Description
Exceptional historic residence in the heart of Old Bennington! This stately home has been beautifully maintained and is rich in architectural detail including original floor boards, three large fireplaces and exposed beams. Enormous gourmet kitchen with high end appliances, soap stone countertops, a large island, butler’s pantry with a second refrigerator and a large seating area. The large living room features a central fireplace, looks onto beautiful Monument Avenue and leads to a large sun porch filled with natural light. The dining room is full of colonial charm and features a huge, original fireplace and is large enough for a banquet size table. This large home has been thoughtfully upgraded throughout the years and has wonderful practical aspects such as full insulation, a large laundry room, walk in coat closet, ample storage throughout and a cavernous basement featuring original stonework. Five bedrooms (two en suite) with beautiful wooden floors and moldings, three and a half baths (all updated) and a large parlor with a wood stove complete this amazing home. The park-like grounds are approximately 2 acres and feature a large two car garage. This is the best of both worlds – living on the most desirable street in southern Vermont with bucolic views to the west and amazing sunsets all year long. Quick trip to train and airport make this an ideal residence for those that require proximity to New York or travel extensively.
