This charming historic home was once the residence of Mary and Richard Skinner, Vermont’s 9th governor. Nestled in the heart of Manchester Village, this 6-bedroom property offers a variety of living options, including a separate 2 bedroom apartment on the third floor, complete with its own kitchen and private stairwell. Additionally, there is a 1-bedroom apartment above the garage with new flooring and paint, providing even more flexibility for additional income or multi-generational living. The current owners have thoughtfully upgraded the home, with the most notable improvement being a stunning new kitchen featuring Danby Marble countertops, state-of-the-art appliances, and a LaCanche French range. They also renovated the mudroom, laundry room, breakfast room, refinished the wood floors and the powder room on the 1st floor. Throughout the home, you'll find beautiful details such as a wood-burning fireplace, stunning wood floors, plantation shutters and cozy window seats in several rooms. The level yard, with its large stone patio, offers a private retreat despite the home's central location. Lastly, one can enjoy the village views and marble sidewalks while sitting on the expansive covered front porch. This home has so much to offer! Assisted showings start on August 31st.
