About this property

Charming Writer's Cottage in the Heart of Middleburg

Come and stay, be inspired, write a best seller or spend a cozy weekend shopping and dining in the heart of Virginia horse country.

From this fully updated 1820 historic home that was once the dormitory for the original Middleburg Academy, you can walk to many fine restaurants, and enjoy premier shopping and antiques. The only known fully permitted historic vacation property actually in the Old Town of Middleburg!
The downstairs features a nicely appointed furnished living room that includes cable television, comfortable seating, with an adjoining half bath; a stately tavern room that disguises a home office with full internet access and a working Royal Deluxe typewriter that Ernest Hemingway would surely envy; and an eat-in kitchen with all necessary cooking items, adjoining a door to the deck and spacious back yard.
The upstairs features a large bedroom with a very comfortable Queen-sized bed adjoining an over-sized full bath with a walk-in shower. This home is ready for you to enjoy - stay a while - use the typewriter!! Begin the story . . . . .
