About the Listing KWR18 - 92888,3334446
Just beyond Leesburg’s lively King Street, you’ll find a historic home with a garden spirit; where porches invite, perennials bloom, and everyday life feels like a retreat. Set on a quiet residential street, this timeless treasure sits just a block from downtown’s boutiques and restaurants, and nearly next door to the ever-charming Ida Lee Park. Stroll to First Friday festivities filled with music, art, and dining, or wander home to your private oasis, where lush landscaping, a storybook shed, and a broad composite deck promise peace and enchantment in equal measure. The exterior of this home feels like a page from a garden storybook. The .17-acre lot bursts with stunning landscaping that unfolds like an English garden, thoughtfully planted so that from February through September new blossoms appear in colorful succession. It’s truly breathtaking, and the original landscape design plans will convey to the next owner; a treasure for anyone who delights in nature’s artistry. Beyond the flowers, raised vegetable gardens invite yard-to-table meals, while a graceful fence and arbor frame the space with charm. An underground irrigation system keeps everything thriving with ease. The backyard is anchored by a spacious deck and paver patio, perfect for entertaining or simply soaking in the view of your private sanctuary. Just beyond, a large shed with metal roofing and full electricity feels almost like a whimsical cottage, ready to serve as a workshop, studio, or secret hideaway. Together, these spaces create an outdoor retreat as practical as it is enchanting. Inside, over 2,000 finished square feet wrap you in warmth and character. Original hardwood floors, two working fireplaces, and both front and rear staircases whisper stories of the past, while modern updates make life easy. The kitchen, fully renovated and gleaming with crisp white cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless appliances, makes staying in as delightful as dining out. It opens to a sunny dining nook, a cozy spot for morning coffee overlooking the yard. A formal dining room, anchored by its own fireplace and the original rear staircase, serves as a warm gathering space. The living room, with its second fireplace, connects seamlessly; a welcoming space for conversation, comfort and togetherness. The main-level primary suite, renovated in 2018, is a retreat all its own with a private porch entrance. Its spa-like bath features river rock tile, updated fixtures, and modern finishes throughout. A separate laundry room with a newer pedestal washer and dryer completes the main level. Upstairs, two generous bedrooms with plenty of closet space and breezy ceiling fans offer restful retreats. A full bath and an airy landing add both function and charm. Behind the beauty, this home is just as sound. Dual-zone HVAC, a newer hot water heater, public utilities, and high-speed internet ensure modern convenience. This home is more than walls and windows; it’s a charming slice of life in Historic Downtown Leesburg. Here, small-town character blends with endless activities to create a lifestyle that feels both lively and peaceful, timeless yet refreshed, and every bit as magical as it is real.
