Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from September 12, 2023
With an absolutely delightful back yard, interior renovations and an incredible Downtown Fredericksburg location, 1210 College Avenue is a utopia in the heart of it all! Built in 1943 and beautifully enhanced through the years, this Cape Cod-style residence spans three bedrooms, two baths and 1,851 finished square feet. First and foremost, let’s talk about this location! In addition to the University of Mary Washington being literally at your doorstep, the heart of Downtown Fredericksburg, Mary Washington Hospital, the VRE/Amtrak station and more are all within 5 minutes. For commuters, I-95 access (Route 3) is 5 minutes west. Zooming in on the property’s acreage, the back yard is completely fenced in, beaming with plants as well as an extensive hardscaping for entertaining. For storage and/or parking there is a single-car garage/shed combo. For added parking, the residence has its own aggregate/brick paver driveway and street parking is available, too. Out front, it’s a very low-maintenance landscaping vibe with quaint gardens along the home’s front side. The home itself is a modern gray/blue, the front door is Tiffany blue, and the roof was recently updated! Stepping inside, gleaming original hardwood floors, natural light and Fredericksburg charm abound. Core areas on the main level include the family room, dining room and the recently renovated kitchen. Highlights of the kitchen include new quartz counters, new cabinetry, new backsplash, new stainless-steel appliances and a new farmhouse sink – yes, it is new and modern bliss! Off the kitchen is a sunroom space with ample cabinetry space. Rounding out the main level... yes, there is a dedicated den/office as well as a primary suite! The primary bath was renovated within the last 10 years and includes a fully-tiled walk in-shower and radiant heated floors. Upstairs you’ll find the home’s two remaining generously sized bedrooms and full bath (tub/shower combo). The upstairs has those beautiful original hardwood floors, too! Within the bedrooms, make sure to note the added built-in wall storage with cedar accents. All of the bedrooms within the home have a new ceiling fan. There is a basement that is anchored by a ceramic tile floored, finished laundry room. The laundry room is sizeable with generous counter space, a sink and space for a refrigerator. The remainder of the downstairs footprint is unfinished and may easily serve as a home gym space and/or storage area. As for the home’s systems, the HVAC has been regularly maintained and there is a new hot water heater! Location, location, location... plus upgrades and a comfortable yet elegant atmosphere? It’s all waiting for you at 1210 College Avenue!

What Locals Say about Upper College Heights

  • Jessohoh
    "College sports, open lecture series and theater, cultural and historically significant sites, bars, restaurants, live music venues, farmers market, running and walking trails."

  • John
    "This area of the city (College Heights) has a lot of college kids, but is not very college friendly compared to other college towns. The main shopping area for the college is several blocks away from campus and requires some form of motorized transportation to get to. If you try to make any changes to your house, the ARB (Architectural Review Board) will make it next to impossible for you; even if keeping with the same style of structure. While the police department is has high visibility, the fire and rescue service in Fredericksburg takes forever to respond to calls, most times requiring help from other counties."

  • Rob
    "The town of Fredericksburg (proper) is truely the last best kept secret in any area that is accessable to DC. Few places are still small town and yet so convient to DC. We lived there for a year or so before we had to move for a new job...and LOVED it!."
