Property Description

Classically elegant South Hill home with preserved historic character and a refined European influence. Original details and warm, endearing spaces make it easy to fall in love the moment you walk in. Many rooms capture beautiful bay views, while a spacious balcony offers sweeping 180-degree views out to the islands—inviting you to slow down and take it all in. Thoughtfully updated kitchen and baths reflect a classic, timeless style. The welcoming floor plan is made for both cozy holiday gatherings and summer garden parties, with French doors from the kitchen and living room opening seamlessly to the patio and yard. Upstairs, two beautifully appointed en-suite bedrooms—including a gracious primary suite with a rare, oversized walk-in closet—offer comfort and privacy. A guest suite on the lower level is complemented by a built-in office and media room. You'll also find an impressive laundry room with generous storage and a charming farmhouse sink. Two-car detached garage off the alley, plus ample parking in the driveway out front. Sprinkler system in the expertly designed yard which includes mature landscaping, fruit trees and impressive hardscaping. Wonderfully maintained home includes cozy radiant heat, restored siding, and a brand new roof. Set on one of South Hill's most sought-after streets, with flat sidewalks and just moments to Boulevard Park, Fairhaven, and downtown. Worth noting that the view is legally protected on this home. This one is truly a rare gem!
