Welcome home to Ferry Farms where charm, community, and convenience come together. This beautifully cared-for brick rambler offers effortless single-level living and the kind of warmth you feel the moment you pull into the driveway. From the inviting curb appeal to the thoughtfully updated interior, this home reflects true pride of ownership. Hardwood floors run through most of the home, creating a seamless and timeless feel. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring granite countertops, beautiful backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, and stainless steel appliances which is perfect for everyday living and gathering with friends and family. The spacious dining room invites holiday dinners and memory-making moments. Just beyond, the newly added 20x30 screened-in porch (June 2025) is a true retreat—filled with natural light, it’s the perfect place for morning coffee, quiet evenings, or weekend entertaining. A composite deck and fully fenced backyard offer even more space to relax, play, or garden. The primary suite is a peaceful escape, highlighted by a completely renovated shower (March 2025) with beautiful tile, glass enclosure, and a dual rain shower head system. Dual sinks with granite countertops add both style and function. The hall bath has been tastefully remodeled with granite and wainscotting accents, giving it a fresh, coastal-inspired feel. The entire home was painted within the last two years, creating a clean, move-in-ready canvas. Major improvements provide confidence and comfort, including a 50-year roof, two newer HVAC systems, two hot water heaters, newer plumbing, commercial-grade 6-inch gutters (2025), and partially encapsulated crawlspace. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, or anyone needing extra space will appreciate the impressive 26x30 detached garage (built 2016) with gutter guards, insulated doors, wood stove, workbenches, pull-down attic with full steps, and a half bath. A 12x16 powered shed with extended lean-to and a newer carport add even more flexibility. Enjoy the benefits of an established neighborhood setting, including access to a community swimming pool and an elementary school nearby, making daily routines and summer afternoons both convenient and enjoyable. All of this with no HOA and just minutes to Downtown Fredericksburg, the VRE, I-95, shopping, dining, Quantico, and Washington, DC. This home is move-in ready with quality updates already completed. This is more than a house. it’s a place to settle in, spread out, and truly feel at home.
