Welcome to the James Copeland House, located in the heart of Round Hill, Virginia. A truly remarkable piece of history - that boasts not only its architectural beauty but also a unique historical legacy with roots tracing back to the late 1880's. Once owned by Dr. James Copeland who later became a respected medical doctor and even made the groundbreaking discovery of the first case of smallpox in Loudoun County. The house holds memories of Maria Copeland, a dedicated Round Hill schoolteacher who resided here until her 80s. Her personal touch is evident in the living room, where she carved her name along with the date, 1896, when she was just 10 years old.It's more than just a house; it's a story waiting to be discovered. With 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths in the main house, alongside a unique "little house" that carries grandfathered commercial usage, this property is a canvas of possibilities. As you enter the kitchen, there is a brick, wood burning fireplace and a screened-in porch off the kitchen. The refinished original hardwood floors speak of character, while freshly painted, drywall and a comprehensive rewiring of both buildings ensure safety and style, featuring new breakers and stylish light fixtures. The kitchen shines with recessed lighting, and a contemporary touch emerges with a fresh coat of paint. Below, the cellar has been thoughtfully waterproofed with a drain tile perimeter, a reliable sump pump, and new windows that infuse it with natural light. Stay cozy throughout the seasons with the addition of new central heating last year. Plus, should you desire, air conditioning can be effortlessly incorporated, thanks to the existing ductwork. But that's not all. This property is a tale of two worlds. A separate building, with commercial zoning and a 900-square-foot footprint. A 2-car gravel driveway ensures convenience, and the fenced rear yard provides security, plus there is a hidden courtyard behind the fenced-in area. No HOA fees to contend with. The property's commercial space "The Little House", a former medical office during the horse and buggy era, and later a bank, now thrives as an enchanting antique shop, adding a layer of charm and character to this unique offering.
