This larger turn-key Historic Museum District home has the most delightful front porch to enjoy this quiet block that is steps from the VMFA and restaurants. Upon entering from the breezy covered porch, enjoy the unusually bright living room with coffered ceilings, the Adams mantle fireplace and 2 walls of expansive windows. The lovely stairway frames this gracious room that opens to the spacious dining room with large triple window. The renovated eat-in kitchen with great flow has gas cooking, stainless appliances, abundant cabinetry, a coffee bar or serving counter, room for a large breakfast table, and a back staircase to the 2nd floor. Off of the kitchen is a lovely private garden with brick patio, raised brick beds, privacy fencing and double gates out to a concrete private parking pad. Enjoy the delightful covered potters/garden shed to tend your beautiful city pocket garden. Up the lovely staircase to the 2nd floor, you have a bright and spacious primary bedroom with abundant windows, hardwood floors and a spacious closet. There is an updated full bath with claw foot tub and shower, as well as 2 additional bedrooms, one which would make a fantastic walk-in closet or additional 2nd floor bath. Up the pretty turned staircase to the 3rd floor, you have 2 large bedrooms with closets and an updated hall bath to share. The waterproofed and nicely finished lower level has a full bath, laundry and a large wonderful living space. This level has amazing built-in shelves, storage galore and a back entrance, which would make a great in-law suite. This home has been meticulously maintained and updated by the sellers. Top of the line systems include a Weil-McLain gas furnace for the hot water radiator heat, Trane AC Space Pac system for AC, and a 38 gallon gas hot water heater. The home has been completely rewired with 200 amp power and a new TPO roof was installed in 2023. The main tile roof was extensively refurbished in 2023. Don't miss this special home on this lovely block which enjoys amazing community.
