About this property

Three story Vermont Homestead with five bedrooms exquisitely designed with an open floor concept. Large chef kitchen and a banquet dining room for groups who enjoy good food. You can also enjoy the sunset on the large deck surrounded by flower gardens or get up early and view the sunrise on the front porch overlooking the valley and Ascutney Mountain. Every season has its beauty on this property, but the view and foliage in the fall is spectacular. In the evenings you may decide to retreat to the hidden, upper stone patio surrounded by fragrant landscape. This property also offers a sugar house and sugaring in the winter and spring. If the time is right, you may also be able to enjoy our blueberry, pear or apple season. The homestead sits on the very top of 10 acres of private land with only 10 minutes to surrounding villages like Woodstock and Quechee and only 35 minutes from Killington. During the month of March, April, and May this property may be available for a discounted, monthly fee. For winter travelers, a 4-weel-drive vehicle is highly recommended.

Wonderful New England Thanksgiving

This is the perfect house for a family. Plenty of space. Every amenity. Clean and comfortable. We did all of our cooking at the house and the Kitchen was perfect for cooks. Great range, 30" double ovens, all of the cooking gear you need. We would highly recommend this house for a family!

Lovely Fall Weekend

This house is well located -- under 10 minutes to Simon Pearce! It's a charming ride up a hilly road so the views are lovely from different rooms and several outdoor spaces. The kitchen is large and well-equipped. Quirky placement of light switches! Our host was gracious and friendly. This home worked really well for four couples (with a third-floor bedroom to spare). Thank you, Briana!

A sad time made happy

We needed a place near Hanover to stay so we could attend a memorial service for my parents. Hill Top Garden was perfect. The house is surrounded by beauty and peace. The view of Mt Ascutney looked like a Vermont postcard. Briana is a thoughtful hostess. The beds were all so comfortable with warm quilts and extra blankets in every room. I only wish I liked to cook, because the kitchen was stocked with so many neat gadgets that I am sure experienced cooks would love. I would have liked to have more time to walk and explore the property, because it offered Vermont beauty with so many places to sit and just enjoy the views. This place was exactly what we needed. Thank you Briana.

Quiet and Serene

When we arrived, we were stunned at how beautiful the house is and you can tell how much love Briana has put into her home. The listing did not do the location justice. We had everything we needed and we're so comfortable during our stay. We didn't want to leave. Our host was communicative and helpful. The house was clean, spacious, and had so many breath taking views. I hope we can return one day.

Picture Perfect Vermont Home

Spacious house perfect for large groups. It has everything and more you could need. Gorgeous views and the grounds were beautiful! Perfect place for quiet mornings of coffee on the porch watching the sun rise. Fall foliage was spectacular.
