About This Home

As of September 2024

Imagine the privilege of residing on one of Richmond's most desirable streets. Known for its sublime architecture and picturesque gardens, West Avenue in the heart of the Fan is only 3 blocks long. Homes here are highly coveted and rarely become available. Laurel Hill House was originally constructed in 1931 as a dormitory for nursing students. This exclusive residence has been meticulously transformed into 10 luxurious condos, including Unit 23, a stunning showcase of refined design and sophisticated living. Step inside Unit 23 and be greeted by cosmopolitan wallpaper accents, plantation shutters, rich cherry floors, and tasteful built-ins that exude a sense of elevated taste and style. The spacious open layout bathed in natural light creates an inviting ambiance, ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is a culinary delight with leathered granite countertops, SS appliances, and convenient island, setting the stage for gourmet meals. The primary suite with a cozy reading nook, custom walk-in closet and ensuite bath is designed for relaxation. The unit's two stunningly appointed bathrooms both feature premium fixtures and pleasing wallpaper. Two additional bedrooms allow space for guests, an in-home office, or potential exercise/mediation room. Laurel Hill House offers the rare amenity of a guest suite within the building, providing private accommodations for your overnight visitors, ensuring their comfort and privacy. Enjoy the tranquil interior courtyard featuring a bubbling fountain, communal grill, and inviting seating areas—a perfect spot to socialize with neighbors or host gatherings. Stay active in the building's light-filled exercise room. Walk to local eateries, the VMFA, theaters, and parks embracing a vibrant urban lifestyle. This unique building boasts one of the area's most favorable HOA fees, providing exceptional value for the maintenance-free lifestyle it offers. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Fan District history with all the comforts of modern luxury living.
