Beautifully Updated Mid-Century Hillside Ranch: Welcome to this beautiful Mid-Century Ranch nestled in Essex's sought-after Pinewood Manor neighborhood. Tastefully renovated throughout, this 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom home blends timeless character with modern updates and offers exceptional living space on an expansive 0.69-acre lot. The main level impresses from the moment you walk in. A recently renovated kitchen features gleaming granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and abundant cabinetry - offering both style and serious functionality for the home chef. Updated hardwood floors flow seamlessly into the generous living and dining area, where exposed wood beam ceilings and a classic brick hearth with cozy woodstove insert set the perfect tone for relaxed evenings. French doors open to a back deck overlooking a lush, private yard framed by towering mature pines. The expansive great room is a showstopper - bathed in natural light, anchored by a dramatic exposed brick accent wall, and opening to an elevated porch. A truly versatile space ready to match your vision. Two spacious bedrooms and a well-appointed full bath complete the upper level. The walkout lower level is where the possibilities really open up. A massive recreation room - virtually staged here as both a home gym and an incredible game room - offers endless potential. A newly finished bonus room serves perfectly as a guest suite, home office, or flex space, complemented by a 3/4 bath and additional storage. Set in a beautiful, established neighborhood with easy access to top-rated schools, shopping, recreation, Burlington, UVM, UVM Medical Center, and Vermont's premier ski mountains - this home truly has it all.
