Property Description

Experience a distinctive piece of Fredericksburg’s history at 1214 Sophia Street, an elegant three level end unit residence in coveted Mary Washington Square. Offering 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths and approximately 1,830 square feet, this exceptional home pairs historic character with an enviable downtown setting overlooking the Rappahannock River. Mary Washington Square occupies the historic site of Fredericksburg’s original community hospital, established here at the turn of the 20th century. The property was later thoughtfully reimagined as a collection of private residences centered around a picturesque flagstone courtyard, preserving the architectural character and sense of place that makes this setting so unique. Antique brick and a slate roof introduce the home’s timeless exterior, while tall ceilings, oversized windows with plantation shutters and abundant natural light create an impressive sense of scale inside. The main level offers a spacious combined living and dining area, providing an inviting setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The adjoining kitchen features granite countertops, pantry storage and windows overlooking the courtyard. A powder room, coat closet and conveniently located laundry complete the main level. The second level features two generously sized bedrooms and two full baths. The primary suite is enhanced by built-ins, crown molding and a walk-in closet. The third level offers a private retreat equally suited as a bedroom, guest suite, office or additional living area, complete with a full bath and ample closet space. Step outside onto the private balcony and take in views across the Rappahannock River toward historic Chatham Manor, creating a remarkable vantage point rarely found in the heart of Downtown Fredericksburg. An assigned off street parking space adds another coveted downtown convenience, while the association maintains the exterior and common areas and provides road maintenance, snow removal and trash service. All of this is just moments from the riverfront, downtown restaurants, shops, parks, historic landmarks and the VRE. Rich in history, architectural character and understated elegance, 1214 Sophia Street presents a rare opportunity to enjoy one of Downtown Fredericksburg’s most distinctive residential settings.
