Farmhouse/National Folk, Split Foyer, Split Level, Colonial

Two residences... on nearly five total acres... with an expansive barn and separately open and fenced spaces ready for all of your farmette dreams? 41 Richards Ferry Road in Stafford County wows on absolutely every level! The estate here dates back to 1939 and has been under its current owners’ care (with updates aplenty!) since 2016. Between the two homes, there are six total bedrooms, four baths and 4,000 square feet of living space to relish. The acreage here spans 4.75 acres and there are no HOA fees. Zooming in on the front yard, it’s one of many fenced-areas! The land is nestled on the corner of a private road, with a gravel driveway culminating in an L-shape. Before we zoom in on the two residences, let’s talk about all that comprises this dynamic acreage! Highlights include a two-story barn (as big as a house!) equipped with three stalls, a tack room, electricity, a water pump and hay loft and shoot. Next to it are multiple fenced-in areas and a charming goat shed. For animals, this is heaven! Beyond it is a path for hiking/riding as well as an area primed for a shooting range. Note the fruit trees and bushes throughout – apple, peaches, pears, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and figs all grow here! Let’s check out the secondary residence here first – it was totally redone and updated in 2017 (and we mean totally, including insulation, plumbing, flooring and more)! It includes three bedrooms, an office and two full baths across its two total levels. For parking, there is a one-car garage. For soaking in the farm landscapes, this residence has a wonderful front porch with a swing. Through the front door of the secondary residence, it’s open bliss with a dining room and kitchen. The kitchen includes butcher block counters, black appliances and a big farmhouse sink. Off the kitchen is a window-draped family/living room. The entire downstairs is so light and airy! Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, a full bath and the office. The primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and the bathroom has two sinks, a tub/shower combo and a laundry set-up in the bathroom. For storage, there is attic access upstairs. Now, let’s head to the main residence, shall we? Its roof was updated in 2019 and all three exterior doors and select window components were recently replaced. The home follows a split-level floor plan with three total bedrooms and two baths. Heading inside, you’re greeted with hardwood flooring and arched entries. Main level highlights include the dining room, a piano room and the kitchen which includes a dining nook, walk-in pantry, granite countertops, solid-wood cabinetry and a double sink. The ceiling in the kitchen soars! We have a main level primary suite too, including a big bay window, giant closet and updated ensuite bath. Upstairs and within the primary residence are two bedrooms and a full bath (walk-in shower). Both of these bedrooms include updated flooring, three windows and two closets. The primary residence also has a basement with a recreation space with a large wood stove; an office; laundry room; crawl space; and exit to the outdoor space. Systems-wise, the HVAC was updated in 2022. Note the paver patio here with a wonderful goldfisth pond and then access to the 7-person hot tub (both residences have seamless access to the hot tub!). Beyond this incredible acreage, multiple grocery, shopping and dining selections are accessible along Route 17 within 10 minutes. For recreation, Curtis Park and the Gauntlet Golf Club are 5 minutes north. I-95 access is less than 15 minutes southeast (Route 17 exit) and the heart of Downtown Fredericksburg is within 20 minutes. 41 Richards Ferry Road is a wonderful home with so many options and opportunities!
