The Fannie Roots House, located in Fredericksburg, VA, is a historic post-Civil War worker's cottage that has been meticulously restored to preserve its original charm and significance. Originally owned by the Roots family, the house offers a glimpse into the life of Fannie Roots, a prominent civil rights activist and lifelong resident of Stafford County.

Under the stewardship of the neighboring Belmont estate, the Fannie Roots House underwent structural restoration starting in 2008, ensuring that this rare example of a worker's cottage from the late 19th century continues to stand as a testament to the history and heritage of the region.
