Property Description

Stunning Fan District home designed by architect Marcellus E Wright Sr, creator of Richmond's Altria Theater. This home seamlessly blends historic architectural charm with modern comfort, including a full basement apartment with private entrance, offering a rare combination of history, beauty & versatility. Original fireplaces, intricate moldings, tall ceilings & warm hardwood floors highlight the home's historic character, while thoughtful updates & a spacious floorplan create an ideal flow for entertaining & everyday living. A gated front garden, featuring an iron gate echoing the front door & window transoms, leads to a covered front porch & welcoming foyer with beautiful staircase. From there enjoy a bright airy living room with fireplace, a large dining room with a 2nd fireplace & built-in china cabinets & a cozy family room with a 3rd fireplace. The stunning newly renovated kitchen features GE Café appliances, quartz countertops, eat-in area, & access to the back patio & garage. Tall windows through these rooms flood the home with natural light. The 2nd level offers another family room with fireplace & wet bar, an office, a large primary bedroom with fireplace, 2 closets, & ensuite bath, plus two more spacious bedrooms with fireplaces & a hall bath. On the 3rd floor, find 2 more bedrooms, including a 2nd primary with ensuite bath, & access to a rooftop deck perfect for sunset cocktails. The basement apartment includes a private entrance, foyer, family room, 2 bedrooms, kitchenette, full bath & separate laundry, ideal for guests, rental income, or multigenerational living. Outdoor spaces are equally inviting- a covered back porch, brick patio perfect for dining & relaxation & a rare city luxury: a garage.
