Even in a neighborhood of architecturally interesting houses this one-- built in 1931 with commanding views of Chimborazo Park-- stands out. Its exterior is that of a dignified, classically accented London town house while its interior is a riot of Spanish Moorish detail. Fanciful arches, niches, molded plaster, and a sweeping staircase are exquisitely crafted with unique finishes. Noted Richmond architect Bascom J. Rowlett's floor plan is unchanged and original light fixtures, leaded glass windows, vividly colored porcelain and tile baths, decorative hardware, and rich oak flooring remain intact. In addition to 2,600 sf of finished living space on two floors are a charming third floor garretâEUR"full of possibilitiesâEUR"and a large, walk-out basement with bath that is perfect for a workshop or further improvement. On the first floor is a living room, a dining room separated by a colonnade from the breakfast room, and an updated galley kitchen with quartz counter tops. On the second floor are four bedrooms, one with its own screen porch. The formal rear garden opens onto a public alley providing an option for off-street parking.
