Description
Nestled on one of the largest lots in Braddock Heights, this historic home, built in 1937, seamlessly blends classic charm with streamline modern design elements. Set on a vast .57-acre lot, the property offers privacy and tranquility and is surrounded by lush greenery.
As you step inside, you are greeted by one of the home’s standout features; its original circular staircase, which gracefully winds its way from the basement to the second level, a unique architectural detail that speaks to the craftsmanship...Nestled on one of the largest lots in Braddock Heights, this historic home, built in 1937, seamlessly blends classic charm with streamline modern design elements. Set on a vast .57-acre lot, the property offers privacy and tranquility and is surrounded by lush greenery.
As you step inside, you are greeted by one of the home’s standout features; its original circular staircase, which gracefully winds its way from the basement to the second level, a unique architectural detail that speaks to the craftsmanship of the era.
Beyond the entry foyer, the light and airy interior immediately impresses, with large Marvin windows throughout that flood the space with natural light. The heart of the home is the kitchen, a beautifully designed space that is both functional and inviting. Cherry floors complement the modern appliances, including the Thermador cooktop and double wall ovens, while a large stone-top island anchors the room. The kitchen also features a dine-in space and a cozy sitting space bathed in sunlight, perfect for morning coffee. Adjacent to this culinary haven is a large butler's pantry with additional cabinet and counter space and a vintage, iron and porcelain farmhouse sink with dual drainboards—a nod to the home's rich history.
The home's living spaces are equally captivating. A sunken living room, filled with light, opens onto one of three Virginia bluestone porches, creating an ideal setting for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining.
Throughout the home, you'll find oak, cherry, and heart pine floors that add warmth and character, and built-in shelving offering both storage and display space. The home’s layout is versatile and thoughtful, offering multiple options for living, dining, and office spaces. A versatile main-level in-law or guest bedroom with an adjacent bath offers flexibility and convenience.
Upstairs, four additional bedrooms provide plenty of space for family or guests, and the conveniently located laundry room makes everyday chores a breeze. The primary suite is a thoughtfully designed addition that features more luxurious light, built in shelving, and his-and-hers closets. Down the dual hallways is the primary bathroom complex, with a luxurious soaking tub, a separate shower, dual sinks, ample cabinetry, and separate commode room.
This home is the perfect blend of timeless elegance and modern living. Whether you're hosting a gathering on one of the bluestone decks or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings, this property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Braddock Heights history.
As always, buyers should independently verify all information, regardless of the source.
