About this home
Step into a piece of Vergennes history at 28 South Maple Street. Originally built in 1815, this distinctive home offers more than 3,600 square feet of finished above grade living space, blending historic character and craftsmanship with a wonderfully flexible floor plan. Just two blocks from the heart of vibrant Vergennes, the home feels both connected to the community and wonderfully private. Inside, three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and an impressive collection of additional rooms offer endless possibilities for today's lifestyle. Whether you envision one or two home offices, guest space, a hobby room, library, studio, or playroom, there is room to make the home your own. The spacious kitchen is a special feature, with a wall of windows overlooking the back garden and filling the space with natural light. Throughout the home, hardwood floors, beautiful woodwork, built-ins, generously sized rooms, and architectural details speak to its long and rich history, while abundant windows create a light and inviting atmosphere. The second floor offers even more versatility, with convenient laundry space and a layout that provides opportunities for both gathering and quiet retreat. Outside, a covered porch creates a peaceful spot to relax and enjoy the seasons, while the spacious yard offers room to garden, play, entertain, or simply enjoy a quiet garden setting in the heart of the city. South Maple Street places you close to the best of historic downtown Vergennes, where locally owned shops and restaurants, the City Green, Bixby Library, and Vergennes Opera House are all vital parts of the “Little City” community. Lake Champlain, Button Bay State Park, and Basin Harbor Club are just minutes away, and Middlebury and Burlington are a short drive. With more than two centuries of history, an abundance of living space, and a location that puts the best of Vergennes close at hand, 28 South Maple Street is a special place to call home and ready for its next chapter.
Historic center-hall colonial in a lovely village setting. A signature merchant's home within a quiet National Historic Registry neighborhood, moments walk from Main Street of Vermont's "Little City". This gracious four + bedroom post and beam home comfortably blends both the casual and formal. Beautifully bright and updated, it overlooks the privacy of a broad half-acre lawn and organic gardens circled by century-old maples and pines. Distinctive details and wonderful historical character throughout are balanced with the cost savings of interior air-tight storms and ultra-efficient wood pellet boiler (plus new Buderus boiler). Wonderful potential to reclaim the original summer kitchen with its Rumford hearth, baking oven and deep window seats, a true tavern in the making. This 3800 square foot colonial is completed with full walk up attic, semi-detached, sun-filled garden workshop/studio space and under-home one car garage with ample additional storage. The very best of town and country
