Clarendon is a small-town standout with big Vermont scenery and everyday practicality. Minutes from Rutland and the conveniences of Rutland County, it offers a relaxed pace without giving up quick access to shopping, healthcare, and jobs. Outdoor time comes naturally here: the Long Trail spans the dramatic Clarendon Gorge, and miles of forested paths in the Green Mountain National Forest invite four-season adventure. Cyclists and walkers love the quiet stretches of the Delaware & Hudson Rail Trail, while anglers and leaf-peepers find favorite spots along the Mill River and around historic covered bridges. Town services are easy to navigate, with updates and contacts available through the Town of Clarendon.
Families appreciate strong local schools in the Mill River Unified Union School District, including Clarendon Elementary School and district-wide programs from Mill River Schools that emphasize personalized learning and community engagement. History buffs can explore the Clarendon Springs Historic District, where 19th-century architecture recalls the area’s spa-town roots. Housing runs from classic farmhouses and hillside retreats to tidy in-town homes, and commutes stay simple whether you’re heading to Rutland’s employers or dining in nearby Wallingford.
If you’re considering a move within town or arriving from afar, Clarendon delivers an appealing blend of space, scenery, and community spirit. When you’re ready to buy or sell, Agent Pronto can connect you with a top-performing local real estate professional to guide you every step of the way.
