118 MILKWEED DRIVE, Lake Frederick, VA 22630

There’s a quiet ease the moment you pull into the drive with clean lines and a covered front porch that gives just enough welcome without feeling staged. Built in 2021 and still as fresh as move-in day, this Lake Frederick home proves that low maintenance living doesn’t mean sacrificing warmth or character.

Inside, light pours across the engineered hardwoods that run throughout the entire home, no carpet or transitions, just a seamless foundation that anchors every room. The open concept layout is airy with natural light streaming in from every direction and a layout that feels connected yet purposefully designed. The kitchen strikes just the right balance between style and function with granite countertops, classic wood cabinets, stainless appliances, and an island that keeps prep, dining, and conversation flowing naturally.

The adjacent dining area lands in that sweet spot: informal enough for breakfast in bare feet, but still perfect for lingering dinners that turn into long conversations. Just beyond that is the great room, where oversized windows and a sliding door to the covered patio bring the outdoors in.

This backyard setup is one of the home’s quiet highlights. Green space framed by a covered patio means you can enjoy the outdoors in any weather, whether you’re grilling, gardening, or just listening to the rain with a glass of something good in hand.

The primary suite is tucked at the rear of the home, designed to be equal parts peaceful and functional. It’s bathed in light thanks to three large windows, with enough room to create a true retreat. The en suite bathroom includes a dual-sink vanity, a walk-in shower, and a generously sized walk-in closet that keeps everything out of sight but within reach.

Up front, a second bedroom gives you flexibility. It’s ideal for overnight guests or a hobby zone with a full hall bath is just step away. And then there’s the dedicated home office, framed by glass, it’s a quiet space ideal for working, reading, or dreaming up your next adventure. It’s the kind of space that adapts to you.

The dedicated laundry room is neatly tucked away and connects directly to a two-car garage, giving you all the functional space you need to keep life flowing without cluttering your main living areas.

But this listing is about more than just a beautiful home, it’s about the lifestyle that comes with it. Lake Frederick is a community designed to enrich your days and expand your options. Did I forget to mention that all the lawn maintenance is included, no worries, just shut the door and leave. Residents also enjoy resort style amenities including indoor and outdoor pools, tennis and pickleball courts, a state of the art fitness center, a dedicated dog park, and over eight miles of scenic trails that wind through the woods and around the lake. You can meet friends for an event at the clubhouse or unwind over a sunset dinner at Region’s 117, the community’s lakeside farm to table restaurant.

And when it’s time to explore beyond your own street, you’re just a short drive from I-66 and I-81. Even closer are some of Virginia’s most iconic natural wonders, including Skyline Drive and Shenandoah National Park. Whether your ideal weekend involves hiking, wine tasting, antiquing, or doing absolutely nothing at all, this spot makes it easy.

This isn’t just downsizing. It’s upgrading to a simpler, smarter way to live, with just enough space and none of the hassle. A turnkey, low maintenance lifestyle in a home that’s easy to love. From the first hello to the final showing, this place is a pleasant surprise in all the best ways.
