This property carries a genuine Vermont charm that's ready for someone to bring it back to full bloom. The picket fence and garden could use some attention, but they frame a home with real potential - especially given its unbeatable location. Just a short stroll from Island Pond Lake, the town pavilion, and all local amenities, you're positioned right where community, recreation, and convenience come together. Beyond its appeal as a primary residence, this home also offers income potential, with rental possibilities that make it an attractive option for both investors and owner-occupants. With the lake steps away and town life at your fingertips, this is a rare opportunity to shape a property into something truly rewarding.
