About this home
A timeless gem nestled in the heart of Fredericksburg’s coveted College Heights neighborhood. Built in 1939, this character-rich home offers nearly 3,500 square feet of beautifully maintained living space, featuring a timeless slate roof and Aquia stone façade, with five spacious bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be drawn in by the charm of this historic, tree-lined community, just minutes from the University of Mary Washington and the walkable, colonial-style downtown district. Ideal for families or pet lovers, the home sits on a generous lot with a fully fenced backyard and an inviting sense of community all around.
Inside, original hardwood floors and an abundance of natural light highlight the classic beauty of the home, while thoughtful updates bring comfort and convenience. The first-floor primary suite features a cozy gas fireplace. It is ready to be transformed into a luxurious retreat, complete with a spacious walk-in closet and an expansive bathroom. The finished lower level features a legal bedroom and a private entrance—ideal for guests, in-laws, or potential rental use. Numerous upgrades provide peace of mind, including a freshly painted interior, newer HVAC systems (installed in 2018 and 2020), water heaters (installed in 2018 and 2020), a refrigerator (installed in 2023), kitchen (completed in 2025) and a major remodel and waterproofing of the basement (completed in 2023). Infrastructure improvements, such as the new sewer (2021) and water lines (2023), along with seasonal system tune-ups and a roof inspection (2025), make this home move-in ready.
Living here means more than just enjoying a beautiful home—it’s about embracing everything Fredericksburg has to offer. Downtown is a vibrant hub of culture and charm, featuring chef-owned restaurants, boutique shops, art galleries, and historic landmarks such as the Rising Sun Tavern and Hugh Mercer Apothecary. Caroline Street comes alive during First Fridays and local events, while the Rappahannock River offers paddleboarding, kayaking, and scenic walking trails just minutes away. Families will love weekend outings to A. Smith Bowman Distillery, Civil War battlefields, or local gardens and museums that capture the city’s rich history.
For commuters, Fredericksburg is perfectly positioned with the VRE and Amtrak station just minutes away, offering direct rail service to Union Station in under 90 minutes. Easy access to I-95 and nearby park-and-ride options make traveling to Washington, D.C. smooth and efficient. Whether you're a growing family, a remote worker seeking space and serenity, or a city commuter looking for small-town charm, 1500 Augustine Avenue delivers the best of all worlds. It’s not just a home—it’s a gateway to a lifestyle full of history, heart, and opportunity.
