Washington, VT | 1325 Poor Farm Road

Opportunity awaits at this beautiful nearly 90 acre property tucked at the end of a scenic town-maintained road surrounded by over 300 acres of conserved land. It’s the home of an abundant sugar maple stand with the potential for over 3000 taps, a Sugar House with all of the needed equipment, a 3 bed 2 bathroom contemporary cape-style home, a rustic camp with kitchenette, hot water, and heated by a wood stove. Beyond these are two pole barns, various garden and storage sheds, a little A-frame bunkhouse, and acres of trails. The home itself has a large open concept kitchen, dining, and living room, with a long greenhouse style sunroom welcoming abundant natural light overlooking the pond and cleared pasture space beyond. The home has a bedroom and 3/4 bath with shower on the first floor, and two larger bedrooms and a small bathroom with a claw foot tub on the 2nd floor. Off the first floor is a 25 x 11 workshop and storage room heated by a woodstove. Besides the sugaring potential, this property had an abundant organic garden that can easily be brought back and expanded on. There are over 25 mature blueberry bushes, red and yellow everbearing raspberries, a peach tree, a sour cherry, three pear trees, and many old apple trees. During spring and summer, the home is still surrounded by many perennial and medicinal flowers and shrubs, such as comfrey, peonies, phlox, purple and white lilac, hydrangeas, a cranberry bush, several kinds of daffodil, crocus, and hostas to name a few.
