Back on the market due to buyer financing—no fault of the seller. Steeped in Richmond history and timeless charm, 31 Towana Road is a distinguished 1930s brick residence crowned with a classic slate roof—an enduring testament to craftsmanship from another era. Ideally situated on one of the city’s most coveted tree-lined streets, this stately home is just moments from the University of Richmond, the Country Club of Virginia, and the boutique dining and shopping of the Near West End. Offering over 5,000 square feet of finished living space, the home presents a rare opportunity to thoughtfully update and reimagine a true architectural gem. Original millwork, hardwood floors, and gracious proportions reflect the elegance of a bygone era, while the generous layout provides the perfect canvas for a buyer to blend historic character with modern luxury. A formal living room with gas fireplace and an elegant dining room anchor the main level, complemented by multiple sun-filled sitting rooms and flexible spaces ideal for home offices, studios, or additional living areas. With four bedrooms plus an optional fifth and five full baths, the home offers exceptional scale and versatility. A private primary suite, spacious secondary bedrooms, and multiple gathering areas invite a vision for renovation that enhances both comfort and functionality. French doors lead to a tranquil backyard framed by mature landscaping—an inviting retreat ready to be elevated into a truly exceptional outdoor living space. Rarely does a property of this architectural significance, size, and location become available—especially one offering such a compelling opportunity for customization. 31 Towana Road is ideal for the buyer seeking to create a one-of-a-kind residence where historic charm and modern living converge.
