127 Fairview St, Marion, VA 24354

A hidden gem in the heart of Marion: Step into a rare piece of Marion's history with this stunning 1914 brick home, originally serving as a boarding house, beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated. Offering 2,571 sq ft, this spacious residence includes 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, featuring a classic clawfoot tub and exceptional original woodwork that reflects craftsmanship rarely seen today. Timeless architectural details such as built-in dining cabinetry, quarter-sawn oak hearths, beautiful hardwood stair case, butler's pantry/breakfast nook, and countless other touches, add warmth and character throughout. But, what truly sets this property apart from other historic homes in the area is its extraordinary setting. Situated on a secluded 1.23-acre lot within the Marion town limits, the home feels like a private retreat hidden from the world. Surrounded by forest, the property offers remarkable solitude, natural beauty, and peaceful views with no sense of in-town congestion—yet downtown Marion is just 1/2-mile away. The expansive lot provides ample space for gardening, outdoor living, wildlife watching, or simply enjoying the quiet, a combination almost impossible to find in town. Modern comforts such as central heat and air conditioning blend seamlessly with historic appeal. Relax on the large, airy, covered front porch, take advantage of the partially fenced yard for pets, and enjoy the existing garden beds or chicken coop for a touch of country living. This is a rare opportunity to own a historic home that delivers privacy, space, and serenity—without sacrificing convenience.
