About this home

Built in 1978 by Dave and Frances O'Dell, this classic Cape Cod has been a special part of Montross for nearly five decades. The O'Dells raised their two sons here while becoming familiar faces in the community through the Blue & Gray grocery store, and Dave's many years of service as mayor of Montross. Today, the home offers an opportunity for a new owner to continue its story. Situated on two lots totaling 0.83+/- acre, the property enjoys a beautiful setting with mature shade trees, a paved driveway, and a convenient location in the heart of town-close to restaurants, shopping, and everyday necessities. The spacious home features 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, living room and dining room with hardwood floors, family room with fireplace, kitchen, utility room, and an unfinished basement offering additional storage and possibilities. While the interior is ready for updating, the home offers generous space, a desirable setting, and plenty of potential for a buyer ready to make it their own. Recent improvements include a roof replaced in 2019 and one heat pump replaced in 2022. Public water and sewer are connected, and the home is equipped with a generator. A whole-home inspection and termite inspection were recently completed, providing additional transparency and confidence for prospective buyers. A wonderful opportunity to bring new life to a well-loved Montross home in an exceptionally convenient location.
