The perfect blend of classic Fan architecture and functional modern living on arguably the most charming street in the Fan, West Avenue. This lovingly maintained historic home gives you all the character you love in the Fan, but with the layout and updates that make daily life feel easy. Soaring 10-foot ceilings, gorgeous original millwork, oversized living spaces, and windows right where you need them for tons of natural light. West Ave is super unique too. This is the only street in the Fan with it's own neighborhood association and super fun block parties throughout the year. If you are looking for community, this is the little pocket for you! One of Richmond’s best-kept secrets honestly, and something you probably wouldn’t even know existed unless you’d spent years in the city. You're thinking... wow that's close to VCU. Yes it is! But drive down here and see for yourself. Walking distance to every good restaurant in the Fan and the new Allianz amphitheater! The front living room has rich original wood paneling, detailed craftsmanship, and a gas fireplace. The dining room flows openly into the hall and entertaining spaces, creating a cozy but connected feeling. Toward the back of the home, the layout opens up into a huge comfortable family room and an eat-in kitchen. Gas cooking, granite countertops, center island, wet bar, wine refrigerator, tons of prep space… this kitchen was made for dinner parties, holidays, and slow Sunday mornings. Step outside to the Trex deck overlooking a private garden space that also functions as off-street parking with a roll door enough space for two cars. Note, the city allows 5 parking passes for Fan residents and 2 guest passes. Upstairs you’ll find four spacious light-filled bedrooms, including two en-suite bedrooms, three very large full bathrooms, a dedicated laundry room, and an impressive amount of closet space for a historic Fan home. Every inch of this house feels thoughtfully improved while still preserving the original charm.
