This is the kind of home buyers hope hits the market, and rarely does. Set on nearly 3 acres in one of Haymarket’s most peaceful, tree-lined settings, this property delivers something that’s getting harder to find: true privacy, natural beauty, and space, without sacrificing convenience. Tucked into the sought-after Carolina Chase community and backing to conservation, it feels like a hidden retreat while still being minutes to Route 66, Route 15, Route 29, shopping, and dining. Inside, the home opens with a light-filled two-story foyer and a warm, inviting layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The family room with brick hearth, sun-filled living spaces, and views of mature trees from nearly every window create a setting that just feels different. The kitchen has been updated with modern finishes, and the fully finished basement (2024) adds flexible space for guests, entertaining, or a private retreat, including a theater room setup. Five bedrooms, expansive square footage, and thoughtful layout provide room to grow without compromise. What truly sets this home apart is what buyers can’t always see: the major systems and investments already completed. 3-zone HVAC replaced (2020, 2021, 2024), hot water heater (2023), sewer system upgrade (2023), sump pump (2025), new master bedroom windows (2025), and slate patio (2025). Outside, the fully fenced backyard, mature landscaping, and usable acreage create a setting that feels private, quiet, and complete, the kind of outdoor space buyers are actively searching for but rarely find at this level. Homes like this, combining acreage, setting, updates, and location, don’t come up often in Haymarket. And when they do, they don’t last.
