329 OLD BRIDGE RD, AMISSVILLE,VA 20106

Step into history in this wonderfully reimagined home celebrating its 150th birthday this year. Once a United States Post Office serving the Fauquier and Culpepper rural area with a detached Post Master’s home within a few feet of the store. This is no “postage stamp” home. It is now a single large home encompassing both structures and creating an exceptional home. The blend of historic and modern architecture will impress you with great proportions and a creative floorplan. Hardwood floors are a feature throughout this home with high ceilings and main floor owner’s bedroom and bathroom. Adding several hundred square feet, this home underwent a nearly total overhaul about 20 years ago with strong design choices and large rooms. It will be easy to imagine gatherings with everyone at one table in the 37’X12’ dining room/sunroom. In the “Bibliotheca” you will see floor to ceiling library shelves for your book, glass sculpture, shell, or pottery collections and they will find a suitable home.
The country kitchen is in the center of the home as seems fitting. A hand made rolling island will make it easy to reconfigure as your favorite chef might desire.
Move up the stairs to the second level with two large bedrooms and two bathrooms (laundry is here too). Each of these bedrooms has a private dressing/sitting area. And there is an additional living room on this floor. Hardwood, wide plank floors are on this and every floor in the home.
The 3rd and top floor opens to studio, gaming room, bedroom, office, sunlight, views of the Waterloo Bridge, and views of the Rappahannock river. It is waiting for your definition and is so much more than “reclaimed attic” space.
There are hundreds of varieties of plants, bushes, and flowers in the landscape around the house for your year around enjoyment. Spring is promising to surprise and elate your senses.
If you like or love a Virginia riverside you will be elated to stroll over to your own riverside property with 700’ of river front. It is studded with Virginia native hardwoods and spring ephemerals.
The home also has two artists’ studios or workshops in the back yard. Lighting and electrical outlets are installed for the small studio and ½ of the larger shop. Wiring work is not completed for the “wood shop” side. The larger shop features two gardener’s closets that open into the yard…very clever use of outside space.
