Property Description
Own a piece of Ashland's rich history in this beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated home, built by the railroad in the 1840s—this is one of the oldest homes in town. Nestled on a spacious 0.8-acre lot just three blocks from downtown, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home features soaring 11.5-foot ceilings, original heart pine floors throughout, and four classic brick fireplaces (two with electric inserts, all non-functioning but full of charm).The front living room and parlor offer stunning floor-to-ceiling windows, gorgeous chandeliers and built in bookshelves. The expansive main level includes a rare first-floor primary suite with soaking tub, separate shower and walk-in closet. The kitchen features large walk-in pantry and huge island and opens to the dining room. The spacious laundry/utility room is just off the kitchen. Majorly renovated in 2002 with updated electrical, plumbing, and drywall, this home combines historic character with modern comfort. A detached 480 sq ft heated and cooled entertainment space was added in 2021, complete with exposed beams, architectural salvage from Caravati's, and storage above an oversized 24' x 24' carport—an ideal space for gatherings, games, or hobbies. A 192 sq ft insulated office with electricity provides a private retreat for work or creative pursuits. Recent updates include a new roof in 2022 (rubber for the top, metal for porches), new HVAC zone in 2024 (second zone installed in 2017), and natural gas backup. Outside, enjoy a spacious backyard with a rear deck, patio, and underground electric dog fence. A large detached garage offers even more storage. Located just blocks from Ashland's restaurants, shops, library, wine shop, farmers market, and Randolph-Macon College—just steps away. Truly one of a kind!
