Description

The soaring proportions and period details are impressive, but so is the flexibility of this grand antebellum house. A rare find, the house has a stand-alone unit with rental potential in the English basement and an attached two-story guest suite --both with separate entrances. FOUR BEDROOMS, 4.5 BATHS, 2 KITCHENS, ATTACHED 2-CAR GARAGE, and an ELEVATOR set this property apart. Built in 1832 with two stories over a full English basement, its original dependency is now connected to the main house...The soaring proportions and period details are impressive, but so is the flexibility of this grand antebellum house. A rare find, the house has a stand-alone unit with rental potential in the English basement and an attached two-story guest suite --both with separate entrances. FOUR BEDROOMS, 4.5 BATHS, 2 KITCHENS, ATTACHED 2-CAR GARAGE, and an ELEVATOR set this property apart. Built in 1832 with two stories over a full English basement, its original dependency is now connected to the main house creating the guest suite—with balcony-- at the rear of the house. The main floor has a living room, dining room, eat-in kitchen with a deck overlooking the garden, as well as access to the rear suite. The second floor has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. A formal, walled garden lined with boxwoods and brick paths is accented with an imposing iron gate. Two new gas furnaces and AC systems. Well-maintained by a one family for 42 years, this cherished landmark is ready to be reimagined for its upcoming bicentennial. Public and private school options include St. Joseph's School and the Appomattox Regional Governor's School, both nearby, and the Maggie Walker Governor's School in Richmond.
