Description
The same family has owned this foursquare home since being built circa 1917. Perched above the road with a dry, lush yard and a private rear, the solid bones of this house have been carefully maintained and watched over, preserving the integrity of a masterfully built structure. One can imagine that the rich woodwork is as solid, square, and polished as it was nearly 100 years ago. Yet the owners have kept up with the times by upgrading the electrical & heating systems and replacing all windows & exterior doors to ensure that the property is both comfortable and energy-efficient by our modern standards. The backyard, adorned with perennials and privacy shrubs, would be easy to fence and enclose for your animals. You could relax and watch them from the rear porch, the common entrance to the main living level. Upon entry, there is a spacious kitchen with laundry, looping through a dining room, a living room, and a foyer to the colonial revival porch at the front. The entirely remodeled full-bath is on the second floor, alongside three (or four) bedrooms and a staircase to the attic. In addition to substantial insulation and storage space, the attic features a distinctive dormer looking south over the Green Mountains. This property has withstood the test of time and is affordable living around the corner from Pine Hill Park, near the center of Downtown Rutland, and roughly half an hour from Killington Resort and Pico Mountain.
