Property Description

Step into the past and own a true landmark with The Vintage Magnolia House. Originally purchased in 1880 as a 3-bedroom shotgun home, this historic gem was expanded around 1920 and transformed in 1971 into the iconic Spottswood Restaurant. The current owner took on a meticulous two-year restoration beginning in September 2020, elevating this property to new heights. Key updates include the addition of a second story, foundation reinforcement, and comprehensive updates throughout, including all-new plumbing, electrical systems, HVAC, appliances, and fixtures. The property is fully equipped with a state-of-the-art security system, electronic locks, Sonos stereo integration, and expansive gardens with thoughtful landscaping, offering an immersive experience from every angle. Outdoor entertaining is a breeze with a stunning outdoor stage area, a charming carriage house opening to the backyard gardens, and a Tidewater 44' Round Sail Cloth tent with sides--ideal for hosting events in the open air. Inside, the home features 4 spacious bedrooms, each with adjoining baths, and an upstairs area complete with a wet bar and laundry. Every bedroom boasts a private enclosed porch area that's perfect for a reading nook or extra sleeping space. The ground floor offers incredible versatility with a fully-equipped hair salon, mani/pedi station, massage room, photography studio, office, and a commercial-grade kitchen, making this an ideal location for a home-based business or event space. Original elements of the home are retained with 3 historic fireplaces, while a working fireplace adds warmth and character to the great room. Antique chandeliers and banquet seating area further enhance the historic charm.This one-of-a-kind venue has hosted weddings, baby showers, political events, civic functions, and much more--demonstrating its incredible flexibility to accommodate any gathering. Photos and words simply can't capture the true essence of this historic treasure.
