The land that became 206 N Royal was one of the original lots laid out by a young George Washington in 1749. In 1831 James English purchased the land and later built 206 as the first home on what is now known as the 200 block of N Royal. After expanding the original 1840âs home around 1870, he went on to build the two smaller homes on the left with matching frontage. A full history book of the home was done in 1992 dating back to 1669 and is waiting for its new owner to read and enjoy. For anyone with interest in Old Town & its history this is a stunning example of both a Beautiful Home and a Significant Historical Property.
