About This Home

Tucked away at the end of a quiet street on a beautifully wooded 6.25-acre homesite, this exceptional custom residence offers the rare combination of privacy, convenience, and thoughtfully designed one-level living. Located just minutes from Cosner’s Corner, Spotsylvania Regional Medical Center, and the Virginia Railway Express station, this property delivers peaceful retreat-style living without sacrificing accessibility. Offering over 4,300 square feet across two finished levels plus a loft area, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home is filled with impressive custom details throughout. The soaring 12-foot ceilings in the family room create a dramatic yet inviting gathering space, while the dining area showcases an elegant 10-foot tray ceiling. Rich pecan hardwood flooring, 9-foot ceilings throughout much of the home, a striking wrought iron staircase, and quality craftsmanship elevate every space. The spacious primary suite was designed as a true retreat, featuring direct access to the expansive deck and screened porch overlooking the wooded surroundings. The luxurious primary bath includes Carrera marble flooring, a clawfoot soaking tub, and refined finishes that create a spa-inspired atmosphere. The mostly finished lower level offers incredible flexibility with a large recreation room, bonus room, two additional bedrooms, and abundant space for guests, hobbies, entertaining, or multigenerational living. There is a 5th bedroom in the lower level that is not to code due to no window. Additional highlights include a high-efficiency 3-system 21 SEER HVAC system, water treatment system, oversized outdoor living spaces, and no HOA within this intimate neighborhood setting. Homes offering this level of privacy, custom craftsmanship, acreage, and proximity to major conveniences are increasingly difficult to find. This is a property that must be experienced in person to fully appreciate.
