Imagine owning the oldest home in downtown Bennington full of history and amazing detail. Built by Joseph Safford after opening Bennington's first Grist Mill, then fully renovated during the Italianate Victorian area for much of it's current design. This historic Inn along the Walloomsac River is now being used as an Air BnB rental as well as a separate leased 2 bedroom apartment. The Fully furnished and well maintained set up is turn key and ready for you to take over. Whether you want a home business, short term rental options, or just a large home for yourself for entertaining and enjoyment; this property has many options. The welcoming Victorian living area with intricate detail along with 3 first floor ensuites, and a kitchen that was used commercially, plus detailed wood work and fireplace mantles you only see in museums-this home is just breathtaking! Upstairs are several more bedrooms and bathrooms. Plus a completely separate fully furnished 2 bedroom apartment. Spacious parking area outside and large yard with mature trees and landscaping. Listen to the river flowing while enjoying the fire pit in the Adirondack chairs, or relax in the hot tub. Walking distance to downtown dining, bars, shopping, museums and entertainment.
