About this House
Located within walking distance to historic downtown in the city of Charlottesville and situated on a .68 acre double private lot that runs from Locust Avenue to St Charles Avenue this home exudes character. Built in 1925 and renovated, the redesign created rooms that flow from one into the other. A large kitchen with custom cabinetry opens into a dining area and great room/sunroom with floor to ceiling windows. A cozy family room with wood burning stove is located off the kitchen as well as the primary suite, 2 additional bedrooms, office and laundry. The home offers one level living plus a terrace level living space with fully equipped kitchen that could be used as guest quarters, recreation room or private office suite. Extensive trim detail was added as well as custom built-in cabinetry in the primary bedroom and bath. Best of all is a recently added heated salt water pool with automatic pool cover allowing for use 7 months during the year. It was installed with energy efficient equipment for low costs to operate and is surrounded by extensive hardscape and professional landscaping. Near the pool is a newly finished hang out room with full bath plus an outdoor shower. Feel like you are on vacation every day!
