Go for the WIN-WIN-WIN-WIN...Stop competing and risking everything to buy a house. Instead, build your own home that you know exactly what condition it is in and that it meets all your needs, get all the benefits of a wonderful community, and yet do so on a spacious country lot minutes from downtown Fredericksburg. Now is the perfect time to purchase the largest lot in the beautiful Stonegate Manor community, taking advantage of this is rare opportunity to own such a unique and spacious property so close to shopping, dining, entertainment, and more and yet so far from the noise and busyness of the city. The Stonegate Manor community is very private with only 10 properties; nine (9) of which consist of 3 - 5.5 acre lots. However, this partially cleared lot has 48.26 acres and is ready for you to build your dream home and enjoy the many splendors that this lot has to offer. The lot has ATV and walking trails cut through the woods, and easy access to enjoy the water. It has been partially cleared to build a home and install a drain field, borders the Lick Run stream, and it has successfully perc tested for a 6 bedrooms conventional system (the lot would need to be re-tested to confirm 6 bedrooms but 5 bedrooms should not require it - the sellers have received approval for their 4 bedroom plan). You will also find a private well installed (the well will need to be re-certified and connected to when the home is built), and electric and high-speed cable access at the lot. And, to further help your building efforts, the owners prepared the packet for submission to the health department for building permit approval for their preliminary layout showing builder proposed locations of the home, driveway, and drain field that can save you time and money; approximately 2.5 - 3 months. The icing on the cake is that the immediate area just on the other side of Lick Run is part of a conservation easement that will help provide an additional privacy buffer of over 20 acres for further peaceful enjoyment. Whether you simply want the privacy and serenity that comes with being surrounded by trees and a stream, the ability to conveniently enjoy mother nature on your own private land, or you simply want to get away without losing the conveniences of being close to town then this may be the lot for you.
