A rare opportunity to acquire an irreplaceable 11-acre Stowe mountain compound where the highest bidder will own one of Vermont's most remarkable luxury estates.
Vermont Business Magazine In a luxury real estate market where many premier properties remain listed for months or even years, one of Vermont's most extraordinary private estates is taking a dramatically different approach.
On Wednesday, July 22, at 11:00 a.m. (EDT), The Preserve at Wade Pasture, located at 1084 Wade Pasture Road in Stowe, Vermont, will be sold at a 100% Absolute Auction—Without Reserve. There is no list price, no minimum bid, and no reserve. When the auction begins, the property will sell to the highest bidder regardless of price.
For buyers, it represents an opportunity that rarely exists in today's luxury marketplace. For the industry, it reflects a growing trend toward transparent, market-driven sales of exceptional real estate.
Hidden behind the gates of Robinson Springs, one of Stowe's most exclusive mountain enclaves, The Preserve at Wade Pasture was designed as a private family sanctuary where craftsmanship, engineering, recreation, and nature exist in remarkable harmony.
The estate encompasses approximately 11 private acres with unobstructed views toward Mount Mansfield and includes nearly 10,000 square feet of primary living space, an approximately 1,300-square-foot guest apartment, and a 7,000+ square-foot standalone indoor multi-sport arena featuring heated athletic turf for year-round tennis, pickleball, golf training, fitness, and recreation.
Among the property's most remarkable features is a climate-controlled reinforced concrete underground tunnel that allows owners to walk comfortably from the residence directly to the sports complex—even during Vermont's harshest winter storms. The home also features extensive commercial-grade timber construction, thick concrete subfloors with silent hydronic radiant heating, Crestron smart-home automation, a secure concrete vault, executive office spaces, and a private Nordic-inspired wellness wing complete with an infrared sauna.
"This is not simply another luxury home," said Stacey Torrey, Vice President of Integrity Luxury Real Estate Auctions. "The Preserve at Wade Pasture was built to become a legacy property—one designed for generations of family gatherings, recreation, and unforgettable experiences. It offers a level of craftsmanship, privacy, and lifestyle that is exceptionally difficult to replicate today."
While professional photography captures the estate's beauty, visitors consistently say the property's true scale and character can only be appreciated in person.
"There is something unforgettable about standing on the property," Torrey added. "The mountain views, the craftsmanship, the peaceful setting, and even the walk through the underground tunnel create an experience that simply cannot be conveyed on a screen."
Private previews are now available by appointment. Tours are held every Saturday and Sunday from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. through auction day, with a final preview scheduled for Tuesday, July 21, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Because access is limited and gated, advance registration is required.
Whether envisioned as a multigenerational family retreat, executive mountain sanctuary, luxury vacation residence, or legacy investment, The Preserve at Wade Pasture represents one of the most distinctive residential offerings to become available in New England in recent years.
