Listing details

Welcome home to this charming historic house built in 1930! Full of original features and modern updates throughout. Located only 1/2 mile from Main Street, this property offers all the conveniences that Culpeper has to offer and easy access to the wonderful restaurants and shops of Main and Davis Streets. At 2656 finished square feet, this house is a great size. With 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths, this home can accommodate a growing family or make room for grandma and grandpa to move in, if needed. One of the largest bedrooms is on the main floor with easy access to the main floor bathroom. This could also serve as a guest room or home office. The 3 other bedrooms and 2 baths are located on the 2nd floor. The master includes an en suite with shower and 2 large closets. All bedrooms have lots of natural light and are quite roomy. The sunny kitchen and laundry were added in 1940 and have both been updated by the current owners. There is plenty of storage including an original built-in with bookshelves. The laundry also has an original storage closet, and open shelving serves as a spacious pantry. The black marble countertops and stainless appliances give the kitchen modern updates while still preserving its original character. The beautiful separate dining room offers a sense of formality when needed, but also allows for relaxed everyday dinners where everyone can gather around the table. The main floor has 9-foot ceilings, and the original hardwood floors remain throughout the house as do the walls constructed of lath and plaster, with the exception of the kitchen, laundry and bathrooms. The solid framing and natural materials make this house super well insulated and keep power bills low. The exterior of the home has so much to offer as well, starting with the beautifully rebuilt front porch! The reconstructed columns and addition of iron railing gives it a grand feel when entering. The brand-new standing seam metal roof and recently painted siding give this home amazing curb appeal. All original windows with pulley system and wavy glass were reglazed and painted just this year. Storm windows added in the 1950s add another layer of insulation to keep the heat out in summer and cold at bay in the winter. The rear deck and newly installed travertine and bluestone patio create wonderful spaces for friends and family to gather for bbq’s and outdoor fun! The firepit patio at the far end of the yard is great for bonfire evenings any time of the year. The beautiful landscape beds and raised garden bed are a gardener’s dream as are the other mature plants found around the property – including mature magnolias and oak, hydrangeas in summer, and daffodils and peonies in spring. The property consists of 2 lots, totaling .64 acres. The lots are listed separately for tax purposes, and both are zoned as R2. This opens many possibilities for future development should you choose to consider those. The house is situated on one lot, while the detached garage sits on the other. The basement is great for storage and includes a chest style freezer, sturdy shelving and access to the back yard. The total square footage is approximately 1000 sq. ft. with a little more than 1/3 consisting of a separate workshop with its own outside access. Don’t wait to schedule your appointment to see this fantastic property! There are so many great features in this home. It won’t last long!
