Calling all entrepreneurs, multigenerational buyers, and anyone tired of cookie-cutter homes. Built in 2023, this one-level home offers generous living space plus an oversized 3-car garage with roughly 1,100 additional square feet — a rare setup with real flexibility. Two bedrooms sit on one side, while the opposite wing has its own exterior entrance, ideal for extended family, guests, live/work use, rental income, or a setup that grows with your needs. Need power? You’ve got it here — with TWO 200-amp panels ready to go. Inside, this home is open, airy, and truly beautiful — LVP flooring, tiled baths, stainless steel appliances, and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace that steals the show. The ductless mini-split system offers individualized temperature control in each room — with the added benefit of lower energy costs. Outside, the extras keep coming: paved driveway, hydrant out back for future terraced gardening, and electric conduit beneath the driveway for a future balcony deck overlooking the front yard (visit the property website for some AI-generated inspiration!). The garage is a story all its own — currently set up with a gym, but just as well suited for car enthusiasts, a workshop, studio space, storage, or a home-based business. Tucked in the countryside, yet just a hop, skip, and a jump to I-66, Route 17 and 29, and the shops and restaurants of Warrenton, The Plains, and Marshall, this is the kind of property that opens the door to possibilities. You must see it in person! Schedule a tour today.
