Whether you are looking for the perfect starter home or the convenient quaint residence of your dreams, 203 Bend Farm Road is it, folks! Originally constructed in 1950 but showing quite modern here in 2023, this bungalow/ cottage-style residence includes two bedrooms, one bath and 672 square feet of living space. The home is in the no-HOA Sylvania Heights neighborhood. With this location, talk about a seamless lifestyle! The Shops at River Club, Fredericksburg Country Club, Fredericksburg Field House, and Dixon Park are all within a five-minute drive. For commuters, Downtown Fredericksburg, the Spotsylvania VRE station, and I-95 (Route 3 and Massaponax exits) are within 10 minutes. Zooming in on the home site, a gravel driveway (with room for two cars) leads to the front of the residence. An expansive front porch drapes its façade, primed for tranquil mornings and evening lounging, otherwise it’s a green, low-maintenance space. Out back, there are two trees for shade and a wooden deck. The deck is approximately four years old. The back yard is a great size for all of your pleasant weather adventures and entertaining! The home itself is a light gray with white window surrounds. The roof is approximately seven years old. Inside, hardwood resemblant laminate flooring abounds, and you’re greeted with the spacious living room that is beaming with natural light. If you walk straight ahead, there is a laundry closet with shelving (machinery conveys!) and the open kitchen. The kitchen has stone-like tile flooring, white appliances, medium brown cabinetry, and gray counters. Off the kitchen is an exit to that wonderful back porch. As for bedrooms – if you are walking in from the front door – they are on the left side of the home. Each are the same size, so take your pick for a primary bedroom, home office or. .. you name it! For bonus storage space, the bedroom in the back of the home has attic access. The full bath may be found down a hallway between the bedrooms. The bath has that lovely stone-like tile flooring, a tub/shower combo with tile surround and a larger single vanity sink. The owner here will miss the residence’s unique charm, open floor plan and tons of natural light. What will capture your fancy at 203 Bend Farm Road?
