Description

Prospect Hill is a Georgian Colonial brick house built in 1842 by Basil Gordon, a nephew of a wealthy merchant from Falmouth. Situated on a prominent hill overlooking the Rappahannock River Valley, the 70 ac property is just min from Fredericksburg, yet very private. The 5,000 sq ft Flemish-bond brick manor house was completely renovated in 1986 keeping in place all of its original wood work, and heart pine floors. The center hall which measures 10'x38', has floor boards that run the whole length, with no breaks. From the hall the visitor is drawn to the beautiful curved staircase and to the ornate fanned transom over the front door. Also on the first floor, Living rm (18'x20'), Dining rm (16'x18'), Library (16'x18'), kitchen (16'x18'), all with 11' ceilings, and a full bathroom. The current owners added a period matching addition which connects a large family rm through the kitchen. On the second floor there is the master suite, with large bath, two additional bedrms, and a full bath. The partially finished English basement includes an office/bedrm, wine cellar, laundry, utility and storage rooms. Other improvements include a detached 3 bay garage, workshop, kennel, garden sheds, and formal gardens designed by Gordon Chapel.

    "Neighbors recognize and assist dog owners (lost or runaway pets, wild life spottings, etc...),lots of good sniffs, and lots of other dogs in the neighborhood. Sidewalks would be great, but that’s the unfortunate cost of not having an HOA. Dog owners pick up after their pets. "
