About This Home
As of August 2020This historic home built in 1898 is known as one of "The three sisters houses" in Historic Downtown Fredericksburg. Beautifully updated! Brand new water heater! All new AC added in 2018. Updated Master bath with grand over sized tiled shower! Updated Kitchen! Old wallpaper removed and replaced with fresh neutral paint throughout, except one room which could be a master on the main level! Updated light fixtures, as well as window and door hardware. A wrought iron fence was added to the landscaped side yard with fire pit and seating. A large brick back patio is peaceful and inviting for grilling or relaxing. A detached two-car garage with driveway and off-street parking only adds to this downtown gem! So many aspects make this home unique and desirable! Original pocket doors downstairs and up. Original banister on stairway. Huge windows bring the outside light in. Original hardwood flooring throughout. Beautiful millwork. Tons of storage! Corner lot! Rappahannock River view from the upstairs bedroom! Access to the river is just across the street! The canal path that runs along the river is only steps away! Walking the dog, jogging, and biking made simple and easily accessible. Walk to Old Mill Park! Walk to restaurants and shops! This "sister" is looking for a new family! You won't be disappointed.
