Property Description
The William J. Shotwell House: A Historic Gem in the Heart of Culpeper. "Old Red" is a beautifully restored 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom home, blending historic charm with modern comfort. This 3,736-square-foot residence, built between 1870 and 1880, sits just a short stroll from Culpeper?s vibrant downtown, known for its quaint shops, restaurants, and breweries. The house retains its classic architectural features, including two of the three original bays on its welcoming front porch, detailed with turned posts, brackets, and frieze work, while the corbelled brick chimney cap and elegant box cornice brackets reflect its historical craftsmanship. A portion of the porch has been thoughtfully enclosed, creating a unique space for flexible use. A standout feature of the home is the separate entrance to the south projection, a nod to its history as the family flower shop. Step inside to experience the perfect balance of period charm and modern updates, including 1GB Verizon FiOS Wi-Fi. With spacious living areas, a peaceful country porch, and a large upper-level deck, this home offers the ideal retreat for those seeking the beauty of Virginia's wine country and the rich history of Culpeper.
