Charming and move-in ready, this cozy Middlesex cape sits on 1.5 acres with a mix of open, level yard and hilly wooded backdrop, offering both usable space and privacy just minutes from Montpelier. Inside, a bright entry opens to a spacious living room with a wood stove and large windows that fill the home with natural light. The generously sized eat-in kitchen offers ample counter space, an original cast iron sink, and a light-filled dining area with coffee bar. Just off the kitchen, the combined laundry and mudroom provides access to the yard and includes a brand new all-in-one washer/dryer for added convenience. On the opposite side of the home, you'll find two nicely sized bedrooms and a 3/4 bathroom. Upstairs, a large open area creates the perfect study or bonus space, and beyond you'll find the spacious third bedroom. Over the past year, major improvements include new flooring in the entry and living areas, a new propane boiler, upgraded electrical with a new panel, and added insulation with moisture management in the basement and crawl space-giving buyers real value and peace of mind. Outside, the yard offers a fenced area for pets, a lean-to for extra storage or workspace, a large storage shed, and an open deck area that's ideal for summer dining and gathering while taking in mountain views across the open field. Located minutes to local favorites like Red Hen Bakery, Roots Market, and Camp Meade, with easy access to I-89, this property combines classic Vermont charm with meaningful updates in a convenient location!
