(OFFER DEADLINE Sunday 3/1 , please contact the listing agent for more information.) If you’ve ever slowed down while driving and thought, “I wonder what it’s like to live there…” - this is that house. A classic white Cape Cod framed by a large shade tree and stone columns, a straight stone path guiding you to a red front door that feels like it belongs in a story. It’s tucked on a quiet street with no through-traffic, yet just minutes from Old Town Warrenton. Inside, the home is beautifully maintained and exceptionally well cared for. Gorgeous hardwood floors run throughout, with the upstairs bedroom floors refinished this year. Fresh interior paint brightens every room. The kitchen has been updated, and major improvements include a roof (2018), HVAC (2020), replacement windows, and full exterior paint in 2023. The backyard is unexpectedly large—fully fenced, private, and peaceful. There’s off-street parking, a cozy side porch, a walk-out basement, and even space to add a garage or ADU if desired (buyer to do due diligence). It’s the kind of home that feels settled, grounded, and quietly special. Close to restaurants, shops, and easy access to Routes 29, 17, and 211- but just far enough off the path to feel like your own retreat. Now active and available for showings. If this one has caught your eye, don’t wait.
