About Property

Experience a storied stay at the Novel House, a beautifully restored historic home nestled in the heart of Manchester Village, Vermont. Originally added in the mid-1800s to the Wickham House (built c. 1790) to welcome families to the elegant summer enclave of the village, this residence is designated historic by the Manchester Historical Society and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.

Designed for modern living, the home features a thoughtful layout with 2 bedrooms, 2 beds, and 2 bathrooms, comfortably accommodating up to 4 guests. The living spaces are beautifully furnished and flow seamlessly into a newly renovated open kitchen, providing everything needed to prepare meals at home. A standout feature of the sleeping arrangements is the large en-suite sleeping porch that connects to the two rear bedrooms. For added comfort, the two full upstairs bathrooms are equipped with luxury radiant-heated floors, and a convenient powder room is located on the main floor.

While the home celebrates its heritage, it is equipped with contemporary comforts and sustainable technology, including 24/7 backup power provided by a Tesla Powerwall 2 tied to rooftop solar PV.

Location & Neighborhood The Novel House is perfectly situated in Manchester Village, allowing guests to enjoy a quiet retreat while remaining just a stroll away from the various restaurants and shops located down Main Street. The property is attached to the rear of the Wickham House.
