513 Princess Anne St, Fredericksburg, VA 22401

This home celebrates its bicentennial this year, having been built in 1822. Situated in the historic district of old town Fredericksburg and originally built for David C Coyle, this charming home proudly displays many original features you are sure to fall in love with. Four finished levels allow for flexibility and creativity. Enter the center hallway and on your right is the large formal living room with brick fireplace and carved wood mantle. Windows look out onto the street and let the sun flood into this inviting space. The center hallway has a great under-stair storage closet and don't miss the panel of exposed original brick work on your left as you pass into the kitchen area. On the opposite wall are examples of the original structure and how it has changed - "then and now" snapshot. The kitchen has ample room for a table and informal meals. A half bath and laundry closet are both convenient to the main living area. Head upstairs to the craft room/home office landing and see the primary bedroom, also featuring a brick fireplace and wooden mantle. The second bedroom is tucked away at the back of the house and a full bath serves both bedrooms. Wander up one more flight of stairs to the finished attic which features exposed beams and a fun space to make your own - a play room, office, additional bedroom, or artist's studio. The features in this house are charming so be on the lookout for them. Hand carved wooden stair rails, original hardwood floors throughout, three glorious fireplaces, exposed brick, and an iron mailbox often included in the "Itty Bitty City" scavenger hunt. This piece of history doesn't change hands often so make it your own at the 200 year mark. Another hidden gem is the cellar apartment! Head out back and step down from the deck onto the paved driveway and lush lawn. The weathered brick stairwell leads to an amazing English basement apartment for guests, potential Airbnb or short/long term rental. Featuring brick floors and partial brick walls, this hideaway is charming and unique. The front room could serve as a kitchen (the addition of a small stove and fridge would make it complete) and there's room for a small dining table, as well. The back room has the most glorious brick hearth that is romantic and inviting. A small closet, Murphy bed, and full bath make this apartment the perfect place to unwind and entertain guests. The back yard features a nice shaded lawn complete with historic brick walkways and a shed for your tools and toys. Located 1/2 block from the downtown train station, your commute on the VRE won't even require a drive to the station. Convenient to many shops, restaurants and historic attractions, this location is simply perfect. The house is zoned CD - both commercial and residential - so let your imagination guide you to potential income, as well.
