About This Home

558 Gay St

The Dudley House is one of the most charming houses in the charming town of Washington, VA. Built in 1890, the Dudley house has retained all of its period charm while undergoing a top-to-bottom renovation in 2025 that fully preserved the house's historic interior and exterior details while providing all the modern comforts. Expansive front and rear porches frame town and country views, while sweeping lawns and meadows with weaving paths create a private setting that makes it easy to forget that you're in the middle of a small town. The entire property comprises nine acres of lovely lawns, meadows, woodlands, streams, and a pond, which is currently divided into a 3/4-acre house lot and 4 buildable tax parcels. One can keep the entire property as a private retreat or easily sell off the individual lots without compromising the privacy of the house. The house lot is also being offered separately at a price of $1,450,000. RESIDENCE--The four bedroom, three full bath home was completely renovated in 2025 with period details intact and modern luxury finishes added where it counts most--kitchen, baths and a second-floor laundry. Renovations include all new electric wiring and plumbing, two-zoned high efficiency heat pumps and electric hot water heater. Historical millwork, refinished floors and new paint and plaster work create a seamless melding of history and modern conveniences.  A new standing-seam metal roof, new Marvin windows and doors and authentic "Dutch Lap" wood siding update the exterior to the same standard. With stunning mountain views and comfortable flow for family living or just weekend visits, this house is completely turn-key and awaiting your personal touches. GROUNDS--The Dudley House sits on a generous ¾-acre lot, with a large, tree-bordered lawn and mountain views. The garden is professionally landscaped using local native plants and stonework.  A mature boxwood “grotto” and fanciful wrought iron gazebo are focal points. The remaining eight acres are subdivided into four buildable two-acre lots with pastoral views and an unbuilt access road right-of-way. This additional acreage affords the homeowner flexibility to sell off individual lots or build a miniature in-town estate! Each lot has wooded borders that create a series of secluded meadows. Two lots have small storage barn/sheds. The list price includes a road bond escrow account of $108,150 to cover the cost of road building to access the subdivision. OTHER--Telecom:  Internet and TV options are available via comcast cable or satellite with Starlink.  Cell service is available with T-Mobile and AT&T.  Limited service is also available from Verizon. Location:  The Dudley House is located on Gay Street in the town of Washington, VA.  The property is 25 miles from Rt. 66 (Marshall exit 27) or 20 miles (Front Royal exit).  Approximately 87 miles from Washington, DC.  Travel time to downtown DC is 1 Hour 30 minutes (in low traffic situations).  Approximately 1 hour 20 minutes to Dulles International Airport.  1 hour 10 minutes to Charlottesville.  20 minutes to Warrenton, 15 minutes to Front Royal. Amenities: “Little” Washington, the county seat of Rappahannock County is the home of The Inn at Little Washington, Foster-Harris House, R.H.
