About This Home

As of December 2024

Stunning contemporary less than half a mile from Shenandoah National Park’s Skyline Drive (Front Royal Entrance) on a welcoming corner lot in the beautiful Belmont subdivision. Enjoy breathtaking sunsets over the surrounding mountains, four bedrooms, three full (completely updated) baths, plus nearly 3,600 finished square feet. Appreciate the splendid 24x20 vaulted/beamed dining room (w/fireplace, cherry hardwood floors, two doors leading to a lovely balcony), expansive decking (including a hot-tub ready 12x10 deck off primary bedroom w/ pergola), great room w/ vaulted white pine ceiling (and brand new hardwood flooring), ceramic tiled kitchen with adjacent breakfast/sitting room (w/wood burning fireplace and bar with built in wine refrigerator).

LOCATION: Just 3 houses away from the national park and 1.5 miles away from the river, dog park, all levels of schools, downtown FroRo and more.

UPDATES INCLUDE: Freshly painted on all levels, new roof (2 layers of prior roof were removed), extensive drywall and wood repairs, deck repairs, new skylights, significant garage repairs, new flooring in lower level and main level great room, and SO MUCH MORE–it shows like a brand new home now! Updates prior to this owner include: Kitchen enhancements (including granite, a $3,500 Wolf 5 burner gas oven, convection microwave, Bosch dishwasher and more), many replacement windows, a $45k+ investment in lower level primary bedroom/bathroom finishings (to include a 13x9 bathroom completely handicapped accessible w/ multiple shower heads, a wheelchair roll in shower, eye catching built ins in master/rec room w/ adjacent 7x7 walk-in closet) plus brand new flooring installed this summer, 11k heat pump (2022ish), new oversized concrete pad w/ landscaping work at basement entry and more.

FEATURES TO NOTE: Two primary bedrooms w/ attached bathrooms, two inviting entries (front door and side door off circular driveway entering from deck into great room), three fireplaces (in dining room, great room and sitting room), brilliantly designed architectural updates/opening of floorplan, 2 car garage (23x18), welcoming foyer w/ huge coat closet, cherry hardwood floors in bedroom wing hallway, new hardwood flooring in great room, marble floor and tiled tub/showers in main level bathrooms, timeless built in shelving (located in great room, lower primary bedroom/rec room and upper foyer/hall).

PLEASE NOTE: Seller is still in process of making some final updates for new buyers. The bedroom level is located up 2 stairs from the main level, the 4th bedroom is the primary bed/bath combo that the previous owners created in the lower level, but it would also be a fantastic recreation room (walk in closet downstairs could be a home office/nursery), the year built is approximate and per previous owner, a stairlift was removed to lower level but fits from main level to basement fyi. Town of FR provides water service and the home is on a septic system that was completely evaluated and verified by the town of Front Royal (see documents section). Panel box is in the lower primary bathroom behind the mirror. THE COUNTY OF WARREN SIGNED OFF ON CONDITION OF HOME AND PROVIDED CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY--seller needed a C/O that many older homes don't have so she had inspection by Warren County and received one--house is in great condition!
