Description

A piece of Vermont's history within minutes of Stratton Mountain. In the early 1930's Helen and Scott Nearing left the city to embrace the natural environment and rural community of Vermont. Committed to living off the land and pursuing their individual passions, they built Good Life Farm, a compound of five stone structures with its main house as a centerpiece. From this property they ran their maple sugar candy and syrup business and wrote their world famous book documenting their life in Vermont,...A piece of Vermont's history within minutes of Stratton Mountain. In the early 1930's Helen and Scott Nearing left the city to embrace the natural environment and rural community of Vermont. Committed to living off the land and pursuing their individual passions, they built Good Life Farm, a compound of five stone structures with its main house as a centerpiece. From this property they ran their maple sugar candy and syrup business and wrote their world famous book documenting their life in Vermont, Living the Good Life. In the subsequent years, the main house was renovated and expanded to include a cathedral-ceiling master bedroom and more. Offering sweeping mountain views, distinctive local stonework, striking gardens, and swift access to skiing, tennis, and golf, the property continues to offer the keys to the good life. Several stone cabins and barn on nearly 11 acres with possibility of extra building lots. South facing structures allow for good sun through the day along with spectacular views of the iconic Stratton Resort!
