What a rare find in South Burlington! An expansive home set way back off Spear Street on a 3.54 acre tree-lined lot - a delightful oasis of calm and greenery, yet so close to UVM & hospital, downtown Burlington, shops & schools. Truly a tranquil, bucolic, park-like setting that's seldom seen these days. From its beginnings as a 1950s ranch, it has been expanded over the years and now includes a large owner's suite with cathedral ceiling, full bath, and walk-in cedar closets, plus 3 additional bedrooms and two baths. A rustic stone fireplace is the focal point of the living room, while a raised brick hearth with woodstove warms the family room. There's even a sunroom connected to the dining room for plenty of sunshine and space for potted plants. The 2-car garage plus a utility bay under the house, along with a second interior garage - great for a shop & projects - and there's also an older detached garage. With a variety in the ages of construction, some areas of the home are ready for a facelift to match the beautiful surroundings on this large parcel of land.
