Property Description
A rare opportunity to own a piece of American history! Perched on 19 breathtaking acres with sweeping views of Mount Ascutney, this extraordinary property - known as "Hilltop" - offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become the next steward of a truly remarkable place. Settled in 1912 by renowned poet and playwright Percy MacKaye and his wife, Hilltop became a gathering place for some of America's most celebrated creative minds. As a member of the Cornish Artist Colony, Percy welcomed distinguished guests including sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens and illustrator Maxfield Parrish, who shared in the inspiration and beauty of these unforgettable landscapes. Percy's brother, Benton MacKaye, visionary founder of the Appalachian Trail, spent many summers here in Plainfield, drawing inspiration from the surrounding hills and forests that continue to captivate visitors today. This magical 3+bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home exudes historical architecture and charm. Great spaces for living, gathering and enjoying gardens and nature - including a sleeping cabin and a special writer’s cabin in the woods. Lovingly held by the same family since 1911, Hilltop is more than a home - it's a legacy. Surrounded by peace, privacy, and natural beauty, this is a rare chance to own a property with deep historical roots and timeless appeal. Imagine beginning each day with the same panoramic views that inspired artists, writers, and visionaries more than a century ago. The next chapter of Hilltop's story awaits one fortunate owner.
