About This Home

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of Norfolk’s finest homes, where quality is truly at its best. Built in 1901 by Norfolk’s well-known architect, Stitt—who also designed the Library, Sacred Heart Church, Home for Funerals, and several other prestigious Norfolk homes—this residence was built to last and showcases the finest elements of its era, including a formal entryway, wood flooring, mission oak woodwork, a large brick fireplace, built-in curio cabinets and chest of drawers, as well as beautiful leaded glass French doors. This home is perfect for family gatherings, featuring an oversized kitchen along with spacious dining and living rooms that reflect the warmth of many happy occasions. There are six large bedrooms (one of which can be used as a downstairs study), along with an expansive third-floor primary bedroom complete with an ensuite bathroom. One of the bedrooms also offers a walk-out balcony, and the lower level includes a comfortable man-cave in addition to a laundry room with a washer and dryer. Situated on a desirable corner lot, beautiful lilac bushes and mature trees line the ¾-acre property, which also features a fenced-in patio already set up for a hot tub, as well as an oversized three-car garage with a loft. There is plenty of room for a garden. The central location is within walking distance of the trendy downtown area, offering restaurants, bars, and grocery stores, as well as parks, tennis courts, an ice skating rink, and bike and walking paths. Several schools are also within walking distance. The home also includes central air and a very efficient hot water system. You’ll love living here for years to come while getting to know your amazing neighbors. Perhaps that is why this is the first time in nearly 50 years that the property has been listed for sale. This home is simply waiting for someone to love it as much as the previous owners did—call today
