Property Description

Situated in the sought-after Franklin neighborhood just minutes from Pantops and downtown Charlottesville, this light-filled home is a haven for families seeking both space and serenity. Set on two private acres, the property offers breathtaking views of Carter’s Mountain and Monticello from the front porch, while the backyard—bordered by woods and stretching up the ridge—offers an expansive, peaceful retreat perfect for kids to explore and play. Inside, a thoughtful floor plan includes two primary bedroom suites—one on the main level for long-term convenience and another upstairs with a beautifully remodeled bath. The main level also features a spacious living area, a bright home office or studio, and an updated kitchen that opens to a full-length rear deck. Fresh paint throughout gives the home a clean, modern feel, and a built-in speaker system adds ambiance to select rooms. The walk-out basement with rough-in plumbing provides excellent storage or future living space. A rare blend of comfort, setting, and flexibility—set in a family-friendly neighborhood without an HOA, less than 10 minutes to Charlottesville.
