About 278 Richland Rd
Property Status: Active This wonderfully maintained basement apartment is nestled in quiet neighborhood conveniently located off of Route 17 by way of Hartwood Road. You'll love coming home and beautiful morning drives in this amazing area. There are all the must have conveniences (Restaurants, Lowe's, Walmart, Wawa, Target, Banking, Royal Farms, UPS, Dry cleaning, etc.) yet it's still just far enough from the main roads for a wonderful and relaxing country feel. Additionally, this gem is also close to I-95, a VDOT Commuter Lot (take advantage of the brand new dedicated HOV/HOT lanes), Route 1, Marine Base Quantico, Old Town Fredericksburg, etc. This beautiful basement apartment has a brand new washer & dryer, microwave, toaster oven, induction cooktop, and stylish breakfast bar area. Also, the porch entrance area has more than enough space to grill and enjoy the amazing Virginia fall days to come, and there are maintained trails to walk with even more to come this summer. A perfect place for a busy professional to get away from the hustle and bustle, or for a young family to have a safe, clean, and reasonably priced place to call home for now. A rare combination of convenience meets proximity, along with scenic views, sounds of nature, and privacy. We know you're going to absolutely love all that this comfy and quaint space has to offer.
