About 2403 E Grace St
Step Into Living History! The Haile House is a striking example of Greek Revival architecture and a testament to Richmond’s storied past. Built circa 1844 and prominently featured in the May/June 2024 issue of Richmond Magazine's R Home, this historically significant residence is perfectly situated in the heart of the St. John’s Church Historic District. From its commanding position directly across from St. John’s Church—where Patrick Henry’s immortal words, “Give me liberty or give me death,” echoed through history—this home exudes unmatched character and prestige. Commissioned by John Van Lew, father of Union spy Elizabeth Van Lew, and designed by acclaimed architect Otis Manson, the Haile House shares its lineage with the neighboring Elmira Shelton House. Painstakingly preserved, it boasts original features such as Doric columns, six distinctive mantels, a curved banister gracing the grand staircase, pocket doors, recessed window shutters, and wide-plank flooring. Spanning four stories, the home offers a seamless blend of elegance and functionality. The English basement includes a chef’s kitchen adorned with white Thassos marble countertops, professional-grade appliances, and French doors opening to a serene garden. A formal dining room, office, and utility space complete this level. The second floor showcases a gracious entry hall, a formal parlor, a library with floor-to-ceiling bookcases, and a screened rear porch. Four spacious bedrooms are spread across the upper two levels. Outside, the property’s grandeur extends to a large double porch overlooking a landscaped garden with brick walkways, a tranquil pond, and an expansive yard—a rarity in this sought-after historic district. Recent updates, including a copper roof (2017) and a modernized HVAC system (2023), complement the home’s historic authenticity. With its unparalleled preservation and connection to Richmond’s rich history, the Haile House offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an extraordinary piece of the past.
