541 W Water St

541 West Water Street — Where Downtown Energy Meets Shenandoah Calm

Welcome to 541 West Water St., a quietly charismatic Harrisonburg hideaway tucked just steps from the heartbeat of downtown and directly across the street from Westover Park and...
Pool and the Cecil F. Gilkerson Recreational Center. This isn’t just a home—it's a front-row seat to the best of the Friendly City.

From the moment you arrive, the charm is unmistakable. A classic façade with modern touches invites you inside, where sunlight pours through generously sized windows and dances across original hardwood floors. The home carries that rare balance of historic character and fresh, updated comfort—never competing, always complementing.

Step through the front door into an airy living space designed for both cozy evenings and lively gatherings. The open layout flows into a thoughtfully updated kitchen and contemporary fixtures and just the right amount of rustic flair to honor Harrisonburg’s creative spirit.

A flexible dining nook overlooks a surprisingly private backyard—perfect for morning coffee, weekend gardening, or late-night stargazing.

The stand alone single family home also offers a beautifully paved off-street driveway and bonus storage shed.

All on one level, this unit offers bright, peaceful bedrooms with charming architectural details and deep, restful quiet despite being in the heart of the city. The updated bath blends timeless tile work with modern amenities, giving you a boutique-hotel feel right at home.

Living at 541 West Water St. means living in rhythm with Harrisonburg:

A short stroll to Court Square restaurants, cafés, and music venues

Moments from JMU and local greenways
