About this home
The cutest, 2-bedroom, 1 full bath single-family home situated on a beautiful, partially wooded 1.06-acre lot. Enter through the front door and marvel at the vast amount of natural light that invites you into the living room. Hang your jacket in the small coat closet next to the door. You'll notice the gorgeous hardwood floors that run from the living space into a flex space that could be used as a home office. As you enter the kitchen, you'll see a small built-in china cabinet to your right. The kitchen is cute and inviting with captivating black granite countertops and butcher block next to the gas range. There are stainless appliances including the dishwasher, refrigerator, and freezer. Once you whip up your meal, enter the dining space which also has tons of beautiful natural light. This dining space fits a 6' x 3' table perfectly! Move outdoors to the screened 3-season porch to enjoy your morning cup of coffee during the warmer months. Wander down the hall of this ranch-style home to find a full bathroom, roomy primary bedroom, a reach-in closet with washer/dryer, and an adorable guest bedroom. In the basement, you'll find two additional finished spaces and plenty of room for a workshop. Outside is an attached storage shed, an established space for a garden, and a fire pit. Take advantage of close proximity to Five Corners, the Essex Experience, parks, and schools.

There is still time this year to find that perfect home on a spacious lot, less than 25 minutes to Burlington. We introduce to you 195 River Road, a cute and updated home on 1 acre just outside the Village of Essex Junction. This expanded Ranch has 2 bedrooms PLUS a bedroom-sized office or bonus room, 1 full bathroom, laundry on the first floor, and a full partially finished basement. It even has a porch/mudroom since we know no one uses front doors in Vermont. The hardwood floors have been refinished in the past few years and the kitchen and bathroom have been updated tastefully. Of course there is room to put your own touches, but this home is move in ready and gorgeous as is. Full list of improvements available. It has OWNED solar panels facing south that convey with the home, plenty of parking, and a back deck for entertaining and looking out over your massive yard and gardens. Plenty of open lawn for play in addition to the whimsical mix of gardens and trees. It could be a gardeners delight, or cleared out for even more open lawn space. At the back of the property is a fire pit for outdoor evening gatherings, with trails beyond the property as well. Located near Sand Hill Road, it's a great location between the Essex Five Corners and Jericho/Richmond so you can grab some coffee on your way to work (if you even need to leave your home) or skip the traffic and hop on I-89 via Exit 11. Bus line also stops right out front! Delayed showings begin Saturday 10/17/20.

This charming home is centrally located between Essex Jct and Richmond, situated on 1 acre of flat land. The beautiful mature perennial gardens and abundant wildlife are wonderful natural entertainment. This is a great starter home with the structural ability to expand up or out. It could also be the sweet smaller home you've wanted to down-size into with an easy yard to maintain. Sunshine floods every room. The dining room has three walls of windows. It has an entertaining view to the back yard of the visiting wildlife. It's energy efficient and convenient to I-89. The oil usage is only 302 gallons annually and electric average is $120 monthly. There's a full basement that's partially finished. The roof is 5 years old. The vinyl and wood windows were replaced mid 1990's as well as the siding. The hot water heater was replaced in Oct. 2015. There are solid wood floors that can be refinished and beautiful crown molding in the living room and kitchen area. A little gem.
