Property Description
This exquisite dwelling stands at the nexus of Caroline and Fauquier, in the heart of Fredericksburg's Historic District, bearing the proud badge of its 1890 inception on a plate by the front door. This 1890 beauty sits on a generously sized city lot, offers more than just a luxurious abode. It boasts a meticulously maintained courtyard, ideal for hosting gatherings, which seamlessly connects to a substantial 2-car garage featuring guest accommodations above. With a sizeable turnaround space facilitating multiple vehicle parking, this property is a scarce find in the city. As you approach the residence, you will notice the striking standing seam metal roof with snow cleats adorning both structures, the meticulous mortar work, and the partial wrap-around porch extending across the front and side of the property. The inviting porch swing is perfect for leisurely summer evenings with neighbors. Speaking of neighbors, the Rising Sun Neighborhood Association, named after the historic Rising Sun Tavern Museum, just across the street, is a vibrant, caring, and active community. The homeowners vouch for it to be simply the best, and it's hard to disagree. With easy walking access to Riverfront Park, Old Mill Park, The Heritage trail, Fredericksburg Food Coop, the Library, the railway station, and an array of restaurants and amenities, this location scores highly on the quality-of-life index. Upon entrance, to your left, a historic fireplace mantel and knob, a token gift from its past lest we forget its age which is easy to do. This home is a move-in ready masterpiece, with no repairs or improvements needed - the previous owners have meticulously prepared this property down to the last detail. Fully renovated since 2006 and regularly upgraded, the house showcases top-quality workmanship and attention to detail in every corner. This isn't merely a property that's better than new; it's a home where the heavy lifting has been done for you, and all that's left is to bask in its splendor. The house radiates warmth and brightness, thanks to Birchwood flooring throughout and the abundant natural light illuminating every room. The potential to convert the living and dining area into a Main Level Primary bedroom and bath is a testament to the forward-thinking design. The airy family room, with its wall-integrated gas fireplace and dedicated guest entry, is perfect for entertaining, as is the beautifully designed courtyard. The kitchen, brimming with natural light, is a dream come true for culinary enthusiasts, boasting thoughtful upgrades fitting for such a splendid property.
