It is the quintessential Fan lifestyle home. Featured in "Richmond's Fan District" by Drew St. J. Carneal, (c. 1986), this home exemplifies the Fan and the Fan lifestyle. Porch culture extraordiare. Directly across the street from the iconic Warsaw condominiums this home offers a timeless Italianate architectural style combined with modern amenities. A 3 Ton, 15 SEER American Standard heat pump was installed in January 2019 and has five years left on a transferable warranty. The first floor is flooded with natural light from the south-facing floor-to-ceiling windows and the light bounces off the hardwood floors to illuminate timeless and classic architectural details. Perfect for entertaining the large rooms are served by a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances. In the rear yard, there is a grilling deck on the side of the home and a beautifully curated pot garden that is a private oasis in the heart of the city. Even the rear pedestrian alley has been lovingly cared for and it shows! Professional interior photos to be added on July 24th.
The front porch should be counted as a room as it is one of the most important areas of the home. You'll be inclined to have a glass of wine and say hi to the neighbors walking by. Don't be surprised if they stop and become your new best friends - the Fan is like that. Bonus: Be sure to explore the upstairs reading porch off of the sitting room and you'll want to also explore the grilling deck on the side of the home. There's plenty of parking right on the street b/c the entire block, across the street, is the Warsaw and they park on the grounds.
Upstairs are three very large bedrooms, plenty of closet space and one of the bedrooms is/would be a great hang-out space and it also has a private balcony.
The home is very competitively priced with comparably sized homes selling well over $700,000. The seller has bought another home just a couple of blocks away and is a real fan of The Fan, this block, and the community.
