Description:
Widely believed to be the first house built in St. Johnsbury, this adorable cape oozes charm and convenience. Tucked just one lot off historic Main Street, walkability is the name of the game. Immerse yourself in the culture of St. J and stroll tree-lined sidewalks to the Fairbanks Museum, the Athenaeum, St. J Academy, Catamount Arts, local restaurants, the farmers market, and so much more. The home offers a smart, flexible layout. The second floor feels like its own little apartment, with two bedrooms sharing a communal space and bathroom. The first floor showcases original beams, fireplaces, and wide plank floors full of character. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a dining area made for entertaining, while a cozy family room, first-floor primary suite, and abundant storage round out the main level. A large formal living room currently serves as a three-season room off an oversized mudroom that connects to the two-bay garage perfect for stashing gear for whatever your passions may be. Outside, the back deck offers plenty of space for grilling, and the fenced rear yard features a fire pit and room to romp. Close to Burke Mountain, Kingdom Trails, and everything the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont has to offer.
