About this home
Back on the market through no fault of the seller! A second opportunity to make this home yours! A tree-lined driveway welcomes you to this beautifully updated colonial farmhouse on 3.74 acres, creating a charming approach to a turnkey home just minutes from downtown Purcellville and less than a mile from both the elementary and high schools. With inviting living spaces, extensive improvements, and room to enjoy the outdoors, this property is ready for its next owner. Upon entering, a formal living room sits to the left, while an office on the right provides a dedicated space to work from home. The family room connects to the dining area and kitchen, creating a comfortable flow for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen addition, completed in 2023, enhances the home’s gathering spaces, while the mudroom, also remodeled in 2023, adds everyday convenience. Upstairs, four bedrooms and two full bathrooms provide ample space to spread out. Both the primary and guest bathrooms were renovated in 2022, and new upstairs carpeting was installed in 2026. The basement offers additional flexibility with a gym, office space, storage, and direct access to the backyard. The outdoor setting is equally inviting. Apple, peach, and cherry trees, along with grapes and blueberry bushes, complement a large garden with room to grow vegetables, herbs, and seasonal favorites. Enjoy outdoor dining on the patio added in 2023, unwind in the hot tub with its own pad installed in 2022, or relax on the freshly repainted front porch. A playground added in 2025, new fencing and privacy trees in 2026, and a shed added in 2022 round out the property’s outdoor amenities. A standout feature is the detached garage added in 2025, complete with living quarters, a bathroom, and a washer/dryer hookup. Whether envisioned as a separate home office, an au pair suite, businesses in AR1, or space for guests, this versatile area offers numerous possibilities, subject to applicable approvals. Additional improvements include a new roof in 2022, main-floor painting in 2023, remote-controlled blinds in 2024, a water heater in 2025, new windows in 2026, and an updated basement stair opening in 2026. Two-zone HVAC adds comfort, and Dominion’s project to bury the power lines is nearing completion. With beautifully updated interiors, versatile living spaces, and acreage to garden, play, and unwind, this property offers the charm of country living with Purcellville’s schools, shops, and restaurants close by.
