It sits on a nearly five-acre, no-HOA lot in Stafford County. Let’s zoom in on this picturesque acreage, shall we? The home itself is tucked nearly 400 feet off the road, with a long, gravel driveway segueing to the homesite. The front yard is vast, green and larger than a football field! For parking, there is a side-loading, two-car garage. From the home’s front porch, the owners’ have loved the vivid pink and orange sunsets daily – wow! The back yard is fenced in with a wooden back deck that extends the full length of the house. Should your heart desire, there is plenty of space for a pool. Within the back yard woods, there is a shooting range and plenty of opportunities to go metal detecting for Civil War-era relics. And let’s not forget there is a beautifully kept orchard on-site that bears apples, pears, peaches, nectarines and more! The home itself is a sage green with brown shutters, a dark brown front door and an ornate metal roof. Inside, contemporary bliss awaits with open spaces, oak floors and intricate touches!
