This is a rare opportunity for an industrious buyer. As property values in the Stafford and Fredericksburg area continue to rise, and as large plots of land have become more and more scarce, buyers are often priced out of larger luxury homes. Trying to find homes with larger lots for buyers wanting more privacy has also become more challenging as more new build projects have moved into the Stafford area. This home gives buyers the ability to afford a large private residence on a spacious lot if they are willing to complete the construction. For buyers wanting a custom-built home this may be a more affordable option.

275 Lake Forest Drive was a passion project for the owner. Unfortunately, he was unable to finish its construction. His hope was to create a private getaway, overlooking the water (roughly 200 feet from the door), and tucked into 10 acres of forest. The largeness of the logs used and peeked metal roof give the home both a feeling of grandeur and allow it to meld into its wooded surroundings. Completed, this property would be perfect for a nature lover who wants to be close to commuting, downtown, and shopping but still surrounded by the natural world. The build has only been partially finished, with power already run, so the new owner will have to complete the construction but can make it specific to their needs. In comparison to the 800k+ price tag associated with comparable finished homes this property has been listed with the understanding that a buyer will have costs associated with the home's completion. The hope is that we have priced the property low enough, that after effort to complete the build and the expense to customize it, a buyer could have a luxury log cabin home on a 10-acre lot well below the average price for a property this size. This unique property is the perfect place for a buyer hoping to find a home they can make their own.
