Welcome to 253 Main Street, the historic "Hatch-Bower House" an iconic brick Federal residence in the heart of Norwich, Vermont. A meticulous recent renovation has preserved its historic integrity while introducing modern upgrades, including a new kitchen, updated bathrooms, a luxurious primary en-suite, reconstructed main chimney, new septic system, air conditioning, and integrated smart-home features. The main house offers four bedrooms and four and a half baths, with all bedrooms featuring gracious ceiling heights and abundant natural light. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen includes a cozy fireside seating area for everyday living and entertaining. A butler's pantry adds function and storage, while a formal dining room and front living room provide additional space for gatherings. Two dedicated offices offer flexibility for remote work or creative use. A private one-bedroom, one-bath in-law suite with its own full kitchen and separate entrance, adds versatility while remaining connected to the second level. Sustainability features include efficient insulation and a fully owned micro-grid with a 10kWh solar array and a 13.5kWh Tesla Powerwall, providing overnight energy and reliable backup power. Outdoors, the property is equally enchanting. Landscaped gardens bloom from spring through fall, while a private bluestone patio with firepit and BBQ area sets the stage for summer entertaining. A newly crafted front stone wall frames the home beautifully, adding dimension and a sense of timeless luxury. The extended farmer's porch offers the perfect spot to relax, unwind, and take in the changing seasons. Located in the vibrant village of Norwich - known for its strong community feel and top-rated schools - this home offers easy access to scenic trails and local favorites like Dan & Whit’s General. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored piece of Vermont history.
