VIRGINIA BEACH — Take a drive “down country” on Princess Anne Road, away from the hustle-and- bustle of city life, and you’ll find a house with plenty to offer.
Surrounded by the peaceful beauty of tall green trees and short grass and situated on three acres, it’s a prime example of rural living.
“This home is country living at its best,” said Rachael Turner, realtor with Howard Hanna. “Plus, if you love the water, it’s just around the corner from Munden Point Park and the Intracoastal Waterway. The city park [nearby] offers picnic areas on the water and a boat ramp.”
The big yard offers plenty of opportunities for the entire family to get outdoors and to commune with nature, as well as the potential for a variety of outdoor activities.
Those who have a green thumb will find abundant room for gardening and growing vegetables. There’s also plenty of space for adding more trees and more plants or flowers to the landscaping.
The home sits well back from the road, giving children ample room to run and play without danger from passing cars. There are trees for climbing, flat spaces for kick-ball games, and lots of places to hide when a competitive game of hide-and- seek is underway.
If a quiet, relaxing evening under the moon and stars is needed, there’s a fire pit just waiting for family and friends to pull up a lawn chair, kick back, and take in the spectacular night sky and the sounds of nature.
When the bugs are biting or the rain is falling, the home offers a completely screened-in porch and the party can easily be taken inside.
Once inside, there are about 3,900 square feet of modern and up-to- date living space on two floors, including five bedrooms and three baths. Natural light from the numerous windows combines with vaulted ceilings to make the entire home feel even more spacious and open, while wood plank laminate flooring adds a rich feel to a number of rooms.
A formal dining room has bay windows, while a large, open, and well-appointed eat-in kitchen offers plenty of counter space for preparing meals. There is a spacious great room and lots of space upstairs for the kids. The downstairs master bedroom offers a large en-suite.
Another unique feature is the in-law suite at the south end of the home.
“This is a true in-law suite, with its own separate entrance, eat-in kitchen, living room, and bedroom with a full bath,” said Turner.
