318 North Street, Bennington, VT 05201

Description

Versatile mixed-use property with strong potential as a duplex or owner-occupied investment in a highly visible downtown North Street location. Currently configured with a beautifully renovated 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartment on the second floor and a spacious first-floor commercial unit, this property offers multiple paths for income and future use. Zoning supports multi-family, single-family, and a wide range of commercial uses including retail, food and beverage, office, studio, and personal services. The second-floor apartment, renovated by a prior owner approximately 10 years ago, provides comfortable living space ideal for an owner-occupant or steady rental income. The first floor and basement, formerly home to a long-standing florist shop, now offer a bright, open layout with the removal of the walk-in cooler—making the space feel larger and more adaptable than ever. Recent updates include fresh paint, new flooring, LED lighting, and a convenient half bath. For investors or those seeking a full residential conversion, the layout and separate entrances offer a clear opportunity to reconfigure the first floor into a second living unit, establishing a true duplex. The basement adds valuable storage with built-in shelving, while the walk-up attic offers additional storage or future expansion potential. Additional features include separate electric meters, shared boiler and oil tank (both replaced in 2020), vinyl siding and windows, architectural shingle roof, town water and sewer, and high-speed internet. Off-street parking for both units enhances functionality. Situated along one of North Street’s most traveled corridors, the property benefits from excellent visibility, signage potential, and proximity to established neighbors like Blue Benn Diner, Wassick’s Tire Service, and the Vermont Veterans Home. Whether you’re looking for an investment property, live/work setup, or a redevelopment opportunity, this flexible property is ready to meet your vision.
