Description

An opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Fredericksburg history in one of the most unique buildings in the city. Located within the iconic Maury Commons building, this exceptional 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo residence occupies the former James Monroe High School library, offering an unmatched blend of historic charm, character, architectural significance, and modern luxury.Originally constructed as James Monroe High School in 1937, Maury Commons was thoughtfully transformed into luxury condominiums while preserving many of its original details. This rare unit showcases soaring 14-foot ceilings, expansive walls of windows in every room, and beautifully preserved original hardwood floors, creating a dramatic and inviting living space unlike anything else on the market.Positioned directly behind the 50-yard line, the home overlooks the school’s original football field, which remains in use today. Enjoy a truly unique perspective with front-row views of games and events from your living room, bedrooms all while taking in sweeping views of downtown Fredericksburg.The kitchen, spacious walk-in closets, and in-unit washer and dryer provide modern convenience without sacrificing the building’s historic charm. Residents enjoy secure 24-hour keyless entry, assigned parking, basement storage, a fitness area, a study, two community grilling stations, a landscaped courtyard, and a rooftop terrace with panoramic views of the city.Ideally located within walking distance of the VRE, downtown shopping, restaurants, parks, and entertainment, this is far more than a condominium—it’s an opportunity to own a piece of Fredericksburg’s history. Homes with this level of character, provenance, and architectural significance rarely become available, making this a truly exceptional offering in the heart of downtown Fredericksburg.
