About this property
Cozy Designer two bedroom apartment, Smoke free, close to many stores.
INTRODUCTION:
A cozy, comfortable smoke free apartment that’s close to Historic Fredericksburg (7 miles) and all its charm including; fabulous restaurants, Expo Convention Center and just far away enough to be Quiet. (Just click on above photos to see larger with descriptions). You’ll love the proximity to Civil War Historic Battleground Parks, Elwood Historic Plantation and the Shenandoah mountains and National Park. Great proximity to DC, Richmond, and 30 min from Kings Dominion fun park.
THE SPACE
This is a 1000 square foot private entrance two bedroom apartment. It has a large bathroom with a tub/shower. The private entrance with two large side lights (glass) gives a great open feeling and natural light to the great room style just within. It includes a well stocked full kitchen which includes full size appliances including dishwasher, garage disposal, frig, range and small appliances like blender, microwave and not least a Keurig coffee/tea/hot coco maker with a supply of K-cups. A large breakfast bar with stools is handy for visiting with others as you cook. The dining area has multifunction, serving as an eating area with a table with 5 chairs and an office area with desk stocked with some supplies you might need.
The large living room area includes an L shaped couch that two can sleep on with the included pillows and linens. A Queen Air Mattress is available if you prefer for Two upon request. Here you also find the Fire TV and cozy gas fire log stove for a great experience and comfort. The first bedroom includes a queen bed and a pac-n-play for infants you can set up anywhere. Second bedroom sleeps 2 on two single mattresses one being a pull out one and a crib as shown in pictures. Sleeping for 6 plus infant who does not count as a person and stays free if sleeps in the Pack N Play or crib.
NO SMOKING ON THE PROPERTY ALLOWED

The air conditionings and heat thermostat is upstairs so if your not comfortable just give us a text.

The bedroom closet is available for your things and has the iron and ironing board and extra linens. We have provided paper/office supplies on the desk for your use.
Extra blankets, sheet and pillows for the L shaped couch (not a pullout but comfy) that can sleep 2 is available for extra guest use . If you should need a queen floor air mattress set up instead of the use of couches please text us we can have it set up. That gives sleeping for up to 6 plus an infant in a pack n play or our crib.
