130 yrs ago, this impressive brick townhouse was built facing fashionable Chimborazo Park, now Richmond National Battlefield Park and site of a Civil War medical museum. Only the sunsets rival its history. Now a grand, 2 BR house with 2.5 baths and a (legal!) 1 BR, 1 bath apt, the house was originally 4-5 BRs—and could be that again. Potential abounds in the 1,697 sf bmnt with its 10 ft ceiling & interior as well as exterior access. Enter the sumptuously detailed, full-length front porch of this house and you’ll find most original historic detail intact: soaring 11 ft ceilings, burnished hardwood floors, fireplaces, tracery windows, and paneling. The double front parlors have been combined into a sweepingly proportioned room with park view. Down the paneled hall with stained glass are dining room, powder room and sunny kitchen with granite and stainless. Recalling bygone days—a cold room! Upstairs are 2 BRs –ahhh, the park view —and 2 full baths. To the rear of the 2nd flr is a charming apt. Fenced rear yard with coveted brick garage. This architecturally distinguished block is near the city’s best restaurants & bakeries. Minutes from VCU, airport.
