Property Description
Step into a rare piece of Richmond history with this extraordinary Queen Anne Victorian, believed to have been originally built by James Barton. Lovingly restored by a dedicated preservationist, this stately residence masterfully blends historic character with modern functionality while honoring the home’s architectural legacy at every turn. Striking curb appeal, highlighted by a gracious wraparound porch and towering windows, welcomes you inside to sun-drenched, oversized rooms & soaring 11-foot ceilings. The first floor offers an open floor plan that allows the kitchen to flow seamlessly into a formal living and dining spaces. There is also an oversized den, powder room and laundry on the main floor. The second floor offers 4 bedrooms and three baths. Two bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms and the other two bedrooms share a jack& jill. There is also a 1-bedroom in-law suite with a private entrance and its own utilities that offers flexibility for guests, multi-generational living or additional income potential. Modern updates include all-new electrical, plumbing, heating, and cooling systems, providing peace of mind without compromising historic charm. Recognized as a contributing structure by the Virginia Department of Historic Resources, the home showcases painstaking restoration work using salvaged original materials whenever possible. Original trim, window sashes and glass, doors, hardware, porch posts, and slate mantle elements were carefully recovered and restored. Nearly half of the original slate roof was salvaged and reused, including its striking colored accent diamonds. Replicated decorative details such as crown molding, corbels, and porch decking faithfully reflect the home’s original craftsmanship, while matching solid wood interior doors maintain architectural continuity throughout. This is more than a home—it is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own and preserve an irreplaceable piece of Richmond’s architectural heritage.
