This study investigates curvature homogeneous three-manifolds modeled on a symmetric space, which exhibit critical characteristics for some quadratic curvature functional. If the Ricci operator is diagonalizable, the critical metrics are 1-curvature homogeneous Brinkmann waves and are critical for a specific functional. Otherwise, the critical metrics are modeled on Cahen-Wallach symmetric spaces and they are Kundt spacetimes critical for all quadratic curvature functionals.
