Ideally located in Charlottesville's coveted North Downtown neighborhood, this elegant c1900 farmhouse seamlessly marries the charm and character of a 125-year-old home with modern renovations and additions to create an amazingly comfortable and livable 21st century showpiece. 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, an open kitchen/family room combination, luxurious and private primary suite, gorgeous formal dining room. Abundant natural light, quality finishes and tasteful features throughout. The corner lot is a lush and private downtown oasis, oriented away from neighbors and traffic. Maplewood Cemetery makes an excellent neighbor, providing a private and quiet park-like atmosphere with minimal noise and light pollution. The backyard patio area is the perfect spot for morning coffee, summer dining, and autumn gatherings around the wood-burning fireplace. A fully finished detached outbuilding can serve as exercise room, private home office space, or even an ADU. New standing seam metal roof in 2020, conditioned crawl, fully updated kitchen and baths...this property is turn-key. Location is as walkable as Charlottesville gets yet buffered from commercial activity to maintain residential feel. Ample parking, both on and off street.
