Nestled on 12.39 private acres where mature trees, open lawns and abundant wildlife create an everyday retreat, this remarkable residence has historic character and modern updates aplenty! At 15299 Ballantrae Avenue, the home's origins date to the 1940s, with its final major addition completed in 1984, resulting in an expansive nearly- 5,000-square-foot layout featuring seven bedrooms and five full bathrooms designed to accommodate everything from quiet family living to memorable celebrations. Outside, the property impresses. Various charms and outbuildings include a screened porch, expansive patio, wooden deck, in-ground pool, permanent swing set and beautifully landscaped grounds. Landscaping touches include crepe myrtles, cherry blossom trees, dogwoods, tiger lilies, hostas and hyacinths. Deer, foxes and wild turkeys are frequent visitors, while the acreage also presents multiple opportunities for hunting! Inside the home, craftsmanship immediately takes center stage. Rich hardwood flooring extends throughout nearly the entire home, while portions of the original hand-hewn wood construction showcase materials that are exceptionally difficult to find today. Individually hand-painted ceilings introduce distinctive artistic touches, including intricate seashell, sun relief and ocean wave motifs that make each room memorable. The spacious living room flows into a formal dining room overlooking the rolling backyard, while the main kitchen offers granite countertops, a gas cooktop, a wine cabinet and wine refrigerator. Nearby, a former canning kitchen has been transformed into a charming children's reading room, and the renovated laundry room features a custom built-in storage bench with direct access to the fully encapsulated garage. The main level includes the inviting primary suite with a walk-in closet and private bath, along with additional bedrooms that provide flexibility for guests or home office space. Downstairs, generous living areas include guest accommodations, a utility room with fireplace, abundant storage, bunker and a private apartment complete with its own entrance, living room, bedroom, bathroom and kitchen space (refrigerator, counter space and hot plate), creating excellent potential for multigenerational living, rental income or long- term guests! Extensive recent improvements provide peace of mind, including (all within the last four years!) a new roof, chimney, electrical system, air-conditioning system, water heaters, new gas FP inserts, pool pump and refreshed pool, along with added bedrooms and bathrooms, new hardwood flooring and numerous interior renovations. You have to see them all to believe it! Location-wise, it is within 5 minutes of Harry Nice Bridge, Dahlgren and the Potomac River; 10 minutes of fresh seafood destinations aplenty; and 30 minutes to the heart of Fredericksburg. 15299 Ballantrae Avenue places everyday conveniences alongside a peaceful setting surrounded by nature.
