Step into the heart of Richmond’s coveted Fan District in this beautifully preserved 1907 historic home, where timeless architecture meets thoughtful modern updates.
A classic wrought-iron stoop and landscaped front garden welcome you into a stunning vestibule entry with rich wood paneling and marble flooring, setting the tone for the craftsmanship found throughout. Inside, the gracious living room makes a striking first impression with dramatic double triangular fireplaces framed by twin columns and mirror mantels—an unforgettable backdrop for entertaining or cozy evenings at home.
The elegant great room features coffered ceilings, recessed lighting, built-ins, detailed chair rail molding, and classic wainscoting. French doors open into a spacious, light-filled eat-in kitchen with new stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, custom cabinetry, and tile backsplash.
Historic details abound with five fireplaces (three gas), soaring 10.5-foot ceilings, refinished wood floors, and abundant natural light from a dramatic skylight above the staircase. The luxurious primary suite offers double walk-in closets and a spa-like bath with skylight, jetted soaking tub, and custom tile-and-glass shower.
Additional features include a renovated powder room, basement laundry and workshop space, a Vitasalus whole-house water filtration system, and eco-friendly cork flooring in two bedrooms. Outside, enjoy the second-floor balcony, lower veranda, and deck overlooking a private garden oasis leading to rear parking for up to three cars—a true rarity in the Fan.
Location is everything, and this home delivers - just one block from neighborhood favorites including Starbucks, Idle Hands Bread Co., and Uliveto, plus moments from Strawberry Street shopping and all the charm that makes Fan living so special.
2507 Kensington Ave offers a rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully updated piece of Richmond history with exceptional walkability, timeless character, and conveniences that are nearly impossible to match.
