About this home
Looking for a spacious house with GARAGE or STUDIO on Church Hill? Closely tied to Richmond in bygone days, this classic Greek Revival townhouse is being offered for the first time in half a century. Its traditional side-hall floor plan -- largely unaltered -- offers three floors above an English basement, all overlooking a fenced garden and brick terrace. Great care has been taken to preserve original materials such as mellow heart pine floors, Virginia walnut handrails, and six rebuilt fireplaces, while adding modern conveniences like two-zone HVAC and 300- amp electrical service. There are three bedrooms and 2.5 baths, including a spacious suite on the top floor. Highlights include large windows and high ceilings. Traditional living and dining rooms on the first floor are complemented by a more casual family room and kitchen in the English basement with exposed brick and slate floors. There are porches off the back of the first and second floors with sweeping skyline and garden views. The 19th century carriage house off a cobblestone alley can be used for a garage and workshop or upgraded for a studio or home office. The house was built in 1848 by tobacco merchants Turpin and Yarbrough whose original factory still stands at 25th and Franklin streets but its links to old Richmond don't stop there. Two doors were rescued from tobacco magnate Lewis Ginter's demolished mansion and a wooden ceiling from a long-vanished hardware store in Fulton became paneling in the living room. In the garden the remains of the original outdoor kitchen were transformed into a unique planting bed and terrace. This antebellum gem is scant blocks from the James River, the Capital Trail, and some of the city's best restaurants, bakeries and coffee shops
