This amazing home, just a block from the VMFA has only sold once since it was built by the first family in 1911. The current owner first rented the property and eventually bought the home from her landlord in the 60's. Built as a single family home, the house was converted to a legal duplex in the 50's. It retains that zoning currently, but could easily be brought back to its original design - as the modifications made were not extensive. Sitting on the corner, detached on all sides, with 10+ ft ceilings on both floors & huge windows ....there is no shortage of natural light. The original heart pine floors are in surprisingly good condition for their age. Front porch was rebuilt to match the original years ago. Back porch and balcony have also been rebuilt. Metal Roof (upper) was replaced with bitumen. Full walk out basement has good ceiling height and 1748 sq ft of additional space. Walk up attic has two large dormer windows with bench storage seating. (Attic and Basement square footage is NOT included in the 3496 noted) Home has Natural Gas furnaces & Hot Water heaters (not oil as noted in the tax record). Three Fireplaces. Full front porch. Rear balcony/deck and back porch overlook the fenced rear yard. Oozing with original character, 2624 is just waiting for someone with vision and the motivation to bring it in to this century.
