Three Homes With Father’s Day Upgrades Any Dad Would Love

Share News:

Has the dad in your life earned a little something special? These properties have just the right upgrades for a very happy Father’s Day.

One of the most difficult shopping days of the year is coming up: Father’s Day. I remember the time shortly after my parents retired to the beach that my siblings and I chipped in and bought our dad a grill. He was a master griller.

Anyway, we haul this grill up two flights of stairs and present it to him. He looks at it and promptly tells us that he does not want a grill, what were we thinking, and to take it away. We just looked at each other for a minute, picked up the grill, and carried it back down two flights of stairs. I mention the stairs again because that grill was heavy.

My dad has been gone 10 years now and that is the kind of stuff I remember and it makes me laugh. Shopping for dads is tough. That is why I am going to help you out this year. We are going to look at three homes that are on the market right now with upgrades that any father would absolutely love.

Option No. 1

Father's Day, gifts, upgrade

We start on the East Coast. This meat and potatoes house is located at 106 Forbes Street, Fredericksburg, Virginia. It has three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, and is just over 2,100 square feet. The owners are asking $399K.

As you can see, the color pink plays a big role in this house. So what is a guy to do?

“To the man cave!” takes on a very literal interpretation with this listing.

It even has a little moat and bridge to get to the man cave. True to man cave rules, there are no pictures of the interior. You know what they say: What happens in the man cave stays in the man cave.

Option No. 2

Okay, so you do not want to put the effort into building a man cave. Understandable. The next idea will be easy peasy to do.

This lovely home is located at 4703 E LA Mirada Way, Phoenix, Arizona.  It has four bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, and is just over 4,000 square feet. They are asking a little more than $1 million.

The home even backs up to a golf course. But just wait until you see the amenities that make this the perfect Dad home.

Who needs a formal living and dining room when the father of your children can practice his putting come rain or shine? He will be unbeatable at the club, a man among men.

He will get so good at putting that he will have time to practice his other moves.

Option No. 3

Here is option number three for you if the first two gift ideas were not exactly what you had in mind.

You can find this one-bedroom, one-bathroom house at 383 King Road, Castle Rock, Washington. It is 1,308 square feet and the owners are asking almost $300K.

HOT TUB! Just imagine it. Happy Father’s Day to the man of your dreams.

Wait, did I say man of my dreams or your dreams? I got distracted. Mmm, mmm, mmm, mercy me. Wait, what were we talking about? Ah yes, hot tub.

Yes, the dining area table is right on top of the kitchen but you have a hot tub in the middle of your home. What father would not love coming home from work and taking a long soak in his hot tub? I believe that is called livin’ the dream.

So there you go. You have three options that I am sure any father would appreciate. The best part is that you do not have to carry anything up any stairs. Here is wishing all the Dads out there a Happy Father’s Day.
