You really can own this house for less than renting! Even if you put 0% down (which you can do with this property), your monthly payment including taxes and insurance will be around $950. For realsies. Plus, it's a good house, not a junky one with lots of projects to do. Not here. This two bedroom 1.75 bathroom Barre City home has recently had a complete renovation. New roof, new windows, new flooring, new appliances, new countertop. It's all new! The first floor has a dining room, a renovated kitchen (it's not gigantic, but hey, at this price?), and a pleasant living room with a Jotul gas stove for supplemental heat. The first floor also has a full bathroom with a clawfoot bathtub. Upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms, a three quarter bathroom, and loads of storage! Hang out on the Trex back deck overlooking the level and landscaped yard. The yard has perennials and shade trees. For additional storage, there's a great shed with power. Could be used as a workshop or even a play house. With this manageable lot, you won't have to spend your weekends mowing and watering the grass. Instead, you can take advantage of the convenient location and walk or bike to town, or even put a kayak or canoe in the river and do some "urban paddling". Factor in your short commute to Montpelier or Barre, your walk to town, and your low heating costs with this efficient home, and this is a winner. Small but not tiny! This house is in the flood zone but was NOT impacted by Irene.
