The Top 3 Things You’ll Love About Living Here: 1. Electric bills that may make you check the statement twice. Thanks to the home’s solar panels, past electric bills have been as low as $10 or less—potentially saving you hundreds of dollars each month compared with typical electricity costs. More money in your pocket and less going to the power company? Yes, please. 2. A potentially game-changing 2.5% assumable VA loan. Qualified buyers may have the opportunity to assume the seller’s existing VA loan at an incredible 2.5% interest rate, subject to lender and VA approval. In today’s market, that is the kind of number that deserves its own spotlight. 3. A commuter-friendly location that helps make life easier. With super convenient access to commuter lots, I-95, Route 1, Quantico, and points north toward Washington, D.C., this location helps take some of the sting out of the daily drive. Lower monthly expenses, an exceptional financing opportunity, and a location that keeps you connected—this home delivers value in all the right places. Welcome to 36 Short Branch Road, a beautifully refreshed end-unit townhome offering three finished levels, three bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, a two-car garage, and an ideal location in Stafford’s desirable Woodstream community. Freshly painted with brand-new carpeting throughout, this spacious home feels bright, clean, and move-in ready. The open and inviting main level offers generous living and dining spaces, along with a well-appointed kitchen featuring ample cabinetry, abundant counter space, island and plenty of room for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, the private primary suite provides a comfortable retreat, while two additional bedrooms offer flexibility for family, guests, or a home office. A conveniently located full-size washer and dryer on the bedroom level makes laundry day a little less of a workout. The finished, above-ground walkout lower level provides additional living space that is ideal for a recreation room, media room, home gym, office, or guest area. Step outside to enjoy the large deck and fully fenced backyard—perfect for grilling, entertaining, pets, or simply relaxing outdoors. Solar panels provide the opportunity for reduced monthly electricity costs, with electric-bill history available to demonstrate potential savings. Additional solar documentation and applicable terms will be provided.
