About this home
Welcome to 220 High Street, a rare opportunity to own a stunning piece of history in the heart of Old Town Petersburg’s Historic District. Step inside this remarkable 1840 colonial home and experience the character and craftsmanship of a bygone era, where soaring 12-foot ceilings, original hardwood floors, and six elegant fireplaces evoke the charm of the 19th century.
Boasting nearly 5,010 square feet of living space on a 5,400-square-foot lot with a private driveway, this structurally impeccable single-family residence showcases exquisite period details, including marble fireplace mantels, a grand 10-foot sliding pocket door, and antique light fixtures. The massive library, featuring wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, is a true sanctuary for book lovers.
Modern upgrades have also been made to the home’s original features. Recent improvements include two new HVAC systems, AC compressors servicing all levels, a new roof (installed approximately three years ago), and new stainless-steel appliances in the spacious, lower-level kitchen. Natural brick walls and exposed beam ceilings in the kitchen and dining areas add warmth and character, awaiting your personal touch to reimagine their layout.
The first floor offers an inviting living room, an expansive parlor ideal for entertaining, and the impressive library with a door leading out to a small porch. There is a lovely courtyard between the main house and the carriage house in the back. Upstairs, three oversized bedrooms with generous closets and a full bath provide ample living space, and a new washing machine is conveniently located on this level. While some cosmetic updates are needed throughout the property, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, the home’s solid foundation and timeless appeal offer endless possibilities.
Beyond the main residence, the property includes three individual rear apartments in the carriage house, previously rented to local college students. With some updates, these spaces offer exciting passive income potential.
Sold “AS IS” and including a one-year home warranty, 220 High Street is perfect for visionary buyers seeking a unique home with investment options. Don’t miss your chance to own this exceptional property and create something truly magnificent, blending historic elegance with modern comfort....
