the world class Alpine skiing and snowboarding of the surrounding areas.
During summer enjoy the Vermont Summer Festival and Horse Show, take falconry lessons or visit the Southern Vermont Arts Center. The Land Rover Experience Driving School offers year round full day of off-road driving instructions on an 80 acre purpose built course.
Dining in every price range can be enjoyed within a 10 mile radius.
