Russell Young Farm B&B – A Vermont Gem in the Heart of the Green Mountains.
Seeking a true Vermont country lifestyle with a bed and breakfast business? Nestled in a quiet farm setting with spectacular views of the Green Mountains lies the Russell Young Farm Bed and Breakfast. Positioned beautifully on 2 parcels of land, totaling almost 25 acres, the nineteenth-century two-story farmhouse has been recently restored to perfection. Restorations and expansions include a spacious custom-built kitchen perfect for cooking classes and demonstrations. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, with great equipment, lighting, center island counter space, and more!
There are three well-appointed guest rooms with private baths. One is fully handicapped accessible on the ground floor and two are on the second floor next to an all-season common sun porch room. Here too, thoughtful touches abound from individual thermostats to heated towel rods in the bathrooms.
The Inn features a large sunny Great Room with a welcoming and enormous Vermont stone fireplace. Additionally, there is an enclosed outdoor hot tub spa enjoyed by guests throughout the year. This is a popular ‘extra amenity’ for the guests after a day on the slopes of both nearby major ski areas. In the warmer months, another central feature of the property, for owners and guests alike, is the half-acre swimming pond with a paddleboat!
The behind the scenes’ infrastructure is as good as the front of the house. An up-to-date heating plant with 14 zones is both practical and economical and is indicative of the care and attention that has gone into the property in recent years.
The Russell Young Farm is all about the Vermont views. Every room in the Inn as well as the classic farmhouse front porch has views of the Green Mountain peaks of Mount Ellen, Mount Abe, and Camels Hump. The Inn is located in the village of Jerusalem, a quiet hamlet, yet conveniently located next to the town of Bristol and near the vibrant college town of Middlebury. The close proximity to the Sugarbush Ski Area and the Mad River Glen Ski area is another location plus.
The owner’s quarters are located on the second floor with one bedroom, bath, and a large living room. There is an expansive Studio spanning the length of the building which could be used to expand the owner’s quarters while providing a potential fourth guest room from the old Owner’s Quarters.
New owners can enjoy the lifestyle of a Vermont Innkeeper with opportunities for growth and possible expansion too. Recently appraised, the Inn was appropriately offered with almost 25 wooded and open field acres and was sold by The B&B Team® in 2012.
