Property details

About 116 N 29th St

Priced to sell: $56,000 below assessed value. Just a half block from Libby Hill Park, this Colonial Revival townhouse is perfect for those who want lock-and-leave living. Its brick exterior never needs painting and there's not a blade of grass to cut. On the first floor is a cozy living room opening to a dining room, both with fireplaces and original pine floors. To the rear and through French doors is an eat-in kitchen, while tucked under the original staircase is a powder room. Off the kitchen is a charming brick and slate terrace, fully fenced with borders for planting. Upstairs is the primary bedroom with its dramatic cathedral ceiling and an adjacent walk-in closet. To the rear and overlooking the terrace is a second bedroom that also makes an ideal home office. A full bath with a sunken tub and separate shower is off the hall between the bedrooms. Some of the city's best restaurants and bakeries are just blocks away in this very walkable neighborhood. Down the hill in one direction is the James River and the Capital Trail and in another direction the interstates. Significant repairs and improvements have just been completed but the out-of-state owners are offering the property "As Is."
