With sweeping views across the James River valley, Byrd Park and the CSX A-Line bridge, this elegant brick & slate Colonial located in one of Richmond's most sought-after neighborhoods was designed by noted architect Clarence Huff & constructed in 1938. It features a dramatic center entrance hall & turned staircase, generously-sized living room w/ fireplace; formal dining room w/ crystal chandelier; sun room with french doors & built-in bookcases; kitchen with granite counters and walk-in pantry; a cozy breakfast room with built-in cabinetry; and a powder room off the back hall. Upstairs are four large bedrooms, two of which open to balconies overlooking the river, & two full baths. The lower level offers a teak-panelled rec room with ceramic tile floor & adjacent full bath. Beautiful wood floors & elegant millwork are found throughout the house. Outdoors, enjoy the screened porch & extensive brick rear terraces to the rear, & for the serious hobbyist the workshop at the rear of the property is ready for any project you dream to take on, or it could be yet another recreation space with a little upgrade. Bring your vision and imagine how you'll put your stamp on this prominent home!
