This property is special; a featured home on the 2007 Virginia House & Garden tour not for its grandeur and size but for the magical spell this house casts upon those who enter. Built in 1874 it has been lovingly renovated to combine the best of both old and new. 3 stories of charm, historic features, contemporary design and total functionality in every room! Everything light, fresh, user-friendly, inviting, immaculate!
Original plank floors, exposed bricks & beams, + Euro-minimalism, modern decor, and family-friendly spaces. Freshly renovated; new appliances, high-end design, impeccable taste but highly livable space. Lower-level is like private "suite" with own entrance, full bath, + bedroom. Family room on 1st floor connected to modern kitchen/breakfast bar + dining nook. Large main deck perfect for al fresco dining (carry-out options abound!) beautiful enchanted garden, peaceful fountain and Victorian playhouse for children (or the child within!).
2nd floor inc. beautiful, peaceful master bedroom with private balcony, river view, elegant bath, flat screen TV, antiques, ample storage. 2nd bedroom kid-friendly, fun, captain's bed, own bath. Light wells and sky lights throughout.
"Best block" in Old Town, friendly, quiet but just 2 blocks from main commercial area with nightlife, diverse cuisine, unique boutiques, waterfront activities, retail & charm! Never need to get in your car! Everything walking distance. Trolley to Metro & minutes to DC. Great base for active tourists or simple wandering, people-watching, shopping, dining, strolling & just soaking in the atmosphere.
In Old Town we take pride in our history and love it when visitors celebrate our historical treasures. But the real gift of Old Town and this little gem of a house is in the juxtaposition of old and new to get something unique & exciting. This historic home will welcome you with open arms the minute you walk up its old iron steps and then surprise you with its fresh perspective! George Washington never slept here but now you can!
