Tucked into a beautiful neighborhood in Mendon, VT, this updated 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom home sits on a flat, open, landscaped 0.50+/- acre lot. A newly repaved asphalt driveway leads to a large 2-car attached garage with a new garage door, additional parking, and a spacious workshop/studio/hobby room. The roof is approximately 4 years old, giving future owners added peace of mind. Adding a bright and welcoming touch to the house is a new interior painting, this home is move in ready!   Inside, the home has been updated with hardwood and porcelain tile floors, a bright spacious kitchen with a new range, and updated bathrooms featuring quartz-top vanities. Storage is abundant, with over 10 closets including a cedar closet and built-in cabinets around the home. A large gathering room with a new Quadra-Fire pellet stove offers a cozy spot to unwind, while the sun deck and shaded patio extend the living space outdoors. Community amenities include a stocked pond for fishing, a dock, a relaxation area with a fire pit and picnic table, and all within a well-maintained neighborhood served by community water. Top that all off with new updated 200-amp electric service with a new panel inside.   The location can't be beat: a short drive to Pico and Killington ski areas, close to area lakes, golf, and hiking & biking trails, and within the Barstow school district. Downtown Rutland and the hospital are just a 5-minute drive away, making this home as convenient as it is peaceful a true four-season Vermont retreat.
