Built in 1789, the year George Washington was elected President, the Philemon Hazen Homestead is a rare Vermont property where history, architecture and modern luxury come together. Set among rolling pastures in Hartfords Jericho Rural Historic District, this 4,462 sq. ft. historic farmhouse feels a world away-yet is just 6 miles from Hanover and Dartmouth College, 5 miles from Norwich and less than 10 miles from Woodstock. Its 237 year history is evident in hand-hewn timbers, wide-plank floors and two original New England fireplaces, but nearly everything behind them is new. An extraordinary 202526 restoration preserved the soul of the farmhouse while reimagining it for modern living. At its heart is a sun-filled 1,500 sq. ft. kitchen and great room created from the former carriage house. Soaring timbered ceilings frame a chefs kitchen with custom cabinetry, polished concrete floors with radiant heat, and room for a 12-seat farmhouse table. Steel-and-glass doors open to the patio, gardens, stonework and sweeping pastoral views, with neighboring sheep grazing beyond. Five bedrooms and 51/2 baths include a spacious first-floor primary suite. Upstairs are four bright bedrooms-three ensuite and one with a private bath connected by a wide central hall/gallery thoughtfully lit for art. The restoration extends far beyond what can be seen: a new roof, sheathing, insulation, drywall, plumbing, electrical, appliances, and HVAC, plus radiant and hydronic heat, heat pumps, 400-amp elect
