The Space:
Welcome to The Modern Barn House, a thoughtfully designed mountain retreat just minutes from Stratton. Created for gathering, relaxing, and making memories together, this five-bedroom home blends contemporary design with inviting spaces for every season.
At the heart of the experience is a private cinema room featuring a 100" screen, perfect for movie nights after a day outdoors. A spacious game room with a pool table and vintage arcade game offers even more entertainment, while the outdoor basketball hoop invites friendly competition throughout the day.
The home's open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas were designed to bring people together. A handcrafted dining table seats up to fourteen guests, creating the perfect setting for shared meals and long conversations. Large walls of glass fill the space with natural light and frame beautiful mountain views, while custom lighting and a built-in sound system create a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Anchoring the main living area is the home's signature feature: a stunning 20-foot suspended fireplace imported from France. Suspended before a dramatic wall of windows, it serves as both a striking architectural centerpiece and a cozy gathering place on cooler Vermont evenings.
Four bedrooms are located on the main level, including three with ensuite bathrooms. Upstairs, a private fifth ensuite bedroom offers additional privacy, while an adjoining loft provides a comfortable space for reading, relaxing, or accommodating additional guests with two convertible twin beds.
Outside, enjoy mountain air from the spacious grounds, challenge friends to a game of basketball, or gather around the firepit beneath a sky full of stars. During the warmer months, the home's outdoor spaces become a natural extension of the living experience, offering plenty of room to unwind after hiking, golfing, exploring local farmers markets, or enjoying everything Southern Vermont has to offer.
Thoughtfully designed, beautifully appointed, and filled with spaces to connect, The Modern Barn House is a Vermont escape made for unforgettable stays.
