About 297 Railroad St

This 1800's brick colonial home features 5 bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with a large sitting area and fireplace. The primary bath has been completely remodeled with a dual shower, jack and jill sinks, freestanding tub and a connecting walk-in closet. The remodeled kitchen has an AGA induction range, large wine cooler, exposed ducting and Bosch appliances. The high ceilings and window moldings are beautiful in and of themselves, but the updated lighting accentuates the unique charm of the well-maintained home. The fenced backyard yard has a covered pergola, stone fire pit, raised garden beds and chicken coop. There are apple, pear and privacy trees planted, along with a garden area filled with herbs, peonies, daffodils, lilies and other perennials. There is over 400 feet of Lamoille River frontage. The attached 2 car garage is the perfect place to rest your bikes between trips down the very close Lamoille Rail Trail (also a fantastic option for a long-distance runner or cross country skier).  In addition to those listed, there have been extensive improvements to the property. This residence is a complete package for a peaceful and full Vermont life.
