About This Home
Welcome to Talbott’s Tavern. A history lover’s dream. This beautifully restored four-story townhome in the heart of the historic village of Waterford Virginia is a step back in time. Originally serving as one of the taverns in this unique village in Western Loudoun County, Talbott's Tavern, (built in 1797 and 1810) is a historic gem that combines two homes into one spacious and gracious living space.
Once a bustling tavern and rooming house, the property retains its original charm with features like historic log-beamed ceilings, thick stone walls, original moldings, and stone and hardwood floors. And while it retains the unique original interiors, it offers all of the modern conveniences required for today’s busy lifestyle. High-speed Comcast cable, new HVAC, new roof, and new stone-masonry are just a few of the amenities that make Talbott’s Tavern a perfect place for a full-time home / office, or a turnkey weekend retreat.
This four-story home offers generously sized, light-filled rooms with high ceilings.
The first floor welcomes you with a twin set of entryway doors that open into the original tavern spaces which feature a beamed ceiling, stunning stone floors and stone walls and a cozy fireplace surrounded by wood cabinetry.
On the second level, you’ll find a quaint library / breakfast room with a fireplace, an adjacent formal dining room and sun-splashed living room with high ceilings and large windows.
The custom kitchen is outfitted with cherry cabinets and modern amenities. This level extends to a lovely sunken-walled stone patio, perfect for al fresco entertaining. Above the patio walls lies the three-terrace yard featuring newly dry-stacked stone walls, boxwoods, an Asian Cherry Tree, a hidden Amish style garden shed, and cutting gardens with spring daffodils, lilies, poppies, irises, peonies, and more.
The third level includes a large, yet serene primary bedroom suite with a well-appointed bathroom including a double-sink vanity, a claw-footed soaking tub, and separate shower. Also on this level are two additional guest bedrooms that share a full bathroom with bathtub / shower, and a stacked washer & dryer..
?The fourth level boasts a king-sized bedroom and separate sitting room featuring a three-unit bay window offering sweeping views of the terraced gardens and stone patio below. This suite offers a fully self-contained space that includes a full bathroom that can serve as an in-law suite, a large office, or a private retreat for guests.
This home is a stunning example of historic Waterford architecture and careful restoration, nestled within the National Historic Landmark of Waterford, Virginia.
