Property Description
This spacious and captivating Essex County Historic Treasure features 12'-3" ceilings on the first floor and 9'-0" on the second floor. According to the 1940 & 1957 re-published edition of the Essex County Green Book, Woodbourne, located in Upper Essex County, was originally built around 1840 by William Brooke of Brookes Bank. The original home was of stately proportions with 12 spacious rooms, an observatory on the roof, and four tall chimneys. Sadly, the original house burned in 1928. A circa 1930 house was built upon the original basement and foundation, with the original chimneys salvaged and utilized in the construction of the 1930 house. An absolutely mesmerizing and serendipitous columned front Portico / Porch circa 1930, incorporates the broken marble mantles from the original Woodbourne. It is a truly striking feature of the property, which pays homage to the original Woodbourne. One of the most intriguing interior features of this handsome home is the grand entrance hall, which leads to an wide arched opening and center hall, which extends through the length of the first floor, with its soaring 12'+' tall ceilings throughout! 9' ceilings on the 2nd Floor. Original and operational windows were restored (complete with chains and pullies) as well as several transoms and other architectural elements that are not often seen in newer homes. Beautiful floors throughout with Carpet over top of wood floors in some rooms. Modern amenities include updated plumbing, wiring, laundry room, spacious full baths, and loads of storage space. Towering Ancient Magnolias and other ancient trees abound. Circular driveway is paved in addition to other parking areas behind the house up to the 1,350+ square foot Morton Metal Building, which can be utilized as a garage, equipment storage, or workshop. Although this property needs some cosmetic TLC, it is a treasure with fabulous architectural details and bright light-filled spaces. The offering of Woodbourne, circa 1930, is a truly unique and exceptionally rare buying opportunity. Ideally located off of U.S. 17 between Tappahannock and Port Royal. This must-see historic treasure and a diamond in the rough awaits! Exterior siding is Cypress Shingle and Cypress Clapboard. Wonderfully convenient to Fredericksburg, Tappahannock, the Northern Neck, Dahlgren, Richmond, Southern Maryland, and Washington, D.C.
