The Middlebury Cottage is a place in Middlebury's history, originally the home of Gene and Annette Lazarus, whose department store was an anchor of the downtown area from the early 1900s. The home, constructed in the 1940s, has been lovingly expanded and modernized but still retains its period arches and finishes, gable ceilings, and craftsman molded windows. The home is solar-powered with a 5 KW solar array to offset energy usage. We are passionate about living a conscious and holistic lifestyle, supporting local businesses, and embracing sustainable environmental practices. We showcase local products in the home and invite you to visit the artisans and small businesses we feature. Our family is plant-based and can offer recommendations for vegan discoveries in Middlebury and beyond. We use non-toxic environmentally-friendly products, and our goal is to move towards net-zero energy usage. There is a security camera installed at the front door and facing the garage door on the property. **Chipman Hill, which used to be the site of Middlebury College’s downhill ski area in the 1940s and 50s, is accessible just the next street up from us. It makes for a brisk hike or challenging run. It is also a favorite mountain biking destination with 16 miles of single path trails. On the loop you will encounter 3 lookouts.
