Property Description
IF THESE WALLS COULD TALK... THE GEORGE LEWIS HOUSE WOULD HAVE SO MUCH TO SAY OVER THE CENTURIES. BUILT BY EARLY PATRIOTS, GEORGE LEWIS AND HIS FAMILY IN 1796, IT WAS HOME TO PRESIDENT GEORGE WASHINGTON'S MOTHER'S DOCTOR, THEN STEAMBOAT CAPTAINS, NOTABLE OFFICIALS , ETC. DURING THE CIVIL WAR, IT WAS IN THE LINE OF FIRE. A LIVE CANNONBALL WAS FOUND IN A CHIMNEY IN THE 20TH CENTURY! TODAY, THIS HOUSE IS COMFORTABLE BUT ELEGANT WHILE UNMISTAKEABLY RESPECTING THE HERITAGE OF YESTERYEAR. THE SPACIOUS FIRST FLOOR INCLUDES A MASTER BEDROOM EN SUITE SO ONE-STORY LIVING IS POSSIBLE. LOCATED WITHIN THE DISTINCTIVE HISTORIC DISTRICT COMMUNITY, RESTAURANTS, ENTERTAINMENT, HISTORIC SITES, AS WELL AS THE AMTRAK/VRE STATION ARE WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE. ENJOY THE BEAUTIFUL GARDEN AND OFF-STREET PARKING. YOU'LL LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE. THERE IS SO MUCH TO DISCOVER AS YOU CREATE YOUR OWN CHAPTER IN HISTORY.
