510 S Cameron St, Winchester, VA 22601

Description

Step into a piece of Winchester history, thoughtfully restored and completely renovated in 2025 while preserving the character and craftsmanship that make this historic home so special.

Originally built in 1865, this downtown Winchester property has been extensively updated from top to bottom, blending modern comfort with carefully preserved historic details. The kitchen was returned to its original central location within the home, where restored handmade cabinets were thoughtfully combined with new cabinetry and African Mahogany open shelving. The ceiling was raised and a dormer added to bring in additional natural light, while original brick was exposed on two walls. Reclaimed original wood was given new life throughout the space, creating beautiful beams, trim, and a distinctive vent hood. A dedicated coffee area with bar sink adds both function and charm.

The main living spaces were opened up by removing the wall between the entry hall and living room, while the doorway to the restored kitchen was widened to create an inviting, connected floor plan. The fireplace was enhanced with gas logs, and even a trap door adds an unexpected touch of history and character. Original hard pine floors in the living room and kitchen were carefully restored, preserving the warmth and authenticity of the home. A new Dutch door welcomes you at the front entrance.

The 2025 renovation also brought extensive structural and mechanical improvements, including a new metal roof, new gas furnace, new air conditioning system, upgraded 200-amp electrical service, and a repointed and reinforced brick foundation. A 22' x 16' addition expands the living space and features durable board-and-batten metal siding.

Outdoor living was thoughtfully designed as well, with a new 22' x 10' deck featuring wire railing. The space beneath the deck includes a concrete pad and has been waterproofed, creating additional usable outdoor living space. A separate 22' x 9'9" concrete pad has also been added and prepped for electrical, ready for a future hot tub.

From the original brick and restored floors to the reclaimed wood details and preserved architectural elements, small pieces of the home's history have been intentionally saved throughout. Every update was completed with an appreciation for what came before, resulting in a home that feels both historic and fresh.

With its downtown Winchester location, extensive 2025 renovation, and rare combination of historic craftsmanship and modern amenities, this is a home that truly offers the best of both worlds.
