This distinguished Federal-style home was built in 1828 as the private residence of Daniel Chipman, a Charter Trustee of Middlebury College, accomplished lawyer, and U.S. Representative from Vermont. The residence exemplifies the refined elegance and balanced proportions characteristic of early 19th-century Federal architecture.
Interior Features
The home's spacious layout showcases large, beautifully proportioned rooms adorned with classic period details. Originally designed with four generous upstairs bedrooms, a formal parlor, sitting room, and servants' quarters, the property was thoughtfully expanded in the 1970s when it became a bed-and-breakfast, adding five additional guest rooms.
The formal dining room features both a historic Rumford fireplace and an original beehive stove from the home's original kitchen. A modern commercial kitchen has been seamlessly added to the rear of the property, complementing the historic spaces while providing contemporary functionality.
Grounds & Outbuildings
Set on 5.9 pristine acres dotted with mature maple trees, the property includes a charming detached timber-frame barn complete with loft space. The location offers convenient access to hiking trails, skiing, and the renowned Middlebury College Bread Loaf campus.
