8 Richardson St

The best of Montpelier - an in-town home in sight of the golden dome, perched high on a sunny hill with beautiful long-distance views yet only a stone's throw to the State House lawn, downtown, Hubbard Park, and the Saturday farmer's market. This 1918 house (on the Historical Register) has been TOTALLY renovated and updated - every inch of it! The result is incredible and gorgeous - the open and airy feel of a modern home with the best of yesteryear lovingly maintained. The original woodwork has been hand sanded and polished including the striking stairwell with window seat, all the floors, and the solid wood front door. All new windows showcase tree-top views and all-day sunshine. The kitchen is a chef's dream with lovely quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and Bosch appliances. A spacious dining room has a bay window overlooking the town and sliding glass doors to the deck and yard. A wood stove and custom built-in bookshelf & cabinet make the living room a cozy place to watch the snow fall in the winter. The primary bedroom has a custom cabinet closet and gorgeous bathroom with a steam shower and marble tile. The original stained-glass window remains a centerpiece and a suncatcher. Two bedrooms and a full bath with jetted tub and the laundry are also on the 2nd floor. The attic is perfect for an office, gym, or studio. Post and beam shed is a great bonus. All new in last 6 months: roof, heating, electric, plumbing...everything!
