About this home
Nothing else on the market compares! Vintage farmhouse with hardwood floors refinished throughout, all new upgraded electrical through house and out buildings, unique features in sunroom included windows a door allegedly from a church in Quebec. Kitchen has been freshened up as well as several other upgrades. There's even a root cellar - great for roots or wine. Outside the property is secluded with woods to the south and west side and has over $20,000 in fencing installed this year to keep pets in and pests out. Newly built raised garden beds and a writers studio nestled near gardens and woods completed with insulation, recessed lighting, individual electric panel for easily installed ac unit and heat unit. Detached one car garage, plus a huuuge artist studio with electric, heating and cooling, plus a bonus space upstairs with: Surprise!! a recording studio!! With frontage on historic Route 7A just up from Bennington commercial district- This space could be used for anything you can imagine-an antique shop, a restaurant, or home business. The old storage barn is ready for a hug, but could be a great storage space. Let your dreams of running a Vermont business or hobby farm come true!
First time on the market in almost 50 years, the Finckel property has been in the same family since 1970, and the time has come to pass her on to her next steward. Offering 3 bedrooms, one-and-a-half baths, large living room, light-filled dining room with access to a lovely covered porch and terrific enclosed sun porch with oversized architectural windows from a church in Quebec, this well loved Farmhouse exudes character and charm. Recent and numerous improvements include complete repainting of both the interior and exterior, wood floors have been refinished, driveway regraded, new boiler, added insulation and more. The 40 x 20 foot shop, formerly home to an antique business, could be so again or become your new studio or office. There is also a small writer's studio and large detached shed barn, offering many storage options as your needs may require. It's very rare to find a property like this on just over 2 acres. Mixed Residential /Route 7 overlay zoning provides you with many possibilities. That's what it's all about! A pleasure to show. ..
