The Thiele Haus: Beautiful Basse Block Home & Guest Haus

THE THIELE HAUS – Originally built in 1875 by the Thiele family, this beautiful Basse block home maintains its old world charm while boasting a unique and impressive blend of modern conveniences and historical style.  As you step onto the front porch, you can feel the history of bygone days including the porch pillar, which still bears the carved initials of the family.  Once inside, you are greeted by the original old pine floors and bead board ceilings leading you into the impressive and expansive great room. The great room is sure to impress, with towering vaulted ceilings and reclaimed exposed beams while providing a feeling of solitude. A gorgeous masonry fireplace acts as a focal point while the wall of windows let in natural light through the screened in back porch. This refined open space blends perfectly with the dining area and kitchen making a spacious open concept. The chef of the house will love the well thought out open kitchen, complete with double islands, a thermador gas range with 5 burners and griddle plus double ovens and cute farm house sink. No matter the occasion, you will love this bright open room offering a spot for everyone to gather. Whether it’s a gathering with friends and family or a quiet night, this room will make you feel right at home. The spa-like master suite provides vaulted ceilings and its own access to the screened in back porch along with an ensuite master bath with double vanities, a beautiful walk-in shower equipped with 2 shower heads and seating area, a soaker tub and large walk in closet with plenty of built-ins.  The two additional bedrooms are contained within the older part of the house at the front. The first bedroom downstairs includes original pine floors, its own full bathroom with a claw footed tub sitting amongst antique wood curved windows. Just across the hall is an adorable sitting room/den that can easily be converted into a 4th bedroom. Follow the old wooden stair case upstairs and you will find a a charming studio suite 3rd bedroom that opens and runs the length of the old home making space for 2 double beds, a separate small living area, another full bath and even its own stairwell to the outside.  Down the hallway adjacent to the kitchen you will find a huge pantry room plus separate utility room that offers tons of storage space and a quaint small home office just the right size for your daily work projects.  Just off the great room is a fantastic and spacious large screened in outdoor living area overlooking the outdoor rock patio and stone fireplace. A great place for enjoying a morning cup of coffee or dinner and a glass of wine in the fresh air. The outdoor rock patio comes complete with a elaborate stone fireplace along with a private area equipped with a private stone self-heated spa and fountain design, a perfect spot for relaxation and unwind.

GASTE HAUS – need a little extra room for over night guests or maybe just a mother in laws apartment? The guest house out back is more than just a room to sleep in, this guest house is decked out with a full kitchen, living area, laundry room, big bedroom and full bath. The only bad thing about this guest house is it might be hard to get your friends to leave! Plus, it has its own private entrance and is located above the huge carport and storage room completely separate from the main house.

OUTSIDE – the gated brick paver driveway leads you from Creek Street to your own private oasis. The huge 102 x 201 foot lot offers mature shade trees and beautiful landscaping all around the property. The side yard with the outdoor living area is awesome, but so is the large lush green backyard, great for the animals or kiddos to play. The carport easily holds 3+ cars. Meanwhile there is tons of storage in the workshop area connected to the carport, ideal for a workshop for woodworking or tinkering on cars, a great flex space for whatever your needs may be.  Hard to believe you can find all of this in one location, yet be just two blocks from MarketPlatz!  All of Fredericksburg is easily walkable which means a day of shopping or a night out to dinner is just a few steps away. All this makes the Thiele Haus a real one of a kind Fredericksburg property!
