A rare opportunity to own a historic 157-year-old property situated on 4.48 acres in Rutland City. Rich in character and history, this spacious residence offers the charm and architectural appeal of a bygone era while benefiting from valuable Industrial zoning, creating unique possibilities for investment, redevelopment, or business use (subject to City approvals and permitted uses). The home, constructed in 1869, features a total of fourteen rooms. The first level includes two bedrooms, one bath, a kitchen, living room, and dining room. The second level offers four bedrooms, one bath, a kitchenette, dining room, and two other rooms. Enclosed porches on both levels. A detached classic carriage barn with workshop space and a second floor adds versatility for storage, hobbies, or future use. The expansive 4.48-acre parcel provides open space, and room for future planning, all while enjoying a convenient city location with easy access to downtown, major roadways, and employment centers. The property retains much of its original character but will require a complete remodel and updating. Interior components are dated, and buyers should be aware of known conditions affecting the property, including knob-and-tube wiring, insulated piping in the basement, and evidence of prior ceiling leaks. Buyers are encouraged to conduct their own inspections and due diligence regarding the property's condition. Located within an Industrial zoning district, the property offers substantial potential beyond its current residential use. Buyers are strongly encouraged to consult with the City of Rutland Planning & Zoning Department regarding permitted and conditional uses. This property is being conveyed in as-is condition, including all remaining contents. Whether you're seeking a distinctive historic home, a live/work opportunity, or a property with outstanding long-term redevelopment potential, this offering presents a rare combination of history, acreage and future possibilities.
