11648 Crest Maple Drive is listed for $525,000 as of November 2015Home for the Holidays in Woodbridge, VA

There is still time to be home for the holidays in this updated, five bedroom, brick front colonial in Woodbridge's sought-after community of Crest Ridge Estates.

Just a quick drive through this small enclave of homes and you will understand why buyers are posed to pounce on homes that are listed in the neighborhood.  Generous lot sizes (over 1/2 acre in size) with stately homes that all back to woods and just a few streets that all end in cul-de-sacs, are the epitome of upscale suburbia.

This Bainbridge model by Ryan Homes is one of the very rare finds in the neighborhood because it has five bedrooms on the upper level.  That leaves all the more room for guest space for visiting relatives over the holidays.

Preparing a holiday feast would be a joy in this kitchen.  More than ample Uba Tuba granite counter space gives place for food prep and even room to display appetizers.  Guests who want to mingle with the cook can sit at the island to visit.  Of course, the kitchen being open to the morning room and family room gives plenty of other peripheral areas that the cook can engage with while still preparing the holiday meal.

 

Kitchen--11648 Crest Maple Drive

The finished recreation area in the basement is an ideal spot for the rowdier football fans to enjoy the games, and not create an overwhelming ruckus to distract the cook.   There's also a full bathroom down here so football fans wouldn't have to run up and down the steps during the commercials.

Two dining areas allow for larger crowds.  The formal dining area is definitely going to be a special ocassion area.  The morning room, with lots of table space and overlooking the fall foliage in the back yard would be where I would choose to sit and enjoy my holiday meal.

Since the Morning Room looks over the Deck, this would be  your view at a Thanksgiving Feast

If you want to be home for the holidays, there is still time to make 11648 Crest Maple Drive yours.  Previously listed at $540,000, the price of this gorgeous home is now $525,000.  This may be the best holiday sale you ever take advantage of.  Call me for your tour today, or take a closer look at all the interior pictures here.

Hi Chris Ann -- I like your description of the neighborhood -- it sounds like the ideal match for many buyers.  Here's hoping the recent price reduction brings forth an offer that can be accepted...just in time to celebrate the holidays and the start of 2016.

That is a lovely home, Chris Ann!  I especially like all the windows!  The kitchen isn't shabby either!

The windows along the morning room are my favorite.  And these owners are so conscientious they even replaced any windows with broken vapor seals.

Hello Chris Ann Cleland, what a great home, if I was moving there I would buy it but will always stay in the Denver area.

I love the exterior, such curb appeal, the scalloping at the roof line, the shutters, the brick work (and I don't know the difference really between Colonial or Georgian, is it Georgian?), the lamp post, brick walk and low rise steps, and whatever you call that curly-q design over the door.

I think it is Georgian with the dental work on along the roof.  However, we call them colonials.
