Enfield, New Hampshire
New meets old at this completely remodeled farm house situated on nearly 100 acres with stunning westerly views. Outdoor amenities provide year-round fun and include a swimming pond, a modest apple orchard, and open fields at the top of Shaker Mountain. The c. 1810 post-and-beam farmhouse features gorgeous original pine floors, a blend of antique and new furniture, hand-woven rugs, and charming details throughout.
The first floor has a brand new open kitchen / family room with stunning views to the west and an iconic Malm fireplace, an adjacent dining / living area complete with wood stove and exposed beams, a full bathroom with tub/shower, a comfortable den that doubles as a 5th bedroom (with king-sized pull-out bed), a half-bathroom with vintage barn door, laundry, and the private master suite. The master bedroom has a queen bed, a cathedral ceiling, and windows facing beautiful views on three sides, while the bathroom includes a custom double vanity and large tiled shower. There is also a twin mattress that can be pulled from under the bed, perfect for a child or low-maintenance adult.
Upstairs, three additional bedrooms with their own shared gathering space and a bathroom with shower provide plenty of room for family and friends. The west-facing bedroom has a queen bed and the best views from the house. The south-facing bedroom has a pair of twin beds and overlooks the orchard, and the north bedroom sleeps three in twin bunk beds as well as a single. Between the bedrooms, there is a spacious sitting area / play room, perfect for quiet reading or playful children, depending on the crowd.
The property is situated at the end of a town-maintained dirt road, offering total privacy. There are 50-mile views facing west to Vermont, and the sunsets are sensational. Several small outbuildings dot the property, and the orchard contains more than 20 apple trees of various types. There are high-bush blueberries, raspberry brambles, and wild blackberries. The spring-fed pond across from the front of the house has a sandy bottom and a center depth of roughly 8', making it perfect for cooling off on a summer day.
Shaker Mountain Farm is accessible and inviting all year round. The house is 2 hours from Boston and 5 hours from New York City. There are some great skiing options nearby: 25 minutes to Mount Sunapee, an hour to Killington, and only a few minutes to family-oriented Whaleback Mountain. Dartmouth College is less than 20 minutes away, and it's 30 minutes to Woodstock, VT, or 25 minutes to Sunapee State Beach.
Fantastic house, great property, and amazing views. Extremely attentive host. We hope to go back soon!
Wow! We loved our stay here at Shaker Mountain Farm! The place was perfectly clean and inviting. The beds were cozy and perfectly fit our family of 8 (with room to spare). We picked apples in the morning and enjoyed the amazing scenery around the property. The area felt so isolated and private, but was still quite close to everything we wanted to do. We loved our stay and would highly recommend this VRBO.
This property was everything it says it is and more. Beautiful jewel. Did have a glitch getting in but the owner was quick to respond and helped us get in. Definitely would go back.
Loved this; it was really pretty and very neat and tidy. Super spot!
Lauren's home was absolutely amazing. I was there with friends for New Years Eve, but when I was there - I texted my family that we should come up together to Lauren's home. Lauren was extremely attentive to my messages and detailed in her instructions and responses. There was also a very helpful notebook with instructions as well. Two fireplaces added significant coziness to the stay, as well as many blankets and comfy couches. Every room was very clean. The best part was the 100 acres to frolick in. There was fresh snow when I was there, so we went sledding with sleds in the garage and build a massive snowman. The stay was amazing. Thank you, Lauren!!! You were an incredible host.
The place is awesome. A mix of old and new, so clean, bright, perfect for a getaway with friends and family. This is our 2nd time and we hope to come back again. I also really appreciated all the organic cleaning products :)
Our stay was amazing. The house and property were beautiful and had everything we needed to keep us comfortable. We definitely plan on coming back!
The house exceeded expectations! The owners were accommodating and responsive. We hope to be back to this amazing property in a truly unique piece of New Hampshire.
We all had a great time, felt like home. The sunsets were amsome and the stars at night felt like you could reach out and touch them.
Lauren's house was perfect for our stay in the area. The house was beautifully renovated and fit 8 of us comfortably. The most memorable feature, however was the property with its amazing views. Perched at the top of a hill, the sunsets were spectacular - all enjoyed with a glass of wine while sitting on the adirondack chairs. We hit raspberry season at its peak and enjoyed a large bowl of raspberries every morning with our breakfast. Thank you Lauren - we hope to come again some day!
