900 FICKLEN ROAD

FREDERICKSBURG, VA 22405

“Highland Home”, the sister house to Belmont, was built in 1880 by the Ficklen Family for their daughter Ann Eliza “Nanny” Ficklen and her husband, Daniel Murray Lee (Nephew of Robert E. Lee) Married at St. George’s Church in 1874, the original owners are still Fredericksburg residents, buried in the Confederate Cemetery. Constructed of brick and cypress, “Highland Home” is one of the few examples of Second Empire Victorian design still standing. From the hardwood floors, to the handrails, balustrades to the tread brackets, much of the home is still original to its 1880 construction. Electrical, plumbing, and heat have all been modernized. Originally 8 bedrooms on 500 acres, the home was remodeled after WWII to provide housing for Marines coming home from war, and now sits on just under 3.5 acres. The property now features 9 apartments, each with their own kitchen and bathroom. As such, Highland Home would be ideal for a savvy investor looking to own a historically rich Bed & Breakfast, Venue, or Multi-Family property. While in need of considerable renovations, the owners are offering the property at a fraction of the home's value once it's restored. Claim your place in history. Step into the legacy. Embrace the gentility. Please DO NOT visit the property without an appointment. List agent will need to be present
