About this property

Town's End, a Private Estate with Mountain Views

* 100$ off! Early December promotion, book soon! *

Welcome to Town's End, a retreat for nature lovers! Named after my father, Townsend, this custom built 3,200 sf home is at the end of a private drive with mountains on one side, fields on the other, and woods behind.

This large and private estate boasts 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 living rooms, 1 family room with games and large screen TV, fully equipped kitchen, laundry room, 2 car garage and large gravel driveway for multiple cars, patio with outdoor dining, double hammock between 2 apple trees, seating around the Solo Stove by the garden, music room with piano, children's room with play loft, and a formal dining room with vintage chandelier.

Enjoy the tranquility of our 260 acre property situated between The Green Mountain and White Mountain National Forests. Town’s End will provide you with vast, open spaces indoors and out, immersing you in a true nature’s paradise. Perfect for family gatherings. (Please note: This is a quiet retreat, no parties.)


Town's End is surrounded by over 200 private acres of untouched fields and woods. The house sits at the top of a hill, at the end of a private, well maintained, dirt and gravel road. There are a few neighbors dispersed along the the road but all you can hear from the property are birds and the owls calling to each other at night.

You will enjoy the many comforts of this spacious and modern home, custom built for our family as a summer retreat. A few South Asian items and furniture from my father's travels contrast the bright white walls and wooden beams. High speed fiberoptic internet is provided for your convenience.

Town's End is ideal for family reunions. There are 6 bedrooms (plus a couch in one of the living rooms which can convert to a bed) including the newer addition of the master bedroom which is located in a separate wing of the house. The 6th bedroom is up a flight of stairs on the other side of the house and is located in the spacious office for those seeking more privacy. Each comfortable and bright bedroom looks out on to a different majestic view of pristine nature.

Sipping coffee in our well - equipped kitchen while watching the sun rise over the mountains, you may spy a grouse, deer, or a family of wild turkeys meandering through our property. You can walk straight our back door for a peaceful stroll around the rolling hills or on trails through the woods.

The outdoor space is stunning and vast, with outdoor dining on the patio (with a newly purchased large grill) and seating near the garden. There is a fire pit / Solo Stove where you can roast marshmallows while gazing at the bright stars at night. Wood, paper, matches, and lighters for the Solo Stove can be found in the garage.

- For the months December through April, 4WD/AWD is a necessity. We privately employ plowing, sanding, and road maintenance services during winter.

Home away from home
We absolutely loved staying at Town's End! This house exudes history and family - old books, a piano, a telescope, apple trees, ample linens/blankets, toiletries, dog supplies, a hammock.... We had everything we needed for cooking, grilling, hosting local family and beloved canine friends. The surrounding garden is beautiful, and hiking from the house was so fun. Well located for easy exploration of nearby villages and hiking. Perhaps some may prefer an updated/modern accommodation, but for us, the experience of being in a family "home" made it so special. We will definitely be back!

Stay at Town's End
My family and I stayed at Town's End for a wedding and it was a great space for us. India answered all of my questions and was helpful in planning for my 92 year old mother's comfort. My husband and I walked each morning and enjoyed the scenery near the house. It is on dirt roads and reception for cell phones does not always work. I did not have a problem with this but some of my family members did. I thought it was very beautiful and the dirt roads gave a feeling of being far away. I appreciated the quick replies from India and recommend the house.

Vermont 2023
Beautiful area although a bit isolated. I found it relatively easy to go to one of the larger grocery stores nearby although the round trip was probably greater than 1 hour. The house had plenty of room for the 10 people of our party. Bedrooms and bathrooms were all good. my main concern was the step down from the dining room to the outside patio. There needs to be a formalized step rather than the large unstable rock that was there. Assuming there is a property manager who oversees cleaning etc. I would ask that they check the lighting as here were several lights that were not functioning. The middle support leg on the dining room table was loose and would angle sideways if kicked by someone sitting at the table. These are minor issues but do need to be addressed. Overall we were happy with the house and would use it again especially if we had a large party.

Lovely Getaway!
We had a fantastic stay at Town’s End. The house is so unique, with artwork and touches that are so appreciated. The beds are firm but comfortable, and there is so much space both inside and out. India is a fantastic communicator and we hope to come back some day!

About the host

Hosted by India Delphine Anna S. Swayze

Host profile image
Growing up in Washington, DC, I spent many summers in gorgeous Vermont. Being able to escape to the lovely mountains, tranquil fields and lush woods of our country home was vital to me and my family. Town's End has always been such a special, unique, and magical place, unspoiled and nurturing to the city dweller. I wanted to share this gem with you.

Why they chose this property

Town's End is located in a gorgeous and friendly Vermont town, where people value a healthy lifestyle and are supportive of small businesses like local organic farms. Especially within the past 5 years or so, the town and neighborhood has had an influx of people who wanted to escape places such as NYC and contribute to the town in unique and refreshing ways. Our property is on a private road named after our family. We bought the acreage in the 1970's after other relatives had moved to escape the chaos of city life. The neighborhood is comprised of a few houses connected by well maintained dirt roads that are essentially scenic walking trails.

What makes this property unique

Being surrounded by unspoiled nature, while staying in a very spacious house that provides you with everything you need, will rejuvenate your spirit. In terms of the house's aesthetic, I wanted to combine the simplicity of nature with the rich and sophisticated history of our family's travels. I am assured you will find peace here, and feel invigorated by the spectacular setting,
