15 central street

15 Central Street is one of the finest commercial locations in Woodstock with two of the most creative and successful businesses as the anchor tenants. The property has adapted to changes of the course of its long history of uses including residential shop owner, a barber shop, a dance & pool hall, law office, architectural services and a variety of mercantile endeavors. Notably, the building was the headquarters of Lt Colonel Peter T. Washburn, who led the 1st Vermont Regiment troops in their crucial role at Gettysburg. He returned to become Adjutant and Inspector General to organize and direct Vermont’s military efforts through the rest of the Civil War from his offices at 15 Central Street. The current owner, recognizing it was time to adapt the building to the 21st Century, developed plans to upgrade and modernize the second and third floors for mixed use including an incredible residential unit with exposed brick walls and timber framing. The story high historic windows have been restored, and the second level has been reframed with new sheetrock for office or residential use. The third level partition walls have been removed to create a dramatic open area with views over the village to the north and south leaving the finishes and uses of the two levels up to your imagination. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a property with a remarkable history and become part of creating Woodstock’s future.
