Fixer in the village! If you are eager for a satisfying project, where you can bring back to life a home that will serve future generations, this is it! An 1850s farmhouse with generous and flexible layout. Main floor currently has a kitchen, dining, living room, bedroom and 3/4 bath. Upstairs are 3 more bedrooms, a bonus room, and full bath. Softwood pine floors suspected underneath all the carpeting. Basement is accessed from interior only, has a dirt floor and stone foundation. Attached shed offers convenient storage & holds the fuel tank. Slate roof. Exterior white vinyl siding. Mix of old (wood) and new (vinyl) windows. Public water and sewer. High-speed internet and cable available with Comcast Xfinity. The BEST feature is the covered front porch that overlooks the Paran Creek waterfall, an incredibly relaxing view and sound! Steps away from beloved village amenities (in order of proximity): Pangaea, The Roasted Bean, Powers Market, McCullough Library, water fountain, Left Bank Gallery, Marigold's Pizza, Kevin's (bar & restaurant), skate park, The Village School of North Bennington, Park-McCullough Governor's Mansion, and Lake Paran (swimming, kayaking, fishing, concessions, fireworks on 4th of July). Sidewalks to Bennington College, ideal for student or faculty housing. Selling "as is" (which means Seller will not be doing repairs prior to closing). Requires cash, conventional financing or rehab loan. Will not qualify for low down payment programs.
