A classic Vermont farmhouse with space, flexibility, and possibilities for the future. Currently enjoyed as a spacious single-family home, the layout offers clear potential to adapt for multi-generational living or a two-family configuration with modification. For those with a bigger vision, the substantial rear barn and workshop areas may offer further possibilities, subject to permitting and approvals. Inside, generous rooms and abundant natural light create a warm, comfortable feel throughout. The main level features inviting living and dining spaces and an updated eat-in kitchen. The home has benefited from numerous improvements, including a new roof, new wood and pellet stoves within the past two years, a whole-house dehumidifier, and a long list of cosmetic updates that have refreshed the property while preserving its traditional farmhouse character. Upstairs, additional living space provides flexibility for bedrooms, office space, guest quarters, or a more independent living arrangement. The attached workshop and rear barn spaces offer excellent room for hobbies, storage, a home-based workspace, or future reimagining. Outside, the level one-acre lot is a true highlight, with mature perennial gardens, open lawn, and a picturesque brook running along the property, complete with a small private beach area. Set in the heart of North Springfield, this is a property with room to live, work, create, and evolve.
A BIG PRICE IMPROVEMENT PLUS A TOTALLY NEW SEPTIC SYSTEM (A NEW LEACH FIELD AND NEW 1250 GALLON TANK) MAKES THIS PROPERTY AN EXCELLENT VALUE! What a sweet historic home just waiting for the right person to give it some TLC to bring it back to its beautiful original state! The house is very straight and solid, so that anyone can easily live in it as they do the cosmetics to their personal taste. Attached to the main body of the house is a very nicely done and spacious in-law apartment with handicap ramp. The apartment has one bedroom; the main house has four bedrooms. They are seamlessly connected though so that if anyone needs all of the space for a large family, no problem! The grounds are really nice, very private with lots of flowers and garden areas. There are two outbuildings including an old chicken coop that was finished into three rooms years ago - with work the possibilities are many. There is also the original 2-car garage that was finished into a living area many years ago, but it's best use now would be to turn it back into a garage/barn. Plus, you will even find the kid's old playhouse. All of this with a private lot and yet located within a mile of the shopping plaza, schools, and Springfield Hospital. Just minutes from I-91, and an easy drive to Okemo Mountain Resort and other ski areas.
