    ***NEW PRICE***MOTIVATED SELLERS*** Historic Charm. Exceptional Opportunity. Untapped Potential. Welcome to a place where front porches invite conversation, neighbors know your name, and life moves at a more thoughtful pace. In the heart of Mineral, Virginia—at the gateway to Lake Anna—this 1899 Folk Victorian home offers a rare blend of historic character, small-town charm, and everyday livability. From the moment you arrive, the home’s distinctive gable-front façade, decorative finials, and two-story front porch set a warm and welcoming tone. Bow bay windows fill the interiors with natural light, while original hardwood floors, crown moldings, chair rails, rosette-trimmed doorways, and a classic wood stair banister reflect the craftsmanship of another era. Recent improvements include restored original black walnut millwork; kitchen updated with electrical wiring, with each outlet on its own breaker; newly installed Comfort Zone window AC units in each bedroom, featuring Wi-Fi-enabled systems; and freshly painted covered back deck with ceiling fan and electric service. With historic character throughout--the layout is both comfortable and flexible, featuring three spacious bedrooms and inviting living areas ready to be enjoyed as-is or thoughtfully updated over time. The kitchen—anchored by a sleek 3-bay stainless-steel sink—offers a functional starting point for creating a space that suits a flexible lifestyle. Out back, a covered porch overlooks a generous yard framed by mature trees—ideal for quiet mornings, weekend gatherings, gardening, or simply enjoying the seasons. With approximately 0.52 acres spanning three parcels—including two vacant lots with road frontage and ample parking for a boat/RV/jet ski, the property offers room to grow, create, or invest at your own pace. Set along Mineral Avenue (Route 522) at the corner of W 5th Street, and zoned Residential / Light Commercial, the distinctive property is not subject to historic preservation restrictions. It offers the freedom to modernize, allowing buyers to reimagine it for future possibilities and tailor the home to their lifestyle and vision. Life here is refreshingly simple and connected. Stroll to local shops, dining, the farmers market, and Walton Park. Spend weekends on the water at nearby Lake Anna. Enjoy community events, friendly neighbors, and the charm of a town rooted in history and shaped by its mining heritage. --Whether you’re seeking a full-time residence, a weekend retreat, or a property with long-term potential, this is a place where you can slow down, put down roots, and make it truly your own. Don’t miss out on this rare opportunity to own a piece of Mineral’s history. Schedule your private tour and experience it for yourself.
