Woodbridge Single Family Home with Designer Updates
30 Bluejay $837,000

Just down the street from Bluejay Park, and near the end of the cul de sac, this home sits in the outer loop of Woodbridge near Culver Drive. There is a little traffic noise outside. Inside, designer updates have been skillfully used from the inviting front curb landscaping to the immaculate stone floored patio in the back of the home. Each may help this property compete in today’s Woodbridge market. Brand new to the market, about five days, the home is listed at $837,000.
Significant Numbers: Built in 1978, this 1,549 sq. ft. home sits on a 3,920 sq. ft.lot at $540 a sq. ft. HOA dues are $82 a month.
Close up: Wrought iron gates and roses lead to a double door side entrance, where an atrium and wrap around patio create a light filled indoor/outdoor atmosphere. New doors and windows have been installed throughout the home. Wood floors, carpeting, recessed lighting and designer paints work well too.
On the right of the entry there is a good sized living room with fireplace. On the left there is a striking dining room paired with a gourmet kitchen.
The roomy kitchen has a breakfast bar, room for casual dining, new cabinets, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, granite counter tops and a custom tile back splash.
The private side and backyard offers a built in barbecue, stone flooring, artificial grass mixed with raised brick planter beds and detailed landscaping.
The roomy master suite also accesses the patio and includes a bath with walk in shower, custom tile work and granite counters with dual sinks. There are two more light filled bedrooms and another full bath, with laundry in the garage.
