Escape to Serenity Now! This modern farmhouse sleeps 6 guests across 3 bedrooms and features 2 living areas plus a brand new chef’s kitchen. With post-and-beam ceilings, beautiful stone masonry, and gorgeous views from every window, this rustic retreat provides an idyllic setting for your Vermont getaway.

 

Tucked away at the end of a quiet country road, the location is peaceful and bucolic, but just 5 minutes from shopping and dining in the charming village of Chester.

LIVING SPACES

The open plan ground floor includes three distinct spaces to relax and unwind. Cozy up in the leather armchairs to watch a movie, gather on the couch to play a game at the coffee table, or tuck into the reading nook with a book.

 

The upstairs den offers even more room to spread out. Grab a drink from the mini fridge and sink into the sectional sofa as you catch up with loved ones... or just catch up on your favorite show.

 

Please note that for safety reasons, the fireplaces are not available for guest use.

 

KITCHEN + DINING

Our newly renovated kitchen features all new modern appliances and plenty of counter space. Four spots at the counter provide the perfect perch for your morning coffee, or a spot to keep the chef company with a glass of wine come dinnertime.

 

The adjoining dining area seats six, with a bay window framing views of the expansive front lawn and the dairy farm across the way.

 

BEDROOMS

Bedroom 1: King bed + large TV with patio access on the ground floor

Bedroom 2: Queen bed

Bedroom 3: 2 twin beds

 

BATHROOMS

Bathroom 1 (ground floor): Features pine-paneled walls throughout and a rainfall shower head

Bathroom 2 (second floor): Features a Jacuzzi tub with jets and a unique stone mosaic shower

 

WORKSPACES

Serenity Now Farmhouse provides two dedicated workspaces -- each with a desk and chair and 2 monitors. One workspace is located at the top of the stairs and the other is in a nook adjoining the upstairs den.

 

OUTDOOR LIVING

There are lots of opportunities to spend time outside at Serenity Now...

 

Sip coffee or cocktails on the large elevated deck off of the upstairs den, with a peaceful view of the surrounding hills.

 

Build a fire in the pit on the patio at the front of the house, adjoining the primary bedroom.

 

The gas grill is located in the covered breezeway by the main entrance for year-round use.

 

Kids and dogs will enjoy frolicking in the expansive yard, with lots of space to run and play. (The yard is not fenced, so dogs must be leashed.)

Getting around

The last stretch of your drive will be on gravel backroads, and the driveway is on an incline. Snow and ice are a normal part of life in Vermont (as are hills and winding roads) so we strongly recommend a vehicle with 4WD or AWD with all-season or snow tires for visitors traveling between November and April.

Please be sure to read the Winter Driving and Access Disclosure at the end of the rental agreement when you make your reservation. If you have any questions or concerns prior to booking, please email hello@splendidstaysvt.com

What Our Guests Are Saying

  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a fantastic stay at Serenity Now Farmhouse in Chester, VT! The property was wonderful, and everything about our stay was great from start to finish. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and genuinely have no complaints. We would absolutely recommend Serenity Now Farmhouse to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway, and we’d happily stay here again!

  • Authentic rural Vermont experience with a working farm nearby. Located near many old covered bridges. The house was beautiful inside and out. Tastefully decorated while being warm and inviting. Definitely would stay here again!

  • Love it!

  • Wonderful location and functional house. The nearby farm did not impact our experience at all and we appreciated being close to things that mattered and great access to country adventure.

  • We had a wonderful stay at the house. We brought our 2 dogs and the house made it easy to bring them. I would stay there again. Town of Chester is very cute!

  • Beautiful home in a quiet and serene setting overlooking the river valley. Feels so far away from everything but has the convenience of being just minutes away from Chester. Perfect place to relax and unwind.

  • Kate's home was such a beautiful weekend escape! Spacious, peaceful, private, and so comfortable. The beds and couches were comfy and roomy. We loved having a family dinner around the big dining room table. The home was absolutely immaculate! Views all around were blissful. The stone entryway leading up to the farmhouse is impressive and beautiful and makes the house feel beautifully connected to the landscape. We also loved walking down the manicured lawns and quiet road with our dog to say hi to the dairy cows. Next time we plan to get down to the rolling brook! Kate is a wonderful host - so responsive and thoughtful throughout. She left a personalized note and a sweet breakfast gift with Vermont maple syrup and King Arthur pancake mix, which we very muvh appreciated! Such a nice local touch! The nights were amazing too. Big dark skies full of stars! Easy to find, quiet, private, and close enough to town while still feeling like a true escape -- highly recommend! Thank you, Kate!
