Set back from the road on 13.4 acres of field, trails, and open sky, this spotless Colonial offers a rare blend of privacy, convenience, and connection to the land. Just minutes from everything Essex Junction has to offer, it feels worlds away. Start your mornings on the covered front porch, spend afternoons wandering your own trails, and end the day on the back deck as deer, birds, and other wildlife make their evening appearances. Inside, the home strikes that perfect balance between welcoming and practical. The living room features custom built-ins and a pellet stove, creating a cozy gathering space. Sunlight pours through the bay window in the dining room, while the expansive kitchen offers abundant cabinet space, bar seating, and new stainless appliances ready for everything from weeknight dinners to holiday celebrations. The mudroom, accessed directly from the 2-car garage, is outfitted with floor-to-ceiling built-ins that keep everyday life organized. Just beyond, the den centers on a brick hearth with a pellet stove insert and opens to the deck through sliding glass doors, where the sweeping landscape becomes part of the living space. Upstairs, 3 bedrooms provide room to spread out, including a primary suite with a walk-in closet and private 3/4 bath. A finished bonus room in the basement offers flexible space for work or hobbies, while the unfinished workshop opens directly to the outdoors, making it ideal for projects and storage. Thoughtful upgrades include a state-of-the-art pellet boiler installed in 2023 and a heat pump water heater added in 2024, helping keep utility costs low. A 24'x36' pole barn provides ample room for equipment, recreational toys, or all the gear that comes with embracing Vermont's outdoor lifestyle. This is the kind of property that changes the pace of your day. A place where a quick walk becomes an evening ritual, where wildlife sightings never get old, and where 13.4 acres become your own private backdrop to everyday life.
