Discover refined living and exceptional outdoor enjoyment on over three private acres in the sought-after Poplar Estates community of Stafford. This beautifully maintained Colonial offers a thoughtful layout with generous living spaces, a rare main-level bedroom, and an inviting backyard retreat centered around an in-ground pool-perfect for everyday living and effortless entertaining. Step inside to a welcoming two-story foyer with hardwood floors that opens to bright living and dining spaces designed for both gatherings and quiet moments at home. The heart of the home is the spacious kitchen featuring granite countertops, an island with prep and seating space, stainless steel appliances, double wall ovens, gas cooking, and a double-door pantry. A sunny breakfast area offers the perfect place for casual meals, while the adjacent family room creates a warm gathering space anchored by a gas fireplace. The main level also includes a convenient bedroom and full bath-ideal for guests, multi-generational living, or a private home office-as well as a sunroom filled with natural light overlooking the backyard. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite provides a peaceful retreat with abundant natural light and a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub, tiled shower with frameless glass, and dual vanities. Three additional bedrooms offer comfortable accommodations, including a Jack-and-Jill bath connecting two bedrooms, while an open upper landing overlooks the family room below and adds to the home's airy feel. The finished lower level expands the living space with a large recreation room, media room, additional full bath, and flexible areas for overnight guests, hobbies, workouts, or entertaining. Outdoors, the backyard becomes a true highlight of the property. The in-ground pool and stamped concrete patio create a private setting for summer gatherings, relaxing weekends, and memorable celebrations. The fenced yard offers plenty of room for play, pets, and outdoor enjoyment, while a storage shed provides additional space for tools and equipment. Set on more than three acres in a peaceful setting yet conveniently located near shopping, dining, commuter routes, and local amenities, this property delivers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and lifestyle.
