Attractive double lot, providing two different yard spaces - both large and level, trees, perennials, and a water feature! Ample room for a garden, if desired. This home has been beautifully taken care of, with hardwood flooring throughout, many updates, quality finishes, and natural light in every room. Very functional kitchen with granite countertops, newer appliances, loads of storage, and a nice view of the backyard as you stand at the sink. Boiler, water heater, and oil tank are all new (less than a year old), and roof was replaced in 2008 and is in great condition. The partially finished basement offers an additional bathroom, storage, laundry hook-ups, and an office / craft room. There is a wood pellet insert in the living room fireplace to keep you extra cozy in the winter, and a brand new ceiling fan to help you stay cool in the summer months. Convenient to Barre and Montpelier, I-89, Central Vermont Medical Center, just to name a few. If you are looking for a home that needs nothing, and offers an ease of living, for under 250k, this is it!
