John Harper. It is almost certain that George Washington visited here and may have attended parties in the gracious formal rooms and danced in the beautifully appointed Ballroom or Great Room, as an early resident, Dr. Elijah Cullen Dick, was amongst his friends. The curved stone steps lead into the elegant entry hallway, with a keystone arch, then open to the formal living and dining rooms, separated by another gorgeous keystone arch. Each of these spacious front rooms is graced with wood burning fireplaces, deeply articulated moldings, gorgeous heart pine floors and high ceilings. The dining room offers two china cabinets and a full length glass door opening to the delightful garden with covered dining space and a lovely fish pond with fountain. The eat in kitchen features custom cabinets, stainless steel appliances and new granite countertops, a gas fireplace on a raised hearth and French doors leading to the brick walled garden. Off the kitchen is a recently renovated powder room, dry bar and elevator, plus access to the "horse alley" leading to the street. On the second level, sunlight streams into the grand ballroom from the three windows across the front of the house, enhanced by a stately fireplace on the west wall. The library is paneled in original pine while a discreet wet bar peaks out from behind folding doors on the way to thew book lined hallway leading to the guest bedroom and bath and elevator. The third floor offers a sun drenched master bedroom with an en suite bath, fireplace as well as a third bedroom and full bath. Down another passageway above the horse alley, there is a bright and sunny exercise/laundry room or playroom and access to the elevator. The fourth floor opens to a fabulous bright and airy fourth bedroom with arched faux stone feature. There is a full bath on this level and access to the attic. With four bedrooms and four and a half baths, gleaming heart pine floors throughout, this is a fabulous and spacious home on Gentry Row! Property is also for sale VAAX252346.
