Set on a private, landscaped lot of nearly 3/4 of an acre with a peaceful backyard setting, this well-maintained 3-bedroom ranch offers a bright, functional layout and numerous thoughtful updates throughout. Expansive rear-facing windows fill the home with natural light and overlook the backyard, creating an open and inviting feel. The kitchen includes a custom half-moon banquette, new tile flooring (2023), and direct access to the rear deck and bluestone patio, creating an easy connection to the outdoor living spaces. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dedicated dining room, currently used as a second sitting area, offers flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles. Hardwood floors extend through the living room, where a wood-burning fireplace with insert serves as the focal point. Two bedrooms are located at the front of the home, including one with a recently remodeled ensuite half bath. Privately situated at the rear, the spacious primary suite enjoys backyard views and direct access to its own deck. The full bath was renovated in 2023, and a dedicated laundry room completes the main level. Outside, mature landscaping, a firepit, strawberry and established raspberry bushes create an inviting outdoor setting with plenty of space to relax or entertain. Significant improvements include leased Tesla solar panels that substantially reduce energy costs, a 10-year-old shingle roof with a standing seam snow belt, chimney repointing, added insulation, many replacement windows and doors, hardwood flooring, updated lighting and more. Conveniently located close to schools, shopping, parks, downtown Burlington, UVM Medical Center and I-89, this meticulously maintained home combines quality updates, energy efficiency and an ideal South Burlington location.
