PRICE REDUCED! Take a step back into history...Just know that it is a BIG step...all the way back to 1785 in fact. The stunning Gill Hay House is not just a piece of Petersburg's history, but Virginia and US history! This Federal style home is unique in character, space, and condition. With over 3,400 square feet this home features 4 generous bedrooms and 3 full baths and is situated on over a half acre lot. Of the many well known features of this home is the grand staircase that greets visitors upon entering the home.

The elegant dining room and formal Parlor/Living Room flank the Entry Hall. Upstairs are four bedrooms and 2 full baths, including a remodeled Primary bath and updated hall bath.

The home has recently been painted completely inside and out, original oak flooring has been refinished and preserved, as have the many details of its 1785 craftsmanship, including the wood burning and coal fireplaces. New HVAC was installed in 2022.
