Charming antique-style home close to downtown. Original architectural designs are highlighted by the new exterior paint. The first floor features a kitchen, living room, a large full bathroom which have all been freshly painted, and a dining room. Wood floors adorn the living and dining rooms, complemented by a artfully detailed staircase leading to wood floors throughout the second floor, where you'll find three bedrooms and a spacious storage closet in the hallway. Mechanical systems in the basement have been completely updated in the last 3 years. The furnace has been converted to propane with a smart thermostat, and a hybrid water heater has been installed. Plumbing has been upgraded with PEX tubing and a centralized manifold system. The home also boasts an updated 200-amp electric panel and closed-cell spray foam insulation on the basement walls. Enjoy a small deck off the kitchen overlooking the quaint backyard - perfect for greeting your friendly neighbors. All of this is within walking distance to Bennington Elementary, downtown shops and restaurants, Bennington's walking trails, and recreational areas. A must-see!
