896 Route 2, Middlesex, VT 05602
About this home
896 US Route 2, Middlesex – Versatile Two-Unit With Immediate Upside This established two-unit property offers a central Vermont location and clear potential for increased rental income. Both units are fully self-contained with private kitchens and baths, making the home simple to manage and immediately usable for a range of living setups. The main residence is a comfortable 2-bedroom unit with an open kitchen and living area that makes great use of the space. The second unit has its own entrance and includes a full kitchen, bath, bedroom, and combined living/dining area—an efficient, well-designed layout. Positioned between Montpelier and Waterbury with quick access to I-89, the property provides reliable year-round accessibility. While Route 2 brings some activity, the private back porch and yard offer a quiet outdoor area set back from the road. Current rents sit well below typical market levels, giving new ownership immediate room for income growth. With a steady rental history, practical floor plans, and consistently strong demand in the area, this is a straightforward opportunity to own an income-producing property in a convenient location.
