You decide where you choose to live, the neighborhood that becomes your community, the place to hang your hat. Location is more than a zip code or a spot on the map when you decide to call it home. The City of Fredericksburg is one of the most desirable places to live in our region, not because of its closeness to Richmond & DC or because of the walking lifestyle the city allows, not because of its history or its beautiful architecture. Fredericksburg is so loved because despite its growth & its modernization it has retained that small-town spirit, now usually reserved only for old movies. It is a place where your neighbors know your name & kindness is just part of the culture. Here community is not a descriptive word for where you live but something that describes who you are and where you belong.1107 Kenmore bridges the gap between tranquil retreat and convenient location.
