You decide where you choose to live, the neighborhood that becomes your community, the place to hang your hat. Location is more than a zip code or a spot on the map when you decide to call it home. The City of Fredericksburg is one of the most desirable places to live in our region, not because of its closeness to Richmond & DC or because of the walking lifestyle the city allows, not because of its history or its beautiful architecture. Fredericksburg is so loved because despite its growth & its modernization it has retained the small town spirit now usually reserved only for old movies. It is a place where your neighbors know your name & kindness is just part of the culture. Here community is not a descriptive word for where you live but something that describes who you are & where you belong. 1409 Dandridge Street sits nestled in the heart of Fredericksburg's College Heights District. It is a part of the area's past & has kept its 1950's charm as the city modernized around it. 1409 Dandridge bridges the gap between history & modern convenience with updates throughout that pull this mid-century home from Fredericksburg's past into its future. This light filled home sits on an expansive lot lovingly maintained with perennials continuing to bloom, a vegetable garden, & fenced yard. The location allows access to every part of downtown with just a short walk. Shopping, restaurants, coffee shops, & entertainment are always only blocks away. The property leaves little for the new owner to do but turn the key & move in. From the foyer you enter a large living room filled with windows. The living room's wood burning fireplace and original hardwood remind you of the home's cozy mid-century roots, while the open modernized kitchen pulls you back to the convenience of the present. The living space is substantial & accommodates multiple furniture styles & arrangements. The kitchen, with kitchen table space, allows the cook in your home to create while still being part of the conversation. The main level office gives you a place to work from home or create a home studio or extra bedroom. The main level bedrooms look out on trees and city views reminding you where you are, while the lower room and finished basement gives you the space to expand. The back screened porch brings the outdoors in. Every room in this home is light filled & inviting. Curl up by the fire in the open living room. Read a book in the shade on your screened back porch. Enjoy a few moments of quiet in your expansive backyard. Come relax into your new home. Come be part of our Fredericksburg Community.
