Whoopi Goldberg's House (former)

Whoopi Goldberg is the actor, comedian, and longtime co-host of The View who won an Oscar for Ghost in 1991. She is also one of the few performers with an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar, and a Tony.

The land was first developed in 1790, when the Winchester family built a house and a dairy farm, according to a 2011 Zillow Blog history. E Online put the house in the 1800s instead.

The Davisson family took over in 1969 and added acreage, per Zillow Blog. It dates their gift of 640.7 acres to the Vermont Land Trust to 1997, while a later sale notice says 1987.

Goldberg bought the farm in 2004, according to Zillow Blog. NBC reports that she extensively renovated the entire house that same year.

Zillow Blog says a 2-sided antique fireplace with a beehive oven, believed to be the home’s original center, survived the work. It also counted 22 acres of sugar bush used for maple syrup.

The farm came on the market at $2.3M in April 2011. Seven Days wrote that Goldberg was “pulling up the stakes” in Vermont.

PrimeMLS history records a sale closing in February 2016, almost 5 years after that announcement. It records another in June 2021, so the farm has since changed hands again.
