Description:
Step into this beautifully built post-and-beam house by well-known local builders Blue Heron Construction. Built in 1989 in classic Blue Heron style with an earthy exterior and a warm, glowing, golden interior, the house retains its original features, just waiting to be embraced by its next occupant. The location of the home couldn't be better, nestled on 9+ secluded acres in North Bennington. Create your own walking trails or explore the lovely rural roads in the neighborhood. Practical and cultural amenities are just minutes away by foot, car, bike or snowshoes. Entering the home through the brick-floored mudroom, you arrive in a large, open living/kitchen area with high ceilings, exposed beams and a cozy wood stove. Surrounding this inviting space, you will find a master bedroom with bathroom annex, a dining room, an office/library, and a second ground floor bedroom. Up the bespoke wooden staircase are 3 more rooms with bathroom and separate entrance, perfect for extended family or multi-generational living. Back downstairs, you will be stunned by the size of the huge, heated workshop, with plenty of room for a woodworker, potter, jeweler, painter or sculptor to work their magic. Above this workspace is a large second-floor studio apartment with private entrance and a spacious screened porch. A substantial barn/garage with a loft area provides even more space for vehicles, equipment, storage, or future expansion. If you're looking for multi-generational living, short or long term rental opportunities, or room for home-based business, this house could be perfect for you. The property is accessible from College Road but also has approximately 100 feet of road frontage on Matteson Road which could present future building opportunities, subject to local approvals. This house is a spacious North Bennington jewel. Move in right away, or take your time with a retrofit, as this house offers the versatility and flexibility to be whatever you want it to be.
