Property Description

This delightful 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath cottage in the heart of Charlottesville blends storybook charm with urban convenience. The large city lot boasts a level yard with various useable spaces, two covered porches, fire pit, large shed, and a picket fence enclosure. The ideal location is walkable to the University, McIntire Park, Main Street, the Downtown Mall and The Dairy Market, as well as the Rivanna trail system and the YMCA. The well-maintained interior features hardwood floors throughout and updated kitchen and bathrooms. A finished basement offers ample space for storage, a guest area, and a laundry room. Enjoy hosting in the spacious dining and living rooms, or relax outdoors under mature hardwoods and fruit trees that grace the well-landscaped yard. Set on a generous corner lot, the property is newly rezoned as Residential-Commercial and offers incredible potential for future additions such as an ADU or dwelling space. Recent additions adding great value and peace of mind include new HVAC system and water/sewer lines connecting to Public Utilities. This home is a true gem where charm, functionality, and opportunity meet.
