This investment has even more potential for future profitability as two of the units are leased leaving the third private unit open to be rented in any number of ways. The home has been fabulously maintained and each unit has a unique charm and character of its own. The current owners apartment boasts vaulted ceilings, large windows onto a sunny and privately accessed deck, which is perfect for quiet dinners al fresco. Cooks too will love the large open kitchen that is just perfect for entertaining. This unit in particular has tremendous potential as a shorter term by the night rental as well as a longer term lease. The choice is yours! Whether it be the top floor with its bright and airy apartment and private main street access or the expansive farmhouse style ground floor 2 bedroom unit with large kitchen, impressive fireplace, charming sunroom, wood stove, beautiful beams and woodwork throughout, these are highly sought after rentals. With lots of off street parking, a two minute walk into the village to visit the bookstore or a less than half hour trip to any one of of the many local skis resorts or state parks this is a heavenly place to live. The middle branch of the Williams river just a short walk away so there's no need to leave home for some relaxation. A happy tenant is a good tenant as they say and these rentals do not disappoint. This opportunity is tun key.
