A rare opportunity to own a truly unique Tudor Revival, inspired by Anne Hathaway’s Cottage and brimming with potential for your next visionary venture. This storybook property, designed and built in 2008, offers charm, character, and commercial opportunity (zoned B-1 Local Business) on 1.1 beautifully landscaped acres featuring a pond, gardens, and room to grow. Whether expanding the possibilities of added cottages on the property or into the 1440 unfinished (10 ft ceiling) basement square footage (part of the 3,648 available sq ft) , there's so much more you can do. Whether you’re a chef dreaming of private dinner experiences, a micro-wedding planner seeking an enchanting venue, or an artist looking for a live-in studio surrounded by inspiration, this property is a canvas for your creativity. With three bedrooms, including a main-level suite, and ample indoor and outdoor spaces, the Cottage is perfectly suited for a boutique Airbnb or bed-and-breakfast. This property actually previously operated as a thriving Bed & Breakfast from 2009-2014, and then as an English Tea Room from 2016-2019. Host unforgettable events in the large banquet room, extend gatherings outdoors under a tent between the patio and garden, or convert the lush grounds into a whimsical retreat. The front deck is ideal for al fresco dining, and there’s parking for up to 14 vehicles plus street availability. In addition, there is potential space to build 2-3 guest cottages, or subdivide approximately 1/3 of an acre for a second home or duplex apartments (buyer due diligence). Located just minutes from downtown Staunton’s shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions, this property offers an unparalleled blend of lifestyle and business potential. A dream space for those ready to turn passion into reality. Seller willing to consider Owner-Seller Financing.
