Some homes are just houses. This one is a legacy.
Custom designed as a faithful replica of Williamsburg Capes — right down to the wallpaper — 6251 Violet was built with intention from the very beginning. Purchasing it from the original owner, four generations of one family have called it home. The care, pride, and love poured into this home across those decades is evident in every detail.
The craftsmanship is evident the moment you walk in. Solid brick construction, rich crown molding, built-in woodwork, and hardwood floors throughout, these details simply aren't found in new construction. This is a home that has been genuinely loved and maintained.
The layout adapts to whatever life brings with four generous bedrooms, two full baths, two separate living areas, a formal dining room, a wood-burning fireplace, granite counters, updated plumbing, and fresh paint. A first-floor bedroom with attached sitting room makes single-level living entirely possible. The finished walk-in attic adds even more versatile space. And the showstopper: nearly 500 square feet of finished living space above the two-car detached garage, an ideal space for a studio, hobbyist, or car enthusiast.
Step outside and exhale. The park-like lot features mature landscaping and a fully fenced rear yard with a playground — a private retreat that feels miles away, even though shops and restaurants are just minutes out.
All this in a subdivision with no HOA, on a street where neighbors know each other by name and the community looks out for each other.
As an added bonus, the major systems are updated: roof-2022, windows-2017, HVAC-2016. Move in with confidence and make this beloved home a part of your story.
6251 Violet is ready for its next chapter. Could it be yours?
