A truly magical setting! If you've never experienced the blissfulness of the Green River Village and its historic covered bridge and crib dam/waterfall and one of the most spectacular swimming holes imaginable, it's a must visit southern Vermont destination. Nestled in this picturesque valley village is this charming old home privately situated on 53.5 acres only a short stroll up the driveway from this beautiful waterfall scene. With its open fields, outstanding sun exposure, pond, stonework, established gardens, berry bushes and apple, pear and peach trees this setting will transport you back in time. The towering old growth sugar maples around the house are true giants and are one of the first things that will make your jaw drop as you enter the peaceful homestead. The house needs work but with this stunning location and unique property attributes it's deserving and worthy of the investment. The 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath home features original fir flooring throughout the old portion and oak flooring in the addition, a huge 18' X 34' living/dining room a fireplace and massive hearth, a country kitchen with antique wood cookstove, an office/study (or 1st floor bedroom) and a small bath and laundry on the main level and 3 bedrooms, bath and the primary bedroom suite upstairs. The central heating system was propane hot water baseboard but is not functional at present. The owner currently heats with wood only. Freshly painted in 2025. Roof replaced with standing seam metal in 2005. Property is enrolled in the Use Value Appraisal (current use) with 8 acres excluded encompassing the open land, gardens and pond area around the home site. The true southern exposure, local views of the hills surrounding the river valley, access to the river and the privacy this property provides is special and very difficult to find.

15,000 plus sq. ft. commercial/office/retail/residential building on Main St in Downtown Bennington VT. On the ground level there are two prime street front retail spaces on Main Street one the long-term home of the Bennington Banner plus a 4,000 plus sq ft flex space in the rear of the building with great access consisting of open warehouse space ideal for light manufacturing (3 Phase Power), R & D, climate controlled storage, or if you are a service provider company (electrical, plumbing and heating, etc.) in need of more space for at grade storage of inventory, vehicles and offices with easy access it is ideal space to run a service business from. Significant renovations have been completed to the interior 2nd floor of the building. This space is roughly 6,000 sq ft and is a blank slate at present but has been prepped for a residential buildout including plumbing for bathrooms, fire alarm and full sprinkler system, electrical service and other new systems in place. Informal plans have configured 2 to 7 possible apartments in this space depending on size and cost vs. income analysis OR possibly a large in-town owners' residence with skiing, hiking and other year-round outdoor recreational opportunities in the Green Mountain National Forest and Lakes and Rivers within it just a short drive away. Final state and local permits required for finalized development plan. This space combined with the flex space and retail storefronts along main street would be an ideal mixed-use income property. If creating value and optimizing income with creative development of a fantastic building is intriguing, this is an unbelievable and very unique opportunity. At this price point it would be challenging to find another commercial/residential building of this size and condition with this much potential to be solid income property with tremendous equity gain in a very quick timeframe.
