South View Homestead, where People & Place come together in a setting increasingly difficult to replicate, is defined by its 4.9 private acres in highly desirable Shelburne that occupies an extraordinary position at the northern edge of more than 2,000 acres of conserved working and wild lands that extend south through the coveted Cheesefactory Road neighborhood toward Shelburne Pond,a mosaic of farms, meadows, forests, wetlands and wildlife habitat increasingly rare in Chittenden County. Even more, it is one of only two private residential properties nestled between Bread & Butter Farm and Killeen Crossroads Farm, the 2 anchor farms of The Agrihood Collective, a local nonprofit cultivating community through fresh local food and land-based education, and securing farmland for regenerative agriculture with farming practices intended to nurture healthy soils, clean water, biodiversity and wildlife habitat. Walk or bicycle in either direction for fresh food and flowers grown practically in your extended backyard, or stop for coffee and a bite at Blank Page Café, another Agrihood founder located at Bread & Butter Farm. Mature woodland provides privacy from the road and neighboring residence before opening to southern solar exposure and sweeping views of the Green Mountains, including iconic Mt. Mansfield and Camel’s Hump. A thoughtfully sited, era-popular architectural style home, a c.1969 Garrison Colonial offering 10 rooms, 4 bedrooms, 3 baths with updated kitchen and baths, fresh interior paint and well-maintained systems, attached 2-car garage and separate 1-bay garage/workshop, completes the offering. Location is excellent, Burlington International Airport, Burlington, Lake Champlain, restaurants, arts and cultural life, groceries and services all within easy reach. South View Homestead, a private sanctuary within an uncommon larger landscape that reminds us restoration is not something we schedule, it is something we cultivate through our relationship with place.
