One of the five “beehives of Hanover” (due to its beehive-domed turret)of the 2100 block of Hanover Avenue in the heart of Richmond’s historic Fan District. This special home reflects much of the late 19th and early 20th century City Beautiful movement. A Queen Anne revival, it possesses many of its original features, including high ceilings, tall windows and pine flooring. An easy walk to several popular restaurants, shops and markets. As well as the VMFA, VCU – and Fox Elementary. The 2100 block itself is well-known for its community spirit and life: it is where the Fan District’s Annual Halloween Festival originated decades ago! Sunlight abounds in this fully-detached home which features crown moldings and chair railings throughout; built-in china cabinets in the dining room; a living room and family room-both w beautiful Gas Fireplaces, and a morning room off of the kitchen with another Brick Gas Fireplace, custom floor-to-ceiling bookcase w/ large storage cabinets and bar sink. Don’t miss the charming powder room on the first floor. Venture upstairs via the front main staircase or the secondary rear staircase. Enter the spacious Primary Suite facing Hanover featuring a lovely Fireplace (non-working) and an expansive attached full bath. Additionally, there are two more large bedrooms, a full bath and laundry area. The true gem of this home is the side and rear brick terrace-accessible from the family room and kitchen. Featuring a unique Atrium with 15 skylights, Ceiling Fans and Built-in lighting, electrical outlets, a floor-to-ceiling mirror to reflect the stunning rear Terrace-surrounded by tall brick walls one of which is imbedded with unique statuary symbolizing the seasons of the year. The front terrace is slate, surrounded on three sides by flower beds. A spectacular maple tree is directly in front of the house. The home has been lovingly well-maintained: and it shows! Truly, this home needs to be seen to be fully appreciated! Be sure to check out the Virtual Tour and the Interactive Floor Plan.
