In the highly sought-after Virginia Heights Historic District with Lake Virginia access, an updated residence combines modern luxuries and timeless charm sitting on nearly a third of an acre and surrounded by a live oak tree canopy. This home offers a blend of original architectural elements and contemporary features. The new solid wood custom door opens to a warm living room space with a fireplace. A newly updated dining room features Schumacher wall covering, custom window treatments and a stylish chandelier that compliments the new designer lighting selected throughout the home. The owners have added a professionally designed butler’s pantry offering the ideal space for staging parties or more intimate gatherings and tastings. Whimsical Thibaut wall covering mixes with sleek dark countertops and space for cases of your favorite varietals. The updated kitchen includes solid surface countertops, a gas range, abundant storage and casual countertop dining space. Off the kitchen is the recently added utility mudroom with plenty of space for a home office and additional storage for a busy household. The open plan includes the kitchen, casual dining and the family room in a shared space. The owners have also added built-in benches, an additional fireplace and warm lighting to make the family room a cozy space for gatherings. Flexible space for an office or playroom as well as a full bath completes the first floor. The second floor includes a newly renovated primary suite with an expansive closet and a new primary bath. All of the baths throughout the home have been updated to match the renovations of this home. Three additional bedrooms and two additional baths finish this second story. The spacious screened lanai off the family room opens up to a saltwater pool and heated spa added in 2021. The poolside ambiance is further enhanced by the detached 400-square-foot guest house, which stands as an independent structure outside the main square footage, ideal for a guest house or owner’s workshop or studio. The owners have construction plans available that show the potential to turn this space into a gym, entertaining area and guest space.
