Welcome to this charming and well-maintained ranch in the heart of Colchester—one of Vermont’s most desirable lakeside towns. The updated kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a stylish tile backsplash, with a slider leading to a sunny back deck—ideal for grilling and relaxing. Hardwood and tile floors run throughout the main level, with large windows bringing in abundant natural light. Bedrooms offer hardwood flooring and ample closet space. A three-season sunroom/mudroom off the kitchen provides additional space to unwind. The partially finished basement includes a full bath, great for a home office or media room, plus unfinished space for storage. An oversized garage offers extra room for a workshop or gear. Mature trees create a peaceful backyard setting; and you're within walking distance to the beach. Located directly across from the scenic Island Line Rail Trail, you can hop on your bike and head north to the Colchester Causeway for stunning views of Lake Champlain, or south to the Rossetti Natural Area for beach days, kayaking, and birdwatching. You're also just minutes from Bayside Park, Airport Park, Colchester Rec Center, schools, local marinas, restaurants, and only a short drive to downtown Burlington, UVM, and the medical center. Whether you're looking for a home base to enjoy the outdoors or simply settle into a friendly community near the lake, this Colchester gem has it all.
