Land with Home for Sale in Mechanicsville, Virginia
1937 Retreat Dr, Mechanicsville, VA 23111
Nestled on 3 private acres in Hanover's desirable Farmington neighborhood, this spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offers the perfect blend of comfort, charm, and functionality. Located in the Old Church area, Farmington is known for its large lots and rural feel, yet you're only minutes from shopping, restaurants, and schools along Mechanicsville Turnpike. With approximately 3,200 square feet of living space, this home has room to spread out both inside and out. The first floor features beautiful wood floors and tile, while the second floor offers comfortable carpet. Just off the kitchen, you'll find a convenient office space with a built-in desk, cabinets, and shelving-ideal for working from home, managing household projects, or homework time. The kitchen is well appointed with oak cabinets, granite countertops, tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. Excellent storage throughout the home makes daily living easy and organized. The fifth bedroom/bonus room includes a wet bar and is a fantastic space for entertaining, hosting guests, or creating the ultimate recreation room. Outdoor living is a true highlight here. Enjoy the front porch swing, relax on the screened porch, or entertain on the large stamped concrete patio overlooking the fenced rear yard. Fruit trees and two detached sheds add both charm and practicality, and the side-entry two-car garage provides even more convenience. A special bonus: you can watch the horses grazing in the pasture across the street. Recent updates include fence (2020), crawlspace encapsulation (2021), Stainmaster carpet (2022), roof replacement (2023), refrigerator (2024), crawlspace insulation (2024), attic insulation (2025), washer and dryer (2025), septic service (2025), and chimney sweeping/capping (2025). This is the kind of property that gives you space, privacy, and a little bit of country-without giving up convenience.
