Property Description
Beautifully updated and full of character, 226 Hillcrest Drive is that rare Fredericksburg find where thoughtful renovations meet timeless charm on a huge city lot! Major improvements include a renovated primary bath (2024), new LVP flooring on the main level (2021), and a new roof, furnace, and hot water heater (2019) — providing years of worry-free ownership. There's something undeniably special about this home – a perfect blend of mid-century appeal, stone-clad craftsmanship, and modern comfort! Spanning 1,726 square feet across a generous one-third-acre lot, this three-bedroom, two-bath beauty offers both space and style in a location that's hard to beat. Tucked off Lafayette Boulevard with no HOA to fuss over, the home welcomes you with a stately stone façade and a wood-accented front porch perfect for morning coffee or evening wine. The manicured front yard features raised flower beds and an asphalt driveway with ample parking. Out back, the deep yard is an entertainer's dream — complete with a firepit, concrete seating area, detached one-car garage, and storage shed — all framed by mature trees for privacy and shade. Inside, natural light pours through white-trimmed windows, highlighting an inviting open layout that flows easily from the front living room into the kitchen. Arched entryways preserve the home's mid-century character, while modern updates shine with white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless appliances, and a gas stove. The spacious primary suite includes a walk-in closet behind a sliding barn door and a freshly renovated en-suite bath with gold accents, double vanity, and spa-worthy walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms share a well-appointed hall bath, including one with a charming brick-style accent wall. Downstairs, the finished lower level expands the living space — ideal for a movie room, game lounge, or bar area — plus a separate unfinished zone for storage. Location ties it all together: from this special pocket of the city, you're just minutes from Downtown Fredericksburg, the VRE, I-95, the University of Mary Washington, Mary Washington Hospital, Cosner's Corner, and endless shopping and dining along Route 3. If you've been searching for a home that feels fresh, full of charm, and close to everything — 226 Hillcrest Drive delivers it beautifully. Come see why it feels like home from the moment you step onto that stone porch.
