You have to see this charming cottage in person to truly appreciate all it has to offer. Featuring 3 BD and 2BA, this little slice of American history, situated on two lots totalling almost half an acre, will transport you back in time. From the refinished red oak floors in most of the home, and the rustic brick floor in the kitchen, as well as the hand finished glass-paned doors, arched doorways, and the custom woodwork throughout this home, you will be delighted and surprised at every corner. This home is unique and painstakingly hand customized. One of the bathrooms features roman arches, hand fluted columns, crown and dentil molding, brand new commode, and Pergo flooring. There is also custom shelving and hand hewn crown molding, trim, and chair rail throughout the home. The living room features a beautiful, wood-burning, brick fireplace. And, as a bonus, the attic is already floored, just waiting for someone to turn it into another bedroom or artist studio! There is a deck at the back of the home, and a long ramp that leads up to it. Sitting behind the home, there is a fantastic workshop with electricity and custom shelving. Though you can’t see it now, just a few years ago the gardens were resplendent with gorgeous plants of all varieties and colors. There are also brick pathways and a small hand-laid brick patio area in the backyard. Due to the seller’s deteriorating health the last 3-4 years, her beautiful gardens and walkways have been reclaimed by mother nature. However, a good tilling of the land and clean up of the grounds should jumpstart the gardens again (as many of her flowers were perennials) and reveal all the beauty that is waiting to be rediscovered. Not only does this home exude historical charm and unique character, it offers a large lot for gardening, playing, or just relaxing. It is conveniently located just a few minutes away from Old Towne Fredericksburg and George Washinton’s boyhood home at Ferry Farm, as well as shops, grocery stores, and restaurants.
