Description

If privacy, natural beauty and visible updates are what you crave, 105 Jib Drive checks every box and then some! Tucked away on a combination of two lots (one could be a separate potential building lot) totaling nearly three and a half serene acres in a quiet, established neighborhood of North Stafford (with no HOA!), this classic Cape Cod offers that perfect blend of charm, upgrades and space inside and out. Despite the tucked-away feel, there is no sacrificing convenience! The property sits on a state-maintained road, and within 15 minutes, you can be at either of two I-95 exits – Garrisonville Road or Courthouse Road – or, the Brooke Road VRE station. Also within minutes, you can launch your boat at Hope Springs Marina or a kayak at Aquia Creek. Fish, swim or bird watch at Aquia Landing. Join in a variety of sporting activities at the Rouse Center or shop at Embrey Mill. Quantico and Downtown Fredericksburg are both less than 25 minutes away, yet the vibe here is pure country calm! The home itself has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated through the years. Its exterior was recently re-sided (2021) in a soft beige hue accented by hunter green shutters and doors, keeping true to its Cape Cod roots. Major improvements include a 50-year roof installed in 2015, new hardscaping and paved drive in 2016, a heat-pump system in 2021, replacement windows in 2023 and a brand-new hot-water heater in 2024. The front yard stretches nearly a half-acre -- open, sunny and mostly level. It’s ideal for gardening or an afternoon game of catch! A concrete walkway and landscaped retaining walls lead to the welcoming front entrance. The paved driveway wraps around to the rear, where an inviting 14-by-20-foot deck becomes the heart of outdoor fun. The deck is shaded by a handcrafted pergola and surrounded by colorful roses, perfect for weekend cookouts or quiet morning coffee. There are two backyard sheds for tools, bikes, kayaks and... you name it! One of the sheds also houses a gas powered generator which is hard wired to the house providing electricity to parts of the home as desired in the event of a power outage. Step inside the residence to comfortable living space where every inch has been visibly cared for. The main level, with solid hardwood flooring, opens to a cozy living room with ceiling fan and easy flow into the eat-in kitchen, complete with oak cabinetry, ceramic tile floors and updated quartz countertops. Also on the main level are two bedrooms (also with ceiling fans), a full bath and a convenient laundry closet with newer washer and dryer. The hall bath was remodeled in 2022 with a modern walk-in shower and built-in bench. Upstairs, the layout flexes beautifully to your needs. The current owners use it as a spacious primary suite: the true primary is on one side, a dressing room, nursery or even office space on the other, plus a full bath which was also updated with a new tub and surround in 2025. The entire upper-level features solid hardwood floors, custom shades, ceiling fans and abundant closet space—and a pull-down attic access for even more storage! 105 Jib Drive feels like the kind of home that’s hard to find and easy to love!
