Property Description

Rare offering of one of the original homes along historic Cary Street Road, prominently situated on the corner of Ampthill Road and available for the first time in over 30 years. This stately brick residence, crowned by a slate roof, boasts exceptional curb appeal and a remarkable sense of history. The main portion of the Queen Anne–style home was built around 1687 and relocated from the Appomattox River in 1931, and much of its original character has been beautifully preserved. With extraordinary attention to detail throughout, the home features exquisite millwork, multiple fireplaces, wide-plank pine floors, and timeless architectural elements. A wide brick sidewalk, bordered by mature boxwood, leads to a grand foyer and gracious staircase. Privately tucked behind mature evergreens, the property offers convenient access from Ampthill Road and includes a circular paved driveway, two-car detached garage, and additional dedicated off-street parking. The elegant interior offers formal rooms with refined moldings, chair rails, and 9-foot ceilings. Highlights include a spacious living room with fireplace, formal dining room, and an inviting eat-in kitchen with bay window, island, walk-in pantry, double ovens, gas cooking, and high-end appliances. Additional main-level spaces include a cozy family room with built-ins and fireplace, a wet bar room, a library with built-ins and fireplace, and a sunroom with tile flooring, ceiling fan, and access to the patio. Upstairs, the primary bedroom suite features an arched doorway, fireplace, generous en-suite bath, and walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while a fourth bedroom enjoys a private bath and access to a rear staircase. A conveniently located laundry room completes the upper level. The charming 1 bedroom, 1 bath guest house offers a covered porch with fireplace and a beautiful living room featuring a wall of built-ins, wet bar, and French doors. This exceptional historic property is truly a one-of-a-kind opportunity.
