Only once in a lifetime does the opportunity become available to possess a residence of this quality and substance: Stately brick and slate Colonial designed by noted architect Clarence Huff and constructed in 1929 on over an acre atop a hill overlooking the James River. A front to rear entrance foyer with turned staircase provides entrance to this magnificent home: oversized formal rooms, tall ceilings, and lovely millwork and detailing throughout enhance the sense of having stepped into a more gracious era. 4150+ finished sq ft include 6 bedrooms/3 ½ baths, an enormous updated kitchen with oversized walk-in pantry, and a master bedroom suite with fireplace. Stone retaining walls, walks, and driveway to 2-car attached garage. Private vistas across the serpentine twists of Riverside Drive toward the city skyline in the distance.
