Windsor, VT Homes for Rent

Windsor, nestled in the shadow of Mount Ascutney and along the Connecticut River, is a historic township with around 3,500 residents. Known as the "birthplace of Vermont," it offers a mix of outdoor recreation, shops, and dining options in its small downtown area. The neighborhood has seen an influx of younger residents since 2020, drawn by the remote work lifestyle. Homes vary from late 1700s and mid-1800s builds to Cape Cods and ranch-style homes from the 1930s to 1950s. Properties range from smaller lots in town to expansive country lots with dense woods or open farmland. Windsor's crime rate is lower than the national average. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy Paradise Park's trails, Mount Ascutney's revived recreational facilities, and canoeing or kayaking with Great River Outfitters. Downtown Windsor features Artisans Park with Harpoon Brewery, Silo Distillery, and more, while Windsor Station Restaurant and Barroom offers a unique dining experience in an old train depot. The Autumn Moon Festival and a year-round farmers market add to the local charm. Windsor School serves pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The town is well-connected with Interstate 91, U.S. Route 5, and daily Amtrak service, with Claremont, New Hampshire, just 10 miles away.
