It is the residential end of Downtown Fredericksburg: houses rather than shopfronts, north of the shops on Caroline and William Streets and toward the canal. The City's plan describes these streets as mostly small-lot houses at 4 to 20 homes an acre, and the north end of Princess Anne Street mixes houses with offices; the plan proposes maker-district zoning there. Here is what sits close by.

Mostly detached houses on small lots, with duplexes and rowhouses mixed in, as the City's plan describes these blocks. Virginia's survey of the historic district records frame houses built after 1865 along Prince Edward and Winchester Streets, and Amelia Square adds a newer community, with a 2015 build year in a current listing. 88 of the 348 homes fall inside the local historic district.
The City's public records don't list the year each house was built. Most homes built before 1978 come with a federal lead-paint disclosure at sale.
