1007 JULIA'S PLACE, FREDERICKSBURG, VA 22401

This LOVELY, TURN-KEY home in the highly sought-after Preserve at Smith Run is close to town, but safely tucked into a cul-de-sac with nature, wildlife, woods and privacy.  Because this neighborhood is so CENTRALLY LOCATED and has sidewalks, you can easily BIKE OR WALK to your friends, restaurants, the schools, the hospital, Historic Downtown, the University of Mary Washington, CVS, Giant grocery store, or the many shops of Central Park.  This gem of a home offers a spacious living area of about 2,500 SQFT above grade, with an office, dining room, gourmet kitchen and breakfast table area, morning room, living room, back patio, and an EXTRA DEEP FRONT PORCH JUST ADDED in 2023!

Featuring GRANITE MARBLE countertops and a top-of-the-line BOSCH dishwasher, this kitchen is a delight.  The elegant MORNING ROOM is full of light, and the large, OPEN-CONCEPT den ensures you have plenty of room to enjoy the heart of your home by the GAS FIREPLACE.  This home also comes with CUSTOM, hand-sewn window treatments and modern lighting.  Hardwood floors, crown MOULDING and custom wooden slat BLINDS throughout the first floor give you the feeling of craftsmanship and ATTENTION TO DETAIL.  From the morning room, you look onto your backyard, which is lined by a privacy fence and FULLY MATURE ARBORVITAE cypress trees.

An attractive SHED securely holds all your gardening and landscaping tools.  Coming upstairs, you'll notice the custom honeycomb BLINDS.

The Sony High Definition 9' wide projection screen and PROJECTOR, as well as the professional 7.2 SURROUND SOUND and in-wall wiring, high speed internet and additional network outlets make this HOME THEATRE the ideal GAMING or MOVIE ROOM!  A small unfinished storage room comes in handy as well.   Rest assured that all is well with the GUARDIAN HOME SECURITY system (security, smoke, carbon monoxide) and RING CAMERA doorbell.  Fredericksburg Heating and Air has maintained the HVAC system with visits twice a year and the lawn has been lovingly maintained by a Carney-serviced IRRIGATION SYSTEM and Trugreen LAWN SERVICE.  This CHARMING home provides room to breathe and EASY ACCESS to everything!  What's more, the neighborhood is on the SAME ELECTRIC GRID as the hospital campus, so there has never been a power outage-- even in the fiercest storms when other neighborhoods are out.  The garage has loft shelving and an extra refrigerator.  The HOA fee is minimal (just $325/year), but the small community is FRIENDLY, WELCOMING, and plans regular events like cook-outs and other fun activities.   This is a HAPPY HOME in EXCELLENT CONDITION in a WONDERFUL NEIGHBORHOOD in a FANTASTIC LOCATION.  Still Original Owner occupied and lovingly cared for.  Do not miss out on the chance to live in this wonderful place!  Sellers would love an 8-week rent-back, but it's not a requirement.
