Historical charm and modern sustainability - this beautifully restored Vermont cape offers the best of so many worlds. Generously-sized, light-soaked rooms are bright and spacious but maintain historic details including original doors and pine floors on upper level. Enjoy worry-free and low-maintenance living as this home has had thorough updates. The entire first floor has been newly renovated, whole-house electrical updated, Efficiency VT insulated, and new appliances, plus a new mudroom added this winter. Option for a second full bathroom on the second floor is waiting for your choice of unique finishes to be complete. A 10.2 kw solar array, two Tesla Powerwall batteries, heat pump, and heat pump water heater all installed within the last couple years offer sustainable and affordable winter heating, summer cooling, and maintain whole house power even when the grid is down. Further reduce your carbon footprint by taking advantage of easy walking distance to Bethel village offerings, schools, and the White River. If you're looking for a bit of peace and serenity, enjoy an afternoon in your secluded backyard sitting by the babbling brook. Or take a hike to enjoy nature and wildlife on your private trails that continue to the Bethel Town Forest trails and lookout. With commuting convenience not only to the village, but a 5 min drive to I-89, 20 mins to Woodstock VT, and 30 mins to Killington, VT and Hanover, NH. EC Fiberoptics Internet is also available.
