Overview
Historic Middlebury Office Building For Sale
This historic structure, a prominent feature in downtown Middlebury since 1814, replaced the original courthouse on this site in 1883. Designed by Clinton Smith of Middlebury, it was described in the Middlebury Register in 1883 as being of mixed architecture with Queen Anne features and declared the handsomest courthouse in the state. The facade exhibits both picturesque and ordered qualities, with asymmetric massing and varied details in stone, brick, wood, slate, and glazing, held together by articulating brick panels. The design, considered up-to-date for Vermont, reflects the panel-brick style popularized by leading architects in Boston, New York, and Philadelphia. The architect, while local, infused the design with his personality and craftsmanship, maintaining sensitivity to the setting. The courthouse remains a good neighbor to the earlier structures on Court Square, prominent but not overly assertive. Currently used for office space, the property retains many original architectural details. It includes an elevator and is fully updated with fire safety features, including a sprinkler system. The building offers three floors of office space and a full basement with ample storage and all mechanical systems.
