Tucked away in an established Colchester neighborhood, this three-bedroom ranch combines a highly convenient location with peaceful, well-tended outdoor spaces. A quiet, covered front porch offers a relaxing approach to the home, which enjoys great natural light throughout. Inside, the single-level layout features fresh paint across much of the interior. The main living area flows into the kitchen, which is equipped with traditional wainscoting and a practical breakfast bar. Following the oak hardwood floors down the hallway, you'll discover two sizable bedrooms, a full bath, and a bonus room or office. At the other end of the home, the primary bedroom offers abundant space, light, and closet space, while providing it's own full bathroom. Below, a full, unfinished basement houses the home's laundry area, and offers tremendous potential for expansion, workshop use, or storage. Outside, the oversized back deck provides a private space for entertaining, overlooking a spacious, partially-fenced backyard enriched by an abundance of perennial and wildflower gardens. The home benefits from reasonable utility bills and practical updates, including a new septic system installed in 2021. While the setting feels peaceful and established, this home is just a short walk from local parks, nature areas, trails, and beautiful beaches. Minutes from Malletts Bay, downtown Burlington, and the UVM Medical Center, this home delivers a perfect balance of commutability and seclusion. Come see it today! Open House Saturday, 7/18, 10-Noon.
