Welcome to 6156 Ripley Rd in La Plata—a charming home set on 1.35 acres of flat, usable land offering the perfect blend of comfort, space, and peaceful surroundings. This well-maintained home features 3 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom, with a mix of ceramic tile and wood flooring that adds both character and durability throughout. The kitchen is equipped with an updated refrigerator, stove, and a dishwasher replaced in 2026, along with a clothes washer also replaced in 2026, giving you peace of mind with key updates already taken care of. Enjoy year-round comfort with electric heat and an oil backup system, and added confidence knowing the on-site septic system was recently pumped in May 2025 and is not expected to require service for several years. Step outside to appreciate the expansive yard—partially fenced and ideal for entertaining, pets, or simply relaxing in your own private outdoor space. The property also includes a detached 1-car garage and a storage shed, offering plenty of room for tools, hobbies, or additional storage. If you’ve been looking for a home with land, functionality, and a welcoming feel, this property is a must-see. Property lines have been staked out for buyer's convenience.
