There's something special about finding a charming cottage in one of Middlebury's most desirable neighborhoods, especially one that puts so much of what makes this community wonderful right at your doorstep! Just a short stroll from Middlebury College, you can enjoy athletic events at the football stadium, tennis courts, track and playing fields, or take advantage of the performances, exhibitions and other public offerings at the College's arts center. Middlebury's vibrant, pedestrian-friendly downtown is also close by, with its inviting shops, restaurants and community events. The house itself is every bit as appealing as its location. Gleaming hardwood floors, abundant natural light and updated bathrooms complement its comfortable, welcoming spaces. The kitchen and living areas flow easily, while a first-floor den offers flexibility for a home office, guest space or potential third bedroom. Upstairs, a generously sized landing provides a delightful spot for reading, working or play. The primary bedroom offers excellent closet space, and the spacious second-floor bathroom features both a soaking tub and a separate shower stall. Practical features haven't been overlooked, either. Main-floor laundry is conveniently tucked into the mudroom alongside a half bath, a full basement provides valuable storage, and the extra-deep one-car garage has room for bicycles, gardening equipment and more. Outside, the level yard is framed by privacy hedges, creating a lovely setting for gardening, relaxing or entertaining. Currently configured with two bedrooms, the property is recognized by the town as a three-bedroom home, offering additional flexibility for future use. With its combination of character, convenience and an exceptional in-town location, this is a wonderful opportunity to make a home in one of Middlebury's most sought-after neighborhoods. Come see what makes this one so appealing! SHOWING APPOINTMENTS beginning on 11/16/2026.
