Description

Step into a remarkable piece of Richmond’s past with this historic home, originally owned by Elizabeth L. Van Lew—an influential abolitionist, Union supporter, and Civil War spy. Completed by 1895, this three-bay brick residence is a contributing structure in the St. John’s Church Historic District.

Situated directly across from St. John’s Church—where Patrick Henry gave his legendary “Give me liberty, or give me death!” speech—this location offers front-row access to some of the city's most celebrated events. The Irish Festival begins right at the corner of the street, and the home is ideally located along the cherished Christmas Candlelight Tour route.

In the winter, enjoy views of the southern skyline from the fenced backyard, and take in stunning sunsets throughout the year.
Inside, the home offers a striking contrast to its historic exterior with a sleek, modern interior. Clean lines, an open layout, and a wall of windows bring in abundant natural light. The contemporary kitchen features a farmhouse sink, upscale finishes, and three southern-facing French doors that open to the private yard—perfect for entertaining or unwinding.

Upstairs, a skylight brightens the hallway leading to a spacious primary suite with generous windows and a large en suite bath. Two additional bedrooms and a hall bath—complete with a vintage clawfoot tub—complete the second level.
2417 E Grace St, Richmond, VA 23223 is a 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom, 2,278 sqft single-family home in Church Hill, built in 1895. It last sold for $899,000 on Aug 11, 2025 (2% below the $915,000 asking price). It is currently off market. The Trulia Estimate is $937,800, with a rent estimate of $2,804/month.
