Opportunity awaits at 15 Oakwood Road in Essex! This raised ranch is set back from the road on a private 0.69 acre lot in a nice, established neighborhood. With 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, and roughly 1,800 finished square feet, there's plenty of space to work with. Three bedrooms are located upstairs, with a fourth bedroom in the partially finished basement. The home needs significant renovation but offers tremendous potential for buyers ready to bring their vision to life. Whether you're a contractor, an investor, or looking to build equity and create a home tailored to your own style, this property is a canvas worth considering. Wood floors run through the majority of the home, adding warmth and character that can really shine with some care. Heat is provided by a Weil McLain gas boiler, and a heated 1-car garage adds year round convenience and storage. The spacious, private lot offers plenty of room to garden, relax, and enjoy the outdoors. Essex is one of Chittenden County's most sought after communities, offering a convenient suburban setting just a short drive from Burlington, the University of Vermont, and the shores of Lake Champlain. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate nearby Indian Brook Reservoir for hiking, paddling, and swimming, along with local trails and parks. Shopping, dining, and entertainment are close at hand at the Essex Experience, and easy access to Route 15 and I 89 makes commuting simple. For year round adventure, the slopes and mountain trails of Bolton Valley, Smugglers' Notch, and Stowe are all within about an hour's drive. Don't miss the chance to make this property your own in a location that truly has it all!
