Heading to Wine Country Doesn’t Have to Mean Booking a Flight With These Fredericksburg Homes

Forget Napa Valley. Save the money you’d spend on plane tickets and head to Fredericksburg — a close-to-home option for wine lovers with dozens of vineyards, tasting rooms, and a charming German influence at every turn.

Over on SecondShelters.com, our Splurge vs. Steal of the week focuses on two lovely properties: One is outside of town with more square footage and style for a higher price tag. The other is more of a farmhouse-chic vibe in a great central location with a few questionable design choices.

Which one suits your fancy? Take your pick now.
