16 Clover Drive, Unit 8DEssex, VT 05452Price: $425,000

Rarely available, beautifully updated, and set in one of the best spots in the community, this sunny end-unit condo offers easy one-level living with all the low-maintenance benefits buyers are hoping for. The owners have done so much here, and it really shows - from the big-ticket comfort upgrades to the little details that make daily life easier. The home and garage have been re-insulated for improved comfort and energy efficiency, the entire interior was professionally painted, and new LVP flooring runs throughout all of the main living spaces for a fresh, clean vibe. Nearly all of the windows have been updated with Pella windows and there are custom blinds throughout. You'll appreciate the spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms (with updated sinks and plumbing), custom closets (!!), a new fridge and dishwasher in the roomy eat-in kitchen, professional landscaping, and, of course - a mini-split for efficient cooling and backup heat! The open living and dining areas are bright and comfortable with natural light pouring through the custom 3-panel sliding glass door leading out to the newly replaced deck. Out back, enjoy a lush HOA-maintained lawn, a peaceful wooded backdrop, and a great deck for lounging or grilling, with an optional screened pergola for extra outdoor living space. The community itself is quiet, welcoming, and pet-friendly. Previously 55+, it is now open to all ages, making this a rare fit for so many different buyer - an easy primary home, a low-stress second home, or simply a beautifully updated place to land without taking on a big list of projects. Peaceful, low-maintenance, and yet so close to everyday conveniences, this one just makes a whole lot of sense!
