Description

Prominently situated on three quarters of an acre in Burlington's Hill Section, 266 South Union Street is an exceptional 1896 Victorian residence offering significant architectural character, impressive scale, and thoughtfully updated living spaces. Fine exterior stonework, substantial stone walls, and established landscaping complement the home's historic architecture and create a commanding presence. Inside, 10-foot ceilings, beautifully proportioned rooms, natural woodwork, hardwood floors, and multiple fireplaces reflect the craftsmanship of the period. A magnificent cherry and oak grand staircase rises to a dramatic second-floor landing highlighted by extraordinary floor-to-ceiling 19th-century stained glass windows. The main level offers gracious formal and informal spaces, including living and dining rooms, an expansive family room, office, and substantial chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, generous work areas, and a large center island. The second floor is anchored by an impressive primary suite featuring a curved turret bedroom, gas fireplace, bath with copper soaking tub, and expansive custom dressing room and walk-in closet. Additional bedroom accommodations, tiled bath, laundry, and a secondary staircase complete this level. The third floor provides an additional bedroom, bath, and flexible living space for family, guests, offices, or recreation. A private apartment with its own entrance and parking, together with an attached two-car garage, provides exceptional flexibility. With its distinctive architecture, extensive stonework, mature grounds, and proximity to downtown Burlington, Lake Champlain, and UVM, 266 South Union Street represents a rare opportunity to own one of Burlington's significant historic residences.
