About This Home
Historic Downtown Fredericksburg | Circa 1935 Cape Cod
Step into the charm of Historic Downtown Fredericksburg with this lovingly maintained 1935 Cape Cod, offering the perfect blend of character, comfort, and convenience. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with 1,248 sq. ft. of finished living space PLUS an unfinished basement—and is ideally situated just blocks from the city’s most iconic shops, restaurants, parks, and the Rappahannock River.
Inside, the home retains its original hardwood floors and timeless design elements, thoughtfully updated to meet today’s needs. The main level features two spacious bedrooms, a beautifully remodeled full bath, and both formal living and dining rooms with tall ceilings and abundant natural light. Most windows were upgraded to Pella in 2011, with the exception of the two original front picture windows that add historic charm and curb appeal.
The remodeled kitchen is a cook’s dream, featuring granite counters, rich cabinetry, pantry with pull-out storage and wine racks, as well as stainless steel appliances.
Upstairs, you'll find an expansive third bedroom that was professionally remodeled to create three separate living spaces with the addition of a partition wall—ideal for flexible use as a guest area, home office, or studio. If desired, the wall can be easily removed to restore the space to a luxurious full-floor primary suite, complete with two spacious walk-in closets and fully remodeled en-suite bath.
The unfinished basement includes a newer washer and dryer, utility sink, painted concrete floors, and a large workbench—perfect for hobbies or additional storage.
Enjoy outdoor living on the composite front porch with wood railings updated in 2019, or in the private backyard with a charming brand new deck—perfect for entertaining, morning coffee, or cozy fall evenings.
