Welcome to "Bienvenue," a remarkable brick and slate residence originally built in 1803 in Hanover County and thoughtfully disassembled and rebuilt in 1937 in its coveted setting near the University of Richmond and the Country Club of Virginia. A Charles Gillette-designed portico entry opens to a gracious front hall highlighted by a soaring Queen's Rise turned staircase and 9 1/2-foot ceilings on the first floor. Elegant living and dining rooms--both with fireplaces--offer generous scale, while oversized windows with original wavy glass bathe the interiors in natural light. Period millwork, wide heart pine floors, and timeless architectural details are found throughout. The large, open kitchen features original inset custom cabinetry and granite countertops and flows seamlessly into a handsome paneled den with built-ins and a fireplace. Oversized "Jefferson" windows lead to a charming sunroom with painted exposed brick and steps down to a brick patio overlooking a spacious, beautifully landscaped garden. The brick privacy wall and fountain are beautiful accents to the lovely grounds. The first-floor guest suite provides a comfortable bedroom, a sitting room and full bath- Ideal for an in-law or au pair suite. A covered side entry from the cobblestone edged driveway opens to a practical mudroom. Upstairs, five spacious bedrooms--including one with a fireplace--are complemented by three full baths and a wonderful study with built-ins and a fifth fireplace. The waterproofed basement level offers excellent future recreation space with the home's sixth fireplace, along with abundant storage and mechanical areas. The large attic offers great additional storage. Notable improvements include new copper gutters, a whole-house gas generator, newly repaired and replaced roof, and a proper detached two-car garage, completing this extraordinary and historically significant home.
