1245 Goshen-Ripton Road, Goshen, VT, 05733 | $2,495,000

A true hidden gem rich with character, this remarkable property and surrounding 20 ac offer a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Whether envisioned as a hospitality venture, private estate, or a residence with meaningful income potential, the possibilities here are as expansive as the land itself. Steeped in history and local lore, the property captures the magic one expects from a storied mountain retreat with a devoted following. The main inn, dating to the early 1800s, features 11 guest rooms, each with a private bath, along with a library, welcoming front sitting room, and a sun-filled greenhouse room lush with plants and warmed by a cozy woodstove. The kitchen opens to a spectacular dining room anchored by an impressive fireplace and surrounded by windows that frame the natural setting. Additional accommodations include the recently updated Blacksmith Shop, ideal for guests seeking added privacy, and the Moosalamoo Cottage, which serves as an auxiliary bunkhouse. Set farther from the road at the end of the drive, the four-bedroom timber-frame residence (c. 2002) overlooks a tranquil pond and sauna, offering a peaceful owner’s retreat. For generations, guests and friends have returned to this special place—gathering in summer for music and pizza by the pond, hiking, biking, and trail running, and in winter for skiing and snowshoeing directly into the National Forest bordering the property. This is more than a property; it’s a legacy and an experience unlike any other. Square footage breakdown: Inn~6902sf, P&B House~3578sf, Moosalamoo Cottage~576sf, Blacksmith Shop~903sf.
