About This Home
As of March 2023First time offering! This waterfront home has it all! Built in 2019, used as a second home and the owners only spent the night here about 30 times total since it was built! When you walk in you will think the builder just got done! The gorgeous kitchen with granite bar looks stunning, the stainless appliances are top of the line, drawers are slow closing and the cabinets are beautiful! In the living room there is a cozy gas fireplace with engineered hardwood flooring! There are 3 bedrooms, 2 full sized bathrooms and a separate dining room with a bay window. The laundry room has a high-end washer and dryer and is attached to the oversized garage! The crawl space is conditioned! This home fronts to Placid Lake!

This area offers lots of historical sites nearby such as George Washingtons Birthplace with beach frontage, picnic areas and a museum. Also, there is James Monroe's Birthplace only minutes away. Stratford Hall Plantation which was the home of the Lees. (Robert E. Lees's family) offers a lot of activities and tourist attractions.
