Overview

Set high on 3.6 acres across from the James River Park System, this beautifully renovated Baskerville & Lambert–designed Tudor, circa 1928, offers a beautiful blend of historic character & thoughtful modern updates. A newly-paved drive lined w/river stone leads to the home’s striking facade, where timeless architecture is framed by established grounds. You are greeted w/a unique arched front door & beautiful stacked brickwork. Inside, a gracious foyer welcomes you w/high ceilings & a natural flow complete w/original heart pine floors. The living room is spacious & complimented by a gas FP w/original mantle & filled w/natural light. The inviting sunroom boasts brick floors, arched architectural details, gas FP & 3 sets of French doors that access the property on 3 sides. An additional den provides a more relaxed living space. The kitchen is both functional & updated: open to the dining space beneath unique turreted skylights, creating a bright, airy setting for everyday living & entertaining. A convenient first-floor laundry room w/ample storage adds to the home’s livability. Upstairs, 3 well-proportioned bedrooms share a full hall bath, while the primary suite offers a true retreat w/a large walk-in closet & a beautifully updated bathroom featuring a classic clawfoot tub, double vanity & custom glass-enclosed shower. Just beyond, a light-filled sitting room provides a private escape—perfect for slow mornings or quiet evenings. The third level includes a bedroom & full bath offering flexibility for guests or an au pair suite. The grounds are truly exceptional. Manicured gardens, brick walkways, & mature landscaping create a setting that feels both private & transportive. An outdoor kitchen & entertaining area overlook the pool & gas firepit, offering a natural extension of the home’s living space & an ideal backdrop for gathering. A two-car garage & additional storage shed complete the package. A rare offering, this is a truly remarkable property defined by its setting, character, and livability.
