Newly remodeled historic home. Located in one of the best neighborhoods in Bethel, Vermont.

ALL NEW plumbing, electrical wiring, heating (oil-baseboard hot water), standing seam metal roof, windows and insulation. New floor tiles in kitchen, laundry and bath areas. Original hardwood floors, design & character.

On one-half acre, with a low-maintenance yard with town water & sewer. Conveniently located up the hill, just a few blocks from the downtown village area. High speed DSL available (or free wi-fi downtown).

3-4 bedrooms

2 baths (1 full (with tub/shower combo, the other 3/4 with shower)

Plus entryway, living room, dining room, kitchen with pantry, generous laundry room, and a sunny covered front porch.

Also has a storage shed that could be used as a one-car garage or carport. There is also plenty of storage in the rustic cellar.

The home sits on a generous half-acre of existing lawn. There is plenty of sun for a large garden, playground, or whatever you would like to make of it. Currently it is low-maintenance lawn, ringed on two sides by woodland with a crab apple tree in front.

A beautiful bay window with the original stained glass insert and window seat is the focal point of the living room.

This room also has the original hardwood floors, an opening to the entry way and an opening to the dining room.

The kitchen sports an island with easy-to-clean stovetop & oven. There is also an overhang, a convenient spot for bar stools.

The kitchen also has a door to the backyard, a pantry, and door to a front porch. It is sunny and welcoming, the natural heart of activity in the home.

Portion of kitchen. Includes refrigerator, diswasher, unique bay sink.

The laundry room off the kitchen (near the back door) also has a separate slop sink, as well as washer-dryer hookups, and plenty of room for more storage or a work station.

Sunny and inviting. An upstairs room off one of the bedrooms -- spacious enough for an office, studio, playroom, you-name-it.

Front foyer with stairwell & front door.

Through the remodeling process, I was careful to keep this home's historic character and charm.

Details like original hardware set this house apart. It remains consistent with Vermont's historic vernacular style, yet has all the conveniences of new roofing, plumbing, heating, electrical wiring, energy-efficient windows & insulation.
