What's special

Gas fireplaceInviting sitting roomBeautiful foyerFinished lower levelGenerous primary suiteSpacious private bathAmple closet space

Some homes simply give you more room to live and this is one of them. A beautiful foyer sets the tone for this expansive four-bedroom home, tucked into a quiet, established corner of the sought-after Lang Farm neighborhood with no through traffic. Inside, the layout offers a refreshing balance of connection and separation: the eat-in kitchen opens comfortably to the living room, where a gas fireplace creates a warm natural gathering place, while the formal dining room and inviting sitting room provide dedicated spaces of their own. Beautiful built-ins appear throughout the home, adding character, useful storage, and a level of craftsmanship rarely found in newer construction. Upstairs, the generous primary suite offers ample closet space and a spacious private bath. The substantial bonus room above the garage creates an entirely separate area for work, recreation, guests, or hobbies, while the finished lower level adds even more flexibility. Though officially a four-bedroom home, its size and adaptable layout allow it to live well beyond that designation. The location brings together the best of neighborhood living and everyday convenience. The Links at Lang Farm, The Essex Resort & Spa, and The Essex Experience with its locally owned restaurants, shopping, cinema, art, and entertainment are all close by. Miles of Essex trails and year-round recreation are within easy reach, while Bolton Valley, Smugglers’ Notch, and Stowe make mountain days an easy part of the Vermont lifestyle. Well maintained and ready for its next chapter, this is a home with the space, character, and versatility to be enjoyed immediately and the opportunity to make it distinctly your own over time.
