4 Valentine Ln, Bennington, VT 05201
Built in 1875 with same elements of the North Bennington train Station; this brick and bluestone spacious and solid building with Mansard roof complete with new standing seam and new kick roof is showing off some if its former glory. Let your imagination take over as you consider the many things you could do with this historic building. In former years it was the offices for a huge mill, then a carriage repair shop, owned by the public school and used as a automotive shop, then an artist using stained glass to crafts items, plus a party house with live bands. It is currently set up as a two family rental with a workshop. It radiates a French New Orleans vibe on the exterior and with some creativity and sweat equity the oddly private in town lot with Walloomsac river water front could be an epic oasis in the middle of downtown. Current owner has redone support beams and added insulation as well as connecting to the town sewer.
