Description

Built in 1930 and thoughtfully renovated in 2021, 1104 College Ave. is an excellent example of the Cape Cod and Colonial Revival styles with modern updates. For forty years, this was home to Dr. Alvey, Dean of Mary Washington College, and his family.Prominently sited on a corner lot and raised above street level for additional privacy, with nearly a quarter of an acre, the home overlooks the University of Mary Washington and is less than half a mile to shopping and restaurants in Downtown. Mature boxwoods, crape myrtles and dogwoods provide privacy with an accompanying single-car garage with lots of potential. The home retains much of its original interior elements including oak and pine floors, custom crown molding, a beautiful archway between the living and dining rooms, picture molding in most rooms, sun porch, and built-in china cupboards.Updates in 2021 include repairs and preservation of the slate roof, creation of a first floor primary suite including large walk-in closet with washer/dryer, refinished floors on both levels, and renovated bathrooms with custom 1930s-style tile in the hall bath. The kitchen was enlarged by moving walls, doors, and windows to open the space to lots of light, marble countertops and matching full backsplash, stainless steel appliances including Wolf dual-fuel range. Whole-house radiators were repaired and restored to full function, keeping the house comfortable all winter. Sealed crawlspace, new HVAC system on the first floor and three new split system HVAC units on the second floor. Exterior renovations include new underground drainage also connected to the gutter system, a new patio designed by Betsy Sale off the sunroom, and landscaping to provide additional privacy. A large yard and plenty of room left to create new gardens and outdoor features.This is a unique opportunity to steward a piece of Fredericksburg history in a beautifully designed and updated space.
