About this House

Nestled in the heart of the city's sought-after College Heights neighborhood near University of Mary Washington, 1500 Augustine Avenue is a timeless treasure filled with character, warmth, and thoughtful updates. Built in 1940, this charming historic home blends classic architectural details with flexible modern living. From the copper gutters and slate roof to the stone façade and mature landscaping, every inch of this property welcomes you home. A charming walkway winds through lush gardens to the side entrance, where the breezeway connecting the original home to the addition creates the perfect everyday entry. To the left, the thoughtfully designed addition offers exceptional flexibility — currently used as a spacious Family Room, yet equally suited as a luxurious main-level Primary Suite -- see photos for inspiration. This inviting retreat features a newly renovated spa-inspired bathroom with dual vanities, custom tile work, a corner soaking tub, and gleaming corner shower with dramatic vertical tile detail. A large walk-in closet provides abundant storage, while private access to the deck and patio creates a peaceful connection to the outdoors. The backyard is truly a sanctuary, complete with privacy fencing all around, mature shade trees, flowering shrubs, perennial gardens, a detached shed with potting space and storage for tools and toys, plus a charming playhouse ready to delight once again. There is potential for the next owner to create off street parking coming in from Payne Street to the back portion of the yard. Back inside the main home, vintage charm shines throughout. A quaint powder room feels delightfully true to the home’s 1940 roots, while the light-filled kitchen offers generous prep space, ample cabinetry, sunny backyard views, and lovely display shelving above the cabinets. The formal Dining Room is ideal for gatherings and showcases beautiful built-in display shelves perfect for treasured collections. A welcoming front foyer opens into the center hallway and leads to the gracious Living Room — a space that instantly feels like home. Just beyond, a warm and inviting library features a cozy gas fireplace, built-ins for books and keepsakes, and access to a shady elevated porch perfect for relaxing and watching the neighborhood pass by. Upstairs, the spacious primary upper-level bedroom is filled with natural light from abundant windows. Two additional bedrooms, a charming seating nook, and a vintage full bath with classic tilework complete the second level. The lower level provides even more versatile living space with a comfortable Recreation Room/Den featuring additional built-ins, a beautifully renovated third full bath, and a legal fifth bedroom currently used for storage. With its separate exterior entrance, sitting area, and kitchenette space, the lower level offers exciting possibilities for guest quarters, apartment-style living, or multi-generational flexibility. Rental income is an additional option for students within waking distance of the university campus. This home has been lovingly maintained and recent improvements are available to your agent through Agent Remarks -- ask them all about it for your peace of mind. All the work has been done to retain the charm of this home while offering peace of mind.

    "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!."
