About This Home
Set on 1.06 acres in a highly desirable Montpelier location, this beautifully maintained 1820 home offers a rare blend of historic character, modern efficiency, and direct access to nature. The property abuts over 9 acres of conserved meadow, providing peaceful views, privacy, and a truly special setting just minutes from downtown.
Inside, the home features 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, including a spacious primary suite with walk-in closet and private bath. The layout offers both functionality and charm, with a large second bedroom, an inviting upper landing, and a convenient first-floor half bath with laundry. Original details shine throughout, including stunning tin ceilings in the dining room, while thoughtful updates enhance everyday living. The kitchen includes a walk-in pantry, and the home is finished with a blend of hardwood, cherry, and hickory flooring.
Extensive improvements have been completed over the years, including a two-bay garage with breezeway, updated first-floor windows, and professionally designed landscaping with established gardens and stonework. The recently upgraded driveway includes comprehensive drainage solutions, complemented by a full interior basement system with French drain, sump pump, vapor barrier, and dehumidification.
Energy efficiency is a standout feature, with owned solar panels, a companion hot water system, blown-in cellulose insulation, and additional weatherization upgrades. Heating is provided by a propane forced hot air system, along with a mini-split heat pump for added comfort. With public water and sewer, a prime location, and a unique combination of land, character, and improvements, this property presents a rare opportunity in the Montpelier market.
