About This Home
Suffolk's West End Historic District doesn't just tolerate old houses — it insists on them. This 1922 Colonial Revival holds its own: true brick, not veneer, under a real slate roof, with a front portico framed by Tuscan columns that's been announcing this address for over a century. It was built to impress on purpose. James L. Bell, whose Bell Hosiery Mill was in the old Factory District, spared nothing in putting this house together- the Historical Society still describes it as built with "the finest of everything." Then the Depression took the mill, and the house moved on to the Ponds, one of the families behind Suffolk's peanut trade, and later to the Januarys, whose menswear store dressed downtown Suffolk for generations. A mill man, a peanut family, a clothier — three of the city's best-known names, one address. What each left behind isn't in the listing photos. It's move-in ready with numerous updates and upgrades. Come see it for yourself — the rest of the story is better told standing in the front hall than read in an ad.
