About this House
Here is your opportunity to own a solid century home in the historic West Side of Barre City. Loved and cared for by the same family since 1967, this three-bedroom cape home sits well-appointed on a corner lot with abundant yard space and classic curb appeal. Inside is full of vintage charm with high ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, a custom kitchen and lots of nooks and crannies to explore. Just off the kitchen is a bonus room that could be an office, dining room, or even a first-floor bedroom. Upstairs you'll find three spacious bedrooms, more hardwood floors and even a large walk-in closet in the primary bedroom. The .19 acre lot is deceptively large and useable, with a partially fenced back yard and an inviting deck for outdoor recreation and entertaining. The sizable side yard has been beautifully landscaped and maintained, with many perennials just about to bloom. The 1-car+ garage offers a great deal of storage both up and down with additional attached garden shed space. This property has been the site of many warm gatherings and happy memories over the past 58 years. May its new owners enjoy more of the same!

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSpaulding offers lots of AP and honors classes, as stated in another review, and offer great opportunities for their students to go into college and the workforce with the career center. The school poses a welcoming environment, and students are treated as actual human beings. The staff are all phenomenal and caring people, which makes the school an even better place to be. Clubs and activities are abundant, with great officers and advisors.Student Review3y ago - Barre City Elementary/Middle School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school works very hard at accomodating students that need emotional, physical, or environmental supports in the classroom and to maximize learning. Most teachers I've experienced work diligently to keep parents engaged and "in-the-loop" about any additional supports their kiddo may need, or discuss any struggles they may be having while working towards compassionate and effective solutions to keep learning at the forefront. My kiddos have done well here!My only constructive note is that I wish they would develop additional programs for students that might need a faster paced learning program (intensive STEM, for example). Boredom can cause behavioral struggles at times, and I think having more intense learning programs would benefit those who need it.Parent Review2y ago
