Description

Horace Clark's Legacy A Timeless c1840 Greek Revival Step back in time and experience the enduring charm of the Horace Clark Home, a distinguished circa 1840 Greek Revival residence rich in Vermont history and architectural character. Reflecting the classical influence of the Greek Revival period, this gracious home is defined by its impressive ceiling heights, generous room proportions, original moldings, pine plank floors, and beautiful antique wavy-glass windows that fill the interior with natural light. The home's history is woven into the fabric of Middletown Springs. Local historical records note that the property became home to Dana and Clara Carpenter around 1905. Dana was a prominent village pharmacist, photographer, printer, and an active member of the community, adding another fascinating chapter to this home's story. Inside, the main level offers gracious formal and informal living spaces, including a welcoming living room with a wood-burning brick fireplace, formal dining room, and front parlor or convenient first-floor bedroom. The spacious cook's kitchen features a commercial-grade gas range, stainless steel appliances, walk-in pantry, and radiant floor heat. A full tiled bath and separate laundry room complete the main level. Two side porches, along with a private slate terrace, offer inviting spaces to enjoy the outdoors. Upstairs, a beautiful light-filled central hall leads to three generously sized bedrooms and two tiled bathrooms, one full and one three-quarter. Both walk-up and walk-out attic spaces provide excellent storage. Thoughtfully and systematically improved, the home offers updated electrical throughout, 200-amp service, a Buderus oil-fired boiler, and original hot-water radiators that preserve a connection to its historic roots. A partial full basement provides additional dry storage and convenient access through a newly installed insulated Bilco door. A special opportunity to own a piece of Middletown Springs history.
