tep
back into Victorian Fredericksburg when you visit The Schooler House.
The original home, built in 1891, contains a parlor, dining room, powder
room, and 2 bedrooms. The home was enlarged in 1900 to add a kitchen
and back bedroom and bathroom.
The
Schooler House retains its original heart pine floors in the original rooms
of the house. Replaced flooring was done in re-milled 100+-year-old
heart pine. There are 4 fireplaces in The Schooler House, all restored
with antique tiles. Two fireplaces are located in the common areas
of The Schooler House. Most of the trim throughout The Schooler House
is original to the home.
Guests
at The Schooler House have the opportunity to enjoy the Victorian parlor
for relaxing, reading, or planning the events of the day. The large
front porch, furnished with antique wicker furniture, provides a perfect
view of the Rising Sun Tavern, where you’ll see the wenches greeting tourists
and the trolley passes by on its way through the city.
A continental
breakfast is served in the dining room, which is furnished in period furniture.
Breakfast is served on antique Moss Rose Ironstone that is used and displayed
throughout The Schooler House.
The
backyard garden is an inviting oasis, with beautiful plantings and fishpond
with waterfall. Guests are welcome to take breakfast in the yard
or simply relax and enjoy the continually blooming plants.
