"""'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free"" Thomas Jefferson was president when this simple one-bedroom cottage was built in what is today the Old Towne section of Petersburg. A rare survivor from that long-ago time, the house has been thoughtfully updated while retaining much of its original fabric. Glowing heart pine floors, exposed beams and stippled plaster give it character while a modern kitchen and bath, plus a heat pump, give it livability. Even the fanciful Wee Man's tavern in the basement with its slate floor and tiny window has a practical side: a B-Dry waterproofing system and a dehumidifier. In the back is a charming, fenced garden with a brick terrace and beyond parking for three cars. The property is only blocks from river hiking trails, popular cafes and bakers, and the shops of Old Towne. Minutes from the interstates, Fort Lee, VSU, and Amtrak. Thirty mins from downtown Richmond. For turnkey ease, the house is offered fully furnished."
