Description
1850 Farmhouse Cape on 2 acres just a mile from Maple Corner. Substantial improvements include upgraded insulation, a standing seam roof, updated wiring and circuit breaker boxes, a 4 year old super efficient Buderus boiler, newer compression tank and electric water heater, and a new gravity fed mound septic system. Historic features include some wide plank flooring, original softwood and hardwood flooring, and some open beams. A mantle stands in the living room where a long-ago fireplace heated the house. Some vintage lighting and doors remain. Large, open, sun filled kitchen with stainless appliances adjacent to dining room with built-ins. Handy first-floor laundry room and remodeled first floor bath. Enclosed porch with lots of windows to let the sun shine in. Many replacement windows include Anderson Silverline Low-E windows on the second floor. CV Fiber and battery back up for home office needs. Attached garage alongside a carport features ample storage space and direct entry into home. Outside, discover a sugarhouse and detached tool shed, well-established maple trees, lilacs, peonies, rhododendrons, and an old apple tree that still produces. The 2-acre site has both open and wooded areas to explore and room for more gardens and wildlife habitat. One mile from Maple Corner Community Store, the Whammy Bar, and Curtis Pond, yet just 15 minutes to Montpelier. U-32 School System. The new price reflects the groovy wallpaper you may want to replace, wood floors that could shine with refinishing, along with cosmetic updates of your choosing to make it your own.
