Located just over 6 miles from downtown Fredericksburg, my place is just a short drive to restaurants and dining, nightlife, and family-friendly activities. You’ll love my place because of the peaceful country location, the relaxing porch, beautiful interior, and the comforting ambiance. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, a group of friends, and families. The space Enjoyment and relaxation await you when you arrive at Oma Ella’s. This two bedroom home is located on 168 acres just south of town. The original house was built in the late 1800s and was a two story rock house with outside stairs accessing the second story. It was made of a “rubble stone” (there is a partial of the exposed rock found behind glass in the hallway). In 1940 your hostess’ parents Leo and Ella Hartman bought the house and removed the second story. While they were redoing the house they lived in the smokehouse still found in the back yard. The original front porch is now an enclosed porch and the windows were ordered from Sears & Roebuck. Your hostess remembers many wonderful memories of this great farmhouse, barn, creek and farmland. Entering through the front door leads you into the living/dining room. The living area has a sofa and two comfy armchairs all facing the 40” flat screen television and the electric log fireplace. A dining table comfortably seats four people. The kitchen is on the back side of the house and is fully equipped. A large island is in the center of the kitchen. There is an electric stovetop/range, large refrigerator, coffeemaker, dishwasher, microwave and toaster. There are two bedrooms both with queen beds and both are handsomely topped with tasteful comforters and pillows. There is a bedroom with tub/shower in between the two bedrooms. The back bedroom is spacious and has a collection of antique men and women’s hats. Both bedrooms have 32” flat screen televisions. There is also an entrance onto the enclosed porch. The porch is a wonderful place to relax with it’s comfy table and chairs. There are photos of your hostess’ parents when they were in the process of restoring the house. Very interesting and fun!! There is so much to do in this beautiful countryside. Walk down the road to the Meusebach Creek or just enjoy the countryside. Although the barns are working barns and not for guests you will enjoy looking at their mystique and perhaps see cows in the pens. Besides all of that you will enjoy an abundance of wildlife and birds. Guest access Entire home to yourself.
