$1,000,000 2104 Hanover Avenue, Richmond, VA 23220

This house is a gem! Dating from 1911, and with only three owners since then, this classic Fan residence retains its original character and many original features (including working pocket doors, transom windows, light fixtures, and brass hardware) but also has been tastefully and caringly updated in a timeless style. Fully detached, the house is unobstructed on the east side, offering a rare luxury for the Fan-abundant light-which leaves a warm and airy feeling throughout. Charming features pervade the home's 2900 finished square feet. From the gracious foyer to the picturesque upper hallway, the hardwoods gleam. The living spaces are elegantly appointed, with four fireplaces, picture/chair rail mouldings in some rooms, and crown moulding and plantation shutters throughout the house. Not long ago the spacious kitchen was handsomely renovated with Thermador appliances, custom cabinetry (including a built-in refrigerator) and wet bar. Seating options at the island and banquette allow for easy hosting and entertaining. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms and two beautiful marble and tile bathrooms make for comfortable but stylish living. The outdoor spaces also have much to offer. An expansive front porch and miniature lawn provide open views of Hanover Avenue and are frequent stops for relaxing, gathering, and enjoying neighborhood activity. An attractive brick patio in the back can serve as a quiet sanctuary or a setting for private get-togethers. The home's original carriage house was recently finished as a comfortable office/library, but it easily could be converted into a garage. There is also a bricked parking area at the rear of the property. In addition to the home's finished square footage, there are ample areas for storage in the basement (where a second washer and dryer are located) and a garden shed. This exceptional home, which combines the Fan's historical charm with refined modern conveniences, is a rare find indeed.
