There is just something special about a house built in the 1700s that you can feel from the moment you step across the threshold. The wide plank wood floors throughout, 10-foot ceilings, and large rooms , tall mantels, create an inviting atmosphere.  While the address is Caroline Street, this house's main entrance is on Fauquier Street, a quite one way street where the horse carriage goes by daily. The sound of hoofs outside your window, how charming is that!   This home has been lovingly maintained over the years and is ready for its new owners. Located in a prime location in the core of downtown, it is just steps away from the library, VRE, shops, and restaurants. It has a gorgeous courtyard and garden, so peaceful and surrounded by a multitude of flowers, herbs, and shrubs. Inquire for an extensive list. The kitchen is welcoming and bright, the kind of kitchen where you want to sit down and stay for tea and scones. The dining room is large and can accommodate any sized dining table, surrounded by beautiful built-ins and a fireplace mantel. . The family room is expansive and a delightful area to entertain, featuring beamed ceilings, lots of windows, and a soapstone stove that completes the space. While the home lists four bedrooms, there are indeed potentially six bedrooms on this property and 3 1/2 baths. The lower-level guest quarters is self-contained with a full bath, kitchenette, and its own private entrance if needed. This property also has a very hard-to-find oversized garage with tons of storage space. Above it, you will find another guest quarters with a full bath,  perfect for any young adults still living at home or as an art studio or home office.The property is fully fenced for pets or children. This special and  beautiful atmospheric home is a unique offering. Longing for a taste of yesteryear but with modern comforts, this might be the one.
