About this home
HAVING A HARD TIME FINDING AN AFFORDABLE LIVING SITUATION? With multiple income streams already established, this property offers a rare opportunity to choose your living preference (2 Bdrms, 1 Bdrm, or Efficiency) and offset almost ALL of your living expenses while owning a historic small town landmark. Originally established as the North Pomfret Store & Post Office c. 1830, this classic 3-story New Englander blends historic charm, flexible living space, and established rental income. There are multiple owner-occupied living opportunities in the larger two bedroom unit, or one of the two additional residential apartment units: Consisting of one 1-bedroom apartment, and one efficiency unit. The historic U. S. Post Office remains in place with a newly signed 5-year lease, providing stable supplemental income at $1,073/mnth to help offset ownership costs. There is also a lower commercial office currently rented providing additional income $800/mnth. Both the commercial space and the Post Office keep daytime hours with no living quarters (for additional peace and quiet). This 3,000+ sq ft post-and-beam building was re-located onto a solid concrete foundation in the late 1980s, when extensive renovations were completed. The two bedroom units has a separate mudroom entry and their own private laundry facilities. Additional features include extra basement storage and another separate large storage room for common laundry area for tenants. The wiring was redone in the 1980's and most units have separate electric meters. A new high efficiency FHW boiler was installed in 2023. The building and roof have been recently painted. There is very little upkeep or repairs needed. Located just 15 minutes from Woodstock Village, Hartford, and I-89, the property offers quick and easy access to all Upper Valley amenities.

North Pomfret, located between Woodstock and South Royalton, is a rural and historic South Royalton neighborhood with rolling pastureland and a classic village green. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the North Pomfret Road and Pomfret Road corridor, where clapboard farmhouses, barns, and a small cluster of civic buildings set a quiet, lived-in rhythm. The nearby Billings Farm & Museum anchors local agricultural heritage with working-farm scenery and exhibits. Artistree Community Arts Center adds a cultural counterpoint with galleries, classes, and performances in a restored village setting. Back roads thread through fields and forest toward trailheads and river valleys, shaping a landscape-first lifestyle.
