Village Jewel close-by Equinox Hotel & 15 min. to Skiing & Equestrian Festival

Winterbrook is a 5,000 sq ft, renovated (2023), Colonial Revival family home with room for everyone and is located in historic Manchester Village. Our home is set on a 6-acre lot in Manchester Village historic district--we are just a short walk to the Equinox pond (.5 mi.) and a delightful 5 min., stroll down the tree-lined, marble sidewalks to the Equinox Hotel. We are just across the street from the Ekwanok Country Club and the Equinox Golf course.
This property is perfect for a large group or family and has been very popular with wedding events. Many brides and brides maids have enjoyed a magical stay here. During the summer we host equestrians from all over the country during the 8 week Vermont Summer Equestrian festival. In the winter, Winterbrook is in high demand for outdoor sports enthusiasts during the prime ski weeks.
Winterbrook’s in-town location can't be beat and the privacy and amenities of the property will wow you. Our home has been selected as the backdrop for the Orivs Dog Catalogue, Spring, 2024 and was recently as used as the setting for 2025 The Vermont Country Store Catalogue. The property offers sweeping meadow views, large continually blooming summer gardens and lawn areas, fire pit, a babbling brook (seasonal) and views of Equinox mountain. The home has many access points to the beautiful grounds. A newly constructed patio, designed and built using marble and bluestone slabs sourced from the local quarries, is accessed from the kitchen and the dining room. It is a wonderful area to sit and gaze at the meadow and towering birch tree views or to enjoy a family meal. The patio is outfitted with seating for ten, with 2, 50-inch round tables. There is also a Solo stove/fire pit on the patio for those who don't want to venture to the firepit out in the meadow. A small kids' cottage in the back yard is a fun discovery--with porch and twin beds for summer sleeping.

Inside:
Our home offers spacious rooms with lots of natural light. The upstairs offers 3 en suite bedrooms. 2 of these rooms have 2 full-sized beds.
