Surrounded by trees, rolling greenspace, and a view of the mountains, the schoolhouse is located within the lovely hamlet of Wolcott, just 25 minutes from Stowe’s town center.

Neighborhood Overview The property is located on 4.5 acres in Wolcott with superb 360 degree views of farmlands, woodlands, meadows, and the nearby Mount Mansfield range. Wolcott and its surrounding environs have become a model for sustainable living, with organic farms, artisanal food, and farmers' markets. The schoolhouse itself is a half-hour drive to Stowe and about an hour's drive to three other superb skiing locations: Burke, Smuggler's Notch, and Jay Peak. Stowe is the closest, and definitely worth paying a visit. In Winter you can ski (cross-country and downhill), snowboard, snowshoe, or stay indoors to read, write and cozy up with a cup of hot chocolate. In Spring and Summer you can swim, hike, bike, fish, then come home and enjoy a barbecue on the front deck; in Fall, you can explore the changing foliage, farmer's markets, and the fine food at local restaurants in nearby towns. In short, the schoolhouse offers a glorious retreat from hectic city life. Keywords: Vacation Home, Schoolhouse, Getaway, Retreat, Nature Sanctuary

We had a wonderful time at the schoolhouse. Property felt like home away from home, and more. Communication with the Owner was nothing short of wonderful. Highly recommend this property and we look forward to staying there again.

Florence's schoolhouse is a truly remarkable place. Spacious, homey, historic, and quaint. The house is well stocked with everything you might possibly need, and the location is tranquil and gorgeous. I had the pleasure of staying a month during the fall and would not have wished to be anywhere else in the world. Thank you Florence!

We returned to the school house for a long weekend in February. It is our favorite home away from home and I will always be grateful that we found it! It is cozy and warm beautifully decorated and just feels like a peaceful retreat. We read, cooked, played board games and never turned the TV on - perfect weekend to connect as a family. We will be back! Thank you Florence for sharing your space with us! Cristi Q

Since our daughter was being married right across the road, our schedule was extremely packed, we were very grateful that everything was absolutely perfect and easy. All of us gushed about the accommodations and the attention to detail. Thank you, Florence. dh

My wife, two adult sons, and I just spent 4 nights in Florence's house. We enjoyed our stay very much. Cross-country skiing (at Craftsbury Outdoor Center) and downhill skiing (at Stowe) were both about half an hour away. The house offered three bedrooms and an additional place to sleep. The house was clean and comfortable, and had the best-stocked kitchen I've ever encountered in a rental house. We hope to stay there again, either in summer, fall, or winter.

My family loved our time at the schoolhouse. Our kids (aged 6 & 4) were enchanted and had no shortage of things to do and explore around the house and yard. They loved ringing the bell and jumping on the trampoline. The home has a wonderful open design, fully functional kitchen (we cooked locally sourced food every night) and is beautifully furnished. Best of all was the view! The areas has lots to do and see, every day was really an adventure. There were many unique and charming towns and country stores all within a short drive of the schoolhouse.. also state parks, swimming, festivals, local circus, breweries, farms.. too much to list here!... Would recommend 100%.
