Well-located and thoughtfully refreshed, this nearly 2,800 sq ft home in the established Four Seasons community offers a flexible layout and comfortable living across two levels. The main floor includes a primary suite, dedicated home office, and laundry, while upstairs you’ll find three generously sized, light-filled bedrooms, an updated full bath, and a large bonus room that adapts easily to guests, work, or recreation. The kitchen and baths anchor the home with timeless finishes, including cherry cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, tile flooring, solid-surface counters, and a well-appointed primary bath with a tiled walk-in shower and heavy glass enclosure. Hardwood floors run throughout the home, paired with a ventless gas fireplace (serviced in 2022) and bright, open living spaces that feel welcoming and easy to live in. Notable improvements include a new roof and water heater (2021), HVAC blower motor replacement and air handler service (2024), added attic insulation (2023), select exterior siding replacement and repainting (2023), gutters added (2022), updated kitchen plumbing and wall insulation (2022), full interior repaint excluding laundry (2025), new primary bedroom flooring (2025), and recent yard refresh with mulch and cleanup (2025). Outside, the fully fenced yard creates a calm, garden-style setting that comes alive in spring and summer, with terraced planting space in the rear and a pet-friendly front gate. A covered deck, two-car garage, and HOA services for trash, snow removal, and common areas add everyday ease. Located just minutes from UVA, Stonefield, Hollymead, Rio Road, and Route 29, this home offers space, updates, and location—ready for its next owner and open to thoughtful offers.
