About This Home

As of October 2025

This immaculate 4-bedroom, 3-bath Cape Cod in sought-after Meadow Branch is move-in ready and full of thoughtful updates! From the welcoming foyer, the home flows seamlessly into a bright living room, spacious kitchen, and dedicated dining room. On the main level you'll also find two bedrooms and a full bath, perfect for guests or convenient one-level living. From the kitchen, step outside to the Trex-like deck overlooking a beautifully flat backyard, enter the attached garage, or take the back stairs up to the stunning finished family room featuring vaulted ceilings, a wood burning fireplace with electric insert, and a mini-split A/C for year-round comfort. Take the front staircase to the upper level where you’ll find two additional bedrooms and baths. The primary suite offers incredible storage with semi-finished dormers, plus an ensuite bath and extra hall closet. A second bedroom—currently used as an office—also surprises with more storage than expected, while a large hall bath completes the level. The exterior is just as inviting, with a charming front porch, expansive Trex-like deck, and that picture-perfect backyard. Recent updates include a new 30-year architectural roof (2024), a 4-ton heat pump and air handler (2023), and additional improvements such as gutters, garage door opener, and water heater expansion tank—all within the last three years. Enjoy the unbeatable location—walk to Handley High School, Abrams Creek Wetlands Preserve, or the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley trails. With main-level bedrooms, meticulous maintenance, and an amazing neighborhood, this home is a true gem. Don’t miss it—schedule your tour today!
