188 MAIN STREET Ideally sited in the heart of the Warrenton Historic District, this extraordinary historic residence (circa 1840) is a masterpiece of Old Town significance. Originally identified as the “William H. Jennings Home” by the Architectural Review Board, “Hearthstone” is a beautiful example of the Greek Revival style of architecture of this era. This stunning three level brick home presides over a .46 acre parcel, amidst towering trees, spectacular perennial gardens and lovely stone walkways. The landscaping is designed to create a story book setting of a formal English garden, with flagstone terraces, bordered by stone walls and multiple water features of small ponds and fountains. The main residence encompasses approximately 5000 square feet of gracious living space featuring many of the stunning architectural details of the period. High ceilings, sun-filled rooms, random width pine floors (many original), and crown moldings, all contribute to the charm and beauty of this space. Meticulously restored and updated with careful attention to preserving its historical integrity, all the modern amenities of today are seamlessly incorporated into the renovation. The formal Parlor boasts crown moldings, huge pocket doors to separate it from the adjacent rooms, a fireplace and wood floors. Oversized windows bathe the rooms in natural sunlight. The formal Dining Room is elegant and sophisticated, highlighted by a brilliant crystal chandelier, a fireplace and glass paned side door entry. The Gourmet country Kitchen is a chef’s delight, with a 6 burner (Wolf) stove with custom tile back splash, a Sub Zero refrigerator/freezer, soap stone countertops and a walk in pantry. The charming Family room was completed in 2015 with the finest quality and craftsmanship. There is a stunning tin and trey ceiling, in keeping with the colonial era and adding to the warmth and beauty of the rooms. The second level includes three spacious Bedrooms and two updated full Baths. The Primary Bedroom enjoys custom bookcases, a fireplace and the adjacent bath. Carefully preserved wood floors grace most all of the rooms in the home. The lower level is a studio apartment with a convenient kitchen and full bath, making it ideal for guests or an au pair. Adjacent is a lovely one bedroom Guest House, totally renovated and very private. It has often provided income, but can also serve as a private office, studio or in- law residence. “Hearthstone” offers the rare opportunity to own an absolutely charming period residence of grace and historic beauty, with privacy and seclusion in an idyllic setting.
