About this home

Set on 1.29 private, wooded acres with no HOA, this beautifully updated Williamsburg-inspired home offers timeless character, generous living spaces, and a peaceful setting. Extensive improvements include fresh interior and exterior paint, refinished hardwood floors on the main level, new carpet, new stainless steel appliances, updated plumbing and electrical fixtures, new receptacles and switches, new cabinet and door hardware, a newly constructed deck, new porch screens, and new LVP flooring in the screened porch.

The kitchen features granite countertops, a center island with storage, a separate prep sink, tile backsplash, and a sun-filled breakfast nook. It opens to the inviting family room with a gas fireplace, chair rail, and wainscoting. Formal living and dining rooms provide additional space for entertaining, while crown molding throughout the home adds classic architectural detail.

The main-level laundry room offers built-in storage, a utility sink, and a convenient drop zone. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes built-in bookcases, a desk and storage area, dual closets with wood shelving, and a private bath with skylights, a dual vanity, soaking tub, and tiled walk-in shower.

Two additional bedrooms include an oversized secondary bedroom with a walk-in closet and direct access to the updated hall bath. Enjoy the wooded surroundings from the screened porch with a beadboard ceiling and new flooring, or gather outdoors on the new deck. Conveniently located near shopping, dining, and major commuter routes, this move-in-ready home delivers space, privacy, and thoughtful updates in one exceptional property.
