5-BR Vermont Retreat w/ Hot Tub & Mountain Views

Summary:
Set on 60+ private acres in West Rutland, this five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath retreat is a Vermont escape designed for both gathering and stillness. Between Okemo, Killington, and Pico, it places you within easy reach of world-class skiing, yet feels a world apart, an estate that balances mountain adventure with restorative calm. Rooted in Northeast character, the home offers thoughtful hospitality, elevated comfort, and a setting that invites presence.

The Space:
Expansive yet welcoming, the home unfolds across three levels with spaces designed for connection and quiet retreat alike. A great room with soaring ceilings opens to mountain views, while a media room and game room provide lively gathering points. West-facing windows frame sunsets over the ridge, grounding every moment in the surrounding landscape.

The chef’s kitchen is fully equipped for easy meals after a day on the slopes, flowing naturally into a dining area that encourages long, shared dinners. Each bedroom is a calm refuge with soft lighting and quality linens, promising restorative rest.

Outdoors, the rhythm of Vermont living continues: soak in the private hot tub under clear night skies, gather around the fire pit, or explore acres of meadow and woods that once shaped the property’s life as a working farm. Its history lingers in subtle details, adding depth to a setting already defined by place and presence.
