St. Johnsbury, VT | 179 Mount Pleasant Street

"If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.” This beloved quote, attributed to Cicero, feels especially fitting here. Thoughtfully cared for perennial gardens, built-in bookshelves, and inviting little nooks perfect for curling up with a good book give this home a warmth and personality that’s hard not to fall for. Yet beyond the charm, this property offers the luxury of in-town living without giving up outdoor space or privacy. The main level welcomes you with a spacious entryway/mudroom complete with a closet, room to greet guests, convenient washer and dryer behind folding doors, plus a half bath. The kitchen opens comfortably to the dining area and sitting space, where a wall of windows brings the outdoors in and frames beautiful views of the backyard and gardens. Just beyond is the spacious living room with built-in shelving, along with a cozy den offering even more flexible living space. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a bonus space ideal for an office, reading room, hobby area, or whatever suits your lifestyle. A two-car garage adds convenience, while the open deck overlooking the yard feels like the perfect finishing touch...an inviting place to sip your morning coffee, open a favorite book, and enjoy the gardens in bloom.
