About this home

Tucked into the back of the coveted Laurel Hill neighborhood, this three bedroom raised ranch offers a rare kind of quiet reprieve while being convenient to all South Burlington and Burlington offer. It's a quiet that carries over to your utility bills too, thanks to a solar array that makes more electricity than the home uses. The kitchen is thoughtfully laid out with ample counter and cabinet space plus a pantry you’ll surely appreciate. The adjacent dining room features a sliding glass door leading to the deck, an easy spot for morning coffee or evening meals overlooking a peaceful backyard. The living room stretches wide and bright, anchored by a fireplace, and is lit by a big bay window that fills the space with natural light. Hardwood floors run throughout the main level, tying it all together. All three bedrooms are conveniently located on the main floor. The primary bedroom is generously sized with its own three-quarter bath and a second full bath serves the rest of the home. Downstairs, the lower level flexes to fit your life: a home office, a second living area, or simply more room to spread out. A second fireplace keeps things cozy and there's a laundry area and half bath for convenience. Storage abounds throughout and the two-car garage opens directly into the lower level. A standout feature: solar panels that generate more power than the home uses. Combined with an all-electric setup, this is a home built for low to zero utility costs, ideal for anyone drawn to sustainable living. Edible landscaping surrounds the property, adding beauty and function alike. And then there's the setting. The backyard borders the UVM Horticulture Farm which boasts 97 protected acres home to significant plant collections. Those conserved acres create a buffer of calm that's hard to find this close to everything. Walk just a few feet through the neighborhood to be connected directly to Szymanski Park and the full network of South Burlington's walking and bike paths.
