Property Description
Investors and Rehabbers, own a rare piece of Fredericksburg history with this extraordinary circa-1815 brick home, once served as the historic Tempest Tavern. Rich with original character, the property showcases exposed brick walls, massive hand-hewn timber beams, period architectural details, and timeless craftsmanship that cannot be recreated. The main level features radiant floor heating, creating year-round comfort while preserving the home's historic charm. Major system updates include electrical and plumbing improvements completed around 2000, providing a solid foundation for future restoration or modernization. A significant additional is the large unfinished second-floor primary suite, offering space for a spacious primary bedroom and luxury en-suite bathroom. This can make it a 4 bedroom and 4 bathroom house. Much of the layout is already established, giving the next owner an excellent opportunity to complete the space to their own vision while adding substantial value. Ideally located just minutes from Historic Downtown Fredericksburg, the VRE, restaurants, shopping, parks, and local attractions, this property offers a unique blend of history, character, and opportunity. Whether you're looking to restore a historic landmark, create a one-of-a-kind residence, or invest in a truly unique property, this is an opportunity rarely available in Fredericksburg.
