2607 E Grace Street

The Turner-Turpin House, built in 1840, offers a relaxed spaciousness rarely found in Church Hill's grand antebellum homes. From the moment you enter its wide center hall-- stretching all the way to the rear of the house-- you sense unusual expansiveness in this 4,097 Sf, 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath house. Full-length windows and a double rear porch overlook a stately, walled garden with brick terraces, off-street parking and room for the addition of a swimming pool and garage. Elevated on the crest of a desirable gaslit block, the house offers coveted privacy. On the first floor are living and dining rooms, a paneled library, and kitchen opening to a charming breakfast room with garden views. Upstairs are three bedrooms and two full baths. The English basement --ideal for in-laws, Airbnb or home office --has a bedroom, family room, office, full bath, kitchenette and exterior entrance. Near Libby Hill Park, VCU, airport, James River, and the city's top cafes and bakeries. Additional photos to come.
