Description
Highgate Home with Detached 2-Car Garage on 2.51± Acres This 2.51± acre property along the U.S. Route 7 corridor offers a practical combination of land, accessibility, and residential flexibility. Set back from the roadway, the single-family home provides privacy while remaining close to local services and major routes. The home offers two heat sources, providing options for seasonal comfort and added reliability. The layout works well for full-time living, rental use, or as a starting point for future updates or improvements. A key feature is the spacious detached 2-car garage, offering ample room for vehicles, tools, equipment, or workshop needs. The home also includes a nicely sized deck that expands the outdoor living space and provides a convenient area for seating, grilling, or enjoying views of the surrounding yard. The 2.51± acres offer a mix of open yard space and light tree cover, creating options for gardening, pets, small projects, or general outdoor activities.

Interstate 89 is a short distance away, allowing efficient travel to St. Albans, Burlington, and the Canadian border.
