The historic Juniper Hill Farm - Maxwell Evarts House (now known as Juniper Hill Inn) located in Windsor, Vermont, is set to be auctioned by the Thomas Hirchak Company in August. Added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1988, the grand 28-bedroom colonial revival was built in 1902 by Maxwell Evarts, a prominent New York attorney and a captain of American industry. US Presidents Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, among other prominent figures, artists and celebrities, have been entertained at the mansion.
Of more recent fame, the mansion was featured in 2012 on Fox’s Hotel Hell. In the 2-part premier episode, celebrity Chef Gordon Ramsay worked with then-owners to revamp the Inn, giving it further national exposure.
Highlighted as the New England Living Show House in 2011, chosen by Yankee Magazine as the Perfect Place to End a Winters Day, and mentioned by Rachael Ray on her television program, the notoriety of this magnificent property continues more than 100 years after it was built by Evarts for his family as a summer home.
Juniper Hill Inn sits atop 14 beautiful acres overlooking the town of Windsor and the Connecticut River Valley. The 28-bedroom mansion boasts a grand dining room, bar, great hall, presidential suite, 15 fireplaces, owners’ quarters, and carriage barn, among many features. Guest rooms at the inn have been given make overs by many notable and award winning interior designers.
Thomas Hirchak Company will sell the property for its clients at foreclosure auction on Friday, August 22 at 11 a.m. The auction will take place at the Inn, located at 153 Pembroke Road, Windsor., Vt.
“It would be wonderful for someone to purchase this extraordinary piece of Vermont who appreciates its architecture and historic significance,” said Terry Owen, senior vice president of the Thomas Hirchak Company. “I would love for Juniper Hill Inn to once again be functional and engaged in the community for the rest of this century and into the next.”
Prospective bidders may call the auction house at 1-800-634-7653 for more information.
