Property Description
STAFFORD | FARMETTE ON 3+ ACRES WITH POND - Horses, chickens, gardens, workshops, a wood-fired Finnish sauna-and room to spread out. Set on more than three private acres backing to a pond, this updated, move-in ready farmette offers a rare country lifestyle with usable land, multiple outbuildings, and no HOA, all just minutes from everyday conveniences and I-95. Built in 1933, this 3 bed + den, 2.5 bath Cape Cod blends original character with thoughtful renovations and updates throughout. Original pine floors, oversized windows, and abundant natural light create a warm, welcoming feel. A covered front porch opens to a spacious entry with formal living and dining rooms. The renovated kitchen features marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, a center island, custom glass tile backsplash, and French doors leading to the expansive rear deck. The expansive rear deck is where the property truly reveals itself, overlooking the acreage and offering an ideal vantage point for enjoying the privacy and peaceful setting.Experience the property at it's fullest from this vantage point -- enjoy morning coffee, outdoor meals, entertaining, or simply settling in and enjoying the peaceful surroundings, the acreage, and the privacy. The main level also includes a spacious family room with an electric fireplace, an office with built-ins, and a full bath, offering plenty of flexibility for guests or working from home. The upper level offers three bedrooms, including a generous primary bedroom with a private dressing area and sink, and an updated full bath. The finished walk-out lower level provides even more usable space with a large recreation room, bonus room, half bath, laundry/utility room, and excellent storage. Outside, the property truly shines. Relax in the wood-fired Finnish sauna. Tend to horses in the barn. Gather fresh eggs from the chicken coop. Work on projects in the garage and workshop, or simply enjoy the open land and privacy. With Al zoning, the property offers endless possibilities for hobby farming, recreation, gardening, animals, or even income producing opportunities. With no HOA and room to spread out, this is more than a home - it's a lifestyle that's increasingly hard to find in Northern Stafford. Located in the sought-after Mountain View High School pyramid, the home offers the space and privacy of country living without giving up everyday convenience. Shopping, dining, Stafford, Fredericksburg, Mary Washington University, and Quantico Marine Corps Base are all within easy reach, along with commuter lots, Route 1, HOV lanes, and I-95. It's a peaceful, tucked-away setting that still keeps daily life and commuting surprisingly convenient. For buyers looking for something beyond the ordinary, this property brings together character, history, usable land, and thoughtful updates in a way that's increasingly hard to find. Whether the vision includes animals, gardens, projects, gatherings, or simply more room to live, this is a home with a story, a setting, and a personality all its own. Note: Property includes a Dominion Energy easement. Dominion is evaluating proposed improvements that may affect easement. See Dominion Energy's North Anna-Bristers project website for additional info.
