Your charming, history-loaded farmhouse on five serene acres awaits in Spotsylvania
County! Introducing 6407 Plank Road.
With roots dating back to 1844, this residence includes three bedrooms, two baths and
dynamic spaces aplenty. It sits on a five-acre lot that’s quietly tucked off Plank Road.
Let’s start with the history of the home, folks! Utilized as a field hospital during the Civil
War, the residence sat on a once 100-acre lot owned by the Absalom McGee family.
Take a look at any Battle of Chancellorsville map and this homesite is right there.
Zooming in on the five acres today, the woods on-site have been cleared – within them,
you’ll find walking paths aplenty and a general park-like vibe. There is a massive open
field behind the home and, for storage, there is an open shed on a concrete pad and an
old barn down by a softly trickling creek.
The home itself is a stately beige with black shutters. A porch runs along the front of the
home for taking in the landscape – it has popping baby blue ceilings. Note the magnolia
tree out front, pear trees within the side yard and English boxwoods along the front of
the property adding that much more to its aura.
Heading inside the residence and on the main level, you’re greeted with the carpeted
living room with a closed fireplace. Note the tall baseboards and intricate crown molding
throughout. A set of glass doors segues to the sunroom with bright window surrounds,
wainscoting and a door to the outdoor utopia. Off the sunroom is the laundry room with
machinery and shelving, and then you arrive at the kitchen.
The kitchen includes tons of light cream cabinetry, quartz counters, white beamed
ceilings, tile flooring and a fireplace. Rounding out the lower level, you’ll find a full bath
with a tub/shower combo and, off the kitchen, a breezeway that leads to a massive
storage area.
Heading upstairs, there are three carpeted bedrooms and a full bath. All of the
bedrooms have a fireplace space. Of the two secondary bedrooms, one has two
closets. The primary bedroom includes two closets and a lovely built-in bookshelf. The
full bath is right outside the primary bedroom and is equipped with a single vanity white
sink, tile flooring and tub/shower combo. All of the bedrooms include awesome
mounted floor heaters. The lower level is oil heated and there are window A/C units
throughout. There is a hand-dug cellar for bonus storage.
The home is serviced by Spotsylvania County Public Schools with Chancellor
Elementary, Chancellor Middle and Riverbend High School as its designated learning
spots. From the residence’s doorstep, a number of grocery, shopping and dining
destinations await along Route 3 within 10 minutes. I-95 access (Route 3 exit) is within
15 minutes east as is Downtown Fredericksburg. Culpeper and Orange are within 30
minutes.
