Burlington VT Old North End Homes for Sale

Living in Burlington’s Old North End

The Old North End developed largely in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and remains one of Burlington’s most compact residential neighborhoods. Housing includes older single-family homes, duplexes, multifamily properties, condominiums, and smaller lots that reflect the neighborhood’s historic development pattern.

North Street and North Winooski Avenue serve as important commercial corridors, with restaurants, markets, neighborhood businesses, and services within easy reach of many homes. The neighborhood is also close to downtown Burlington, the Intervale, the Burlington Greenway, and the Lake Champlain waterfront.

Buyers considering the Old North End should expect more variation in housing type, condition, parking, and lot size than in some of Burlington’s newer residential neighborhoods. That variety is part of what makes the area distinct within the city.
