Charming Historic Cottage – 710 Caroline St Unit D, Fredericksburg, VA 22401 ("The Flounder House")

Tucked away in the heart of downtown Fredericksburg, "The Flounder House" is a rare and beautifully preserved historic gem unlike anything else in the city. Accessed through a private alley gate to the right of the black front door, this unique cottage sits quietly at the center of the city block and offers a rare blend of privacy, charm, and convenience.

This two-bedroom, one-bath home features original wood beam ceilings, old brick flooring in the kitchen, and rich architectural character throughout. The interior includes a cozy living space, full bathroom, and a compact washer/dryer combo for added convenience. Step outside to enjoy your own brick patio and fully fenced backyard—a private oasis right in the center of downtown.

Located just steps from restaurants, shops, the riverfront, and the VRE/Amtrak station, this property combines walkability with the charm of historic living. It’s truly a one-of-a-kind opportunity to rent a piece of Fredericksburg history. A resident benefits package is required. Pets may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Contact GEM Realty today to schedule a private showing of this extraordinary downtown cottage. Opportunities to live in a home like this don’t come around often!
