Property Description
Charming Historic Home in Richmond's Fan District Welcome to this beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated detached historic home in the heart of the Fan District. Boasting five bedrooms, two full baths, and two half baths, this spacious residence blends timeless character with modern comfort. Step onto the inviting front porch, perfect for relaxing or entertaining, with ample seating space. Inside, the freshly painted interior features updated flooring throughout-hardwood floors preserved under new carpet-complementing the home's classic charm. The first floor offers a gracious layout with a living room featuring custom built-ins, a formal dining room with additional built-ins, a sun-filled eat-in kitchen, and a separate office-ideal for working from home. Upstairs on the second floor, you'll find four spacious bedrooms and a Florida room bathed in natural light, overlooking the tranquil backyard. The third floor provides a versatile fifth bedroom or recreation room along with a convenient half bath. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a large deck and expansive stone patio, surrounded by privacy trees and fencing-perfect for outdoor dining, lounging, or gathering around a firepit. At the rear of the property, enjoy paved parking for three cars, accessible via a garage door that opens to a newly paved alley. This home is a rare find in one of Richmond's most desirable and walkable neighborhoods-just steps from cafes, parks, and all the vibrant culture the Fan has to offer.
