Description
The Sky Farm of Barnet VT is finally for sale! This 50-acre off-grid sanctuary offers unparalleled privacy and sweeping, panoramic views that include New Hampshire’s Mount Washington and Mount Clay. At the heart of this unique Vermont getaway sits a 32-foot permanent wood frame yurt with stunning Timber Frame style roof beams. Also known as a Round House, this 804-square-foot structure is bathed in natural light from a central skylight and huge windows. Designed for self-sufficient living, the home features fully tile floors, an indoor bathroom, a cozy wood stove, and a wrap-around deck complete with a covered porch and a charming secondary outdoor bath. Living off the grid has never been easier or more reliable, thanks to a robust 12-panel solar system with an array of 12 newer batteries installed in August 2023, Starlink high-speed internet, a drilled well, and efficient propane heat and appliances including an on-demand water heater, range, and refrigerator. For the aspiring homesteader, the property is a turnkey dream featuring a large, utility-ready barn with a milking parlor and hay storage, alongside lush pastureland and gardens waiting to be reclaimed. The expansive woodlands, enrolled in Vermont's Current Use program for reduced property taxes, offer incredible opportunities for maple sugaring, timber harvesting, and observing the abundant local wildlife. A small rustic cabin with its own wood stove provides an idyllic guest space or studio, while a seasonal lower-field spring with a hand pump adds to the land's rich character. Whether you envision a productive farm, a lucrative and highly photogenic Airbnb retreat, or a peaceful four-season escape near the region's world-class hiking and skiing, Sky Island delivers. Accessed via a well-maintained private road and benefiting from a wastewater permit indicating a three-bedroom system, the foundation is perfectly laid for your ultimate mountain lifestyle.
