New Listing! 80 Cross Road Stowe VT

80 Cross Road, Stowe VT “The Barn Estate”
Listed for Sale at $995,000
Sophisticated and charming are the words that come to mind when you step into this renovated barn. Stately situated on the edge of a sixteen-acre meadow, the home commands views of nearby farms and soaring mountains.
Architect Graham Goldsmith, of Nantucket fame, designed the renovation. He respected the original post and beam structure and showcased its warm polished patina. Having a flair for style and drama, Mr. Goldsmith remembered the days when he would walk through barns and see the outside light shining through the barn board. Taking that concept, he installed a two-story glass window behind the barn beams that not only accents the framework on the barn but also brings views and light flooding into the living and dining areas.

This is a perfect seasonal business for someone who wants to work but doesn’t want to be tied down. In the village of Greensboro, Vermont just a block from the idyllic Caspian Lake sits the Miller’s Thumb, currently a retail store of worldly goods and Vermont products. The building is a 1700’s gristmill with all of the charm of hand-hewn beams, soft patina pine floors, and a peek hole to the river that literally runs below the building. There are many opportunities for this building besides the existing business. It would be perfect for an artist studio, museum, and/or gallery.
