Luxury 3BR/2BA Hygge Villa with Fireplace and Views! Pet Friendly

The History

Designed by modernist architect Ulrich Franzen in 1965 and recently renovated to capture Franzen's modernist approach, the Villa's design flows in a spiral, descending four floors. It also presents a flexible layout, a skylight, an open main floor, and a vaulted-ceiling loft. The property features three bedrooms and two bathrooms, accommodating 7-8 guests comfortably.

The estate is part of a four-home co-op that owns and maintains the 10 acres. So there are three other "condo" buildings, but no walls intersect with them, except for a mudroom. The land around the co-op is known as the Upwey Meadow Area, and the Upwey Valley Trust has acquired trails to preserve the surrounding land area, ensuring that no industrialization will occur. We can keep our beautiful meadows and gorgeous mountain views.

Heading into Town

While Ananda Vue is quiet and located on 10 acres with a farm behind it, it is only 3.5 miles from the main town area of Woodstock, VT. Woodstock is home to the Billings Farm & Museum, farm-to-table restaurants, and three historic covered bridges. The very nostalgic South Woodstock General Store and Cafe is a pleasant 15-minute walk from the Villa. They offer incredible food, even some vegetarian options, eclectic gifts, and essential pantry items. The Green Mountain Horse Association is at the base of the hill, and during the summer months, you can view the equestrian riders walking their horses on the main stage. The Famous Woodstock Inn's athletic club is 2 miles away and has an indoor swimming pool, sauna, tennis courts, and exercise classes. Adjacent to the Woodstock Inn is the spa, featuring two sunlit rooms that fill the lounging area with beautiful natural light, perfect for relaxing before and after your treatments. Just outside is the hot tub, ideal for soaking and soothing your muscles after a long day of skiing, hiking, or biking.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Ananda Vue is located on a hill, so AWD and 4WD are mandatory in Winter, as it might be challenging to ascend without them.
