About this home
Welcome to this original 3-bedroom, 1-bath Colchester Cape set on a beautiful . 80 acre lot with plenty of privacy. Inside, you will find a warm and inviting living space accented by natural woodwork. The open kitchen and dining area creates an easy, comfortable flow, perfect for everyday life and gathering. The living room offers a large front window (new in 2024) with wonderful natural light showcasing the original hardwood floors and the fireplace adds to the cozy ambiance. Just beyond the living space, find three comfortable bedrooms, and a full bathroom complete with vanity, tub/shower combo, and a huge storage closet. Upstairs, a fully finished room provides a flexible bonus space, ideal for a home office, playroom, or a quiet retreat tucked away from it all. You will notice that there is a space for an additional bathroom upstairs with plumbing in place. Also, you will find a large unfinished storage area where your imagination could go wild! Step outside and the story continues. A spacious back deck overlooks the yard and in-ground pool, setting the scene for long summer days, weekend barbecues, and evenings spent under the stars. Additional highlights include a full-height, dry, unfinished basement with loads of potential and a 2 plus-car garage (with storage above). Enter the garage from the side door or use the door providing access to the back yard. The possibilities are endless and the location is wonderful with access to nearby parks, bike trails and the lake. Thoughtful updates include siding (2017 garage, 2023 house), hot water tank (2023), fresh pavement (2024), and gutters (2021) all bringing comfort and peace of mind. With a great location, flexible floor plan, and a warm feeling throughout, this is a home where memories are made. Lovingly cared for by the same family, this home is ready to begin its next chapter.

Malletts Bay, located between Colchester Point and the Winooski River delta, is a lakeside and residential Burlington neighborhood with a working-marina shoreline and pocket beaches. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Malletts Bay Boat Club and the adjacent causeway path, where sail masts, launch ramps, and shoreline walkers set the tempo. Low-slung lake cottages mix with newer townhomes on curving roads that follow the bay’s coves. Bayside Park frames daily routines with a boat launch, picnic lawns, and long lake views. The vibe stays outdoorsy, with paddlesports and sunset watching shaping the calendar. Nearby, the Winooski Causeway adds a long, linear promenade across open water.
