The current owners of 144 Clark Patton Road have been told time and time again: If I owned this home, I would never have to leave for vacation. Now, this incredibly dynamic yet private estate is set to wow its next owner(s). This 3,800+ square foot home includes three bedrooms and three baths on two levels (including its finished basement). Built in 1987 by a contractor for his own residence, the carefully crafted home has experienced a string of incredible upgrades during the last decade. Chronologically, these upgrades include a resurfaced driveway (2010), remodeled master bath (2012), updated guest bath (2013), remodel and upgrade of its kitchen, dining room and laundry room (2016), installation of a new stone patio and gutter guards (2016), and new A/C system and handler (2019). Additional enhancements have been made to its roof (15 years old) and windows (just 12 years old). Before zooming in on the principal residence as it sits today, lets explore its beautifully wooded and dynamic grounds. In total, there are 10-plus acres to explore! How about the pool house for starters? Bright and airy, it has several sets of French doors, a kitchen area, full bath and its own AC set-up. And what pool house would be complete without an adjacent pool! The pools filter and pump were replaced just last year and theres a sturdy cover for the pool if and whenever needed. The pool is 8 feet deep and is sure to provide many months of enjoyment each pool season! From the home, youll find what the current owners call the Red Riding Hood Path cleared walking path that goes through the woods to a beautiful clearing. The grounds also include a shed and a paved driveway leads through the property. Walking through the front door of the brick-clad home with blue shutters, enthralling spaces await. Main level highlights include a dining room with tasteful wainscoting; living room with brick fireplace and wood stove insert as well as a French door exit to back paver patio and... one of the prettiest kitchens you will ever experience. The current owners spent more than $60,000 upgrading the kitchen and it spans the entire width of the home! Among the kitchens highlights are handcrafted wood cabinetry painted in a stunning ivory color (all cabinetry is soft-close and notice the under-cabinet lighting!); galaxy black granite countertops; white tile backsplash, a center island with pull-out cabinetry; built-in beverage cooler; and top-of the line stainless-steel appliances (including a double oven)! You simply have to see it to believe it, folks. ll three bedrooms are carpeted including the massive primary suite, which has two windows, two closets (one thats a walk-in!) and ensuite bath complete with two granite-countered sinks, new cabinetry and dazzling ceramic tile flooring. Outside the primary suite, the additional full bath has a walk-in shower, beautiful ceramic tile floors and vanity with new cabinetry, granite counters and a framed mirror. In the basement, soak in the brand-new carpet! Anchoring the space is a huge recreation room; wood stove with lovely wooden mantle; two rooms (one currently used as a library/sitting area and one as a guest bedroom); and a full bath with corner shower, large step-up garden tub, pedestal sink and ceramic tile walls. The wood stove keeps the basement perfect through the winter and, during the summer, its owners note it is incredibly and naturally pleasant! The home is less than 20 minutes from Downtown Fredericksburg. Interstate 95 access (via U.S. Route 17) is just five miles from its doorstep and two VRE stations are within 20 minutes (Leeland Road and Downtown Fredericksburg). Numerous grocery, dining and shopping options are within 10 minutes of the home just southeast and along U.S. Route 17. Boasting a park-like setting for incredible year-round living, 144 Clark Patton Road may very well have it all.
