Properties Near 161 School Street Plainfield, VT

Fantastic opportunity to own waterfront property on the beautiful clear waters of the North Montpelier Pond! Swim, kayak, canoe, fish, etc. right from your own front yard. Or just take in the peaceful view of the water and surrounding wildlife. Current owners have put on a new dormer making the upstairs bedroom space larger, a new roof, and they moved the location of the kitchen so that the living room now faces the water. The garage space has a deck on the back side and is a wonderful outdoor space for relaxing by the pond. This cute house was built during the time when a woolen mill was in action. Come make this place your own! Very close to a paved road and just minutes from downtown Montpelier and I-89.
