Property Description

Opportunity abounds in this historic 1870 home located on one of the most desirable blocks in the St. John’s Church Historic District. Full of original character, the home features exposed brick, original beams, and architectural details worth preserving—offering a rare opportunity to restore while maintaining its historic integrity. The main level offers a living room and kitchen, with large glass French doors opening to the backyard—bringing in natural light and creating an easy connection to outdoor space. Upstairs, you’ll find a bedroom and full bath. The walk-out English basement provides a large, flexible living area with a kitchenette, full bath, laundry, and additional storage, along with its own private entrance—ideal for guests or extended stays. The home was last updated decades ago, with finishes that are functional but ready for modernization. Importantly, the current owner has already invested significantly in the structure, including stabilization work and extensive brick repointing—addressing the items that matter most in a home of this age. The roof has also been recently recoated. Set on a rare oversized lot, the property offers a large backyard with plenty of room to expand or create a true outdoor retreat, along with the added benefit of off-street parking. Located just blocks from Libby Hill Park, neighborhood restaurants, and the Virginia Capital Trail, this is a chance to restore and personalize a historic home in one of Richmond’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
