231 Main St, Montpelier, VT 05602

This is a well-kept and move in ready three bed, two and a quarter bath cape with many recent updates. Two stories and a walk-out basement provide ample living space as well as storage and a workshop. There is one bedroom on the first floor and two on the second floor, which includes the primary bedroom. The first and second floor each have a full bath and a half bath is located in the basement. The first floor features an open floor plan. There are hardwood floors throughout, except in the bathrooms. Roughly half the basement has drywall and recessed lighting and only requires flooring to be a bonus room. The house is kept warm and comfortable during the colder months through a combination of new heat pumps, a high efficiency propane boiler, and a wood stove located in the basement. Southern exposure keeps the house sunny and bright year-round, and the sizable back deck is a great place to relax and enjoy the views of the willow trees and soak in some sunshine. The 0.52 acre lot has a great backyard. There is a nice lawn and a boardwalk over a small stream that leads to a private retreat at the back of the property complete with a fire pit with wrap-around bench. Updates in the last five years include a new roof, new front walk, updated kitchen appliances, new and refinished flooring, refurbished and upgraded windows, and installation of two heat pumps. This stylish and yet practical home located on over half an acre will give you the balance of convenience and space within walking distance of schools, the college green, and the vibrant community of downtown Montpelier.
