About This Home
As of August 2025Renovation-Ready in the Coveted 5 Sisters Neighborhood
Welcome to 59 Catherine Street—an incredible chance to own in Burlington’s beloved 5 Sisters Neighborhood. This 1930 corner-lot duplex offers timeless charm, a versatile layout, and the opportunity to build equity with updates.
The spacious main unit features 4 bedrooms, open-concept living space, in-unit laundry, and private porches. Upstairs, a separate 1-bedroom apartment—with its own entry and balcony—offers income potential or space for guests, extended family, or a home office.
While the home needs cosmetic and structural updates, the location is unbeatable. Nestled on a quiet street just minutes from downtown Burlington, the South End arts district, Lake Champlain, UVMMC, and top schools—this is a rare opportunity to invest in one of the city’s most cherished neighborhoods.
Whether you're an investor, owner-occupant, or buyer with a vision, this renovation-ready property offers flexibility, location, and long-term value. Sold as-is.
