Sugarbush Announces Plans for New Slopeside Residences

Warren, VT – Sugarbush Resort is planning its next phase of real estate development at Lincoln Peak. With the Vermont ski and snowboard resort’s Clay Brook Residences now 85 percent sold, resort officials cite demand for additional ski-in/ski-out condominiums ranging from two to five bedrooms in announcing their plans.

Sugarbush has retained The Design Group of Warren, Vt., for architectural and master planning services for the next phase of development at Lincoln Peak. Jim Edgcomb and Jeff Schoellkopf, partners in The Design Group, are local architects retained to design and build Vermont vernacular structures with a focus on energy efficiency and long-term durability. These new homes will be built in phases beginning with the new Rice Brook Residences that are planned to house six townhomes and nine condominiums in three buildings. All residences are intended to have underground parking.

The new development will be designed to create connectivity between the new Lincoln Peak Village, the existing base area and historic Sugarbush Village in all seasons and to fit architecturally with Clay Brook and the three new base lodges, The Gate House Lodge, The Farmhouse and The Schoolhouse. Ski access in and out of Sugarbush Village will be maintained, pedestrian connectivity will be improved and parking spaces created for Sugarbush Village businesses as part of the development plan, resort officials indicate.

“Despite the challenging economic and real estate climate, we are encouraged that there are Sugarbush families interested in making a further commitment to the Valley,” said Win Smith, President of Sugarbush Resort. “We are attempting to put together a plan that builds upon our vision of making Sugarbush a better place for all and one that reflects the character of our great Valley and will benefit others in the Valley.”
