This charming raised ranch in Apple Mountain Lake has had numerous upgrades since 2023 and is ready for its new owners! Less than a minute to I-66 and situated at the base of the gently sloping terrain that surrounds it. Flanked on all sides by mature trees, with a privacy fence lining the back of the property, this home offers a rural, private setting which perfectly complements its convenient location. As you enter through the front door, you're greeted by an open concept kitchen/living room, bright and inviting with all white cabinets and stainless steel appliances. Down the hall, you'll find two bedrooms and two full bathrooms: the primary bedroom/bathroom suite (attached by a short hallway complete with closet space on both sides), another bedroom, and standalone full bathroom. On the downstairs level, this home features a third bedroom with walk-out door to the side yard, laundry and utility area with rough-in for a third bathroom, and separate unfinished space currently in use as a home gym. Sit down and relax on either side of the house, next to the fire pit or on the deck overlooking the yard (complete with new chain link fence for added security and convenience). Enjoy routine nature sightings on the property, including deer and birds, or take a short drive to the private, members-only lake for swimming, fishing, and enjoying the great outdoors. Also included in the community is a private park, complete with a playground, covered pavilion, basketball court, and tennis court. Offering close proximity to Haymarket (28 miles), Manassas (38 miles), Fairfax (47 miles), Arlington (59 miles), and Washington, D.C. (64 miles), this home is perfect for commuters. Upgrades since 2023 include, but are not limited to: new privacy fence and chain link fence; all new Whirlpool stainless steel appliances; new kitchen countertops; all new carpet; added new/upgraded existing light fixtures including new recessed lights in living room; all new windows and sliding glass door upstairs (including adding two completely new windows, one in each upstairs bedroom, to maximize natural light); new shower, vanity lights; new combination light/fan in both bathrooms; finished third bedroom downstairs.
