Description

Designed by noted Richmond architect Duncan Lee and located on one of the most charming blocks of West Avenue--a hidden gem in the Fan--this architecturally significant Colonial Revival residence, with subtle Tudor influences, offers a rare blend of classic design and functional elegance.

The floor plan is tailored for both refined entertaining and day-to-day living, with a gracious entry vestibule featuring marble floors and a leaded glass window. The living room centers around a gas fireplace and custom window seat framed by front-facing multi-pane windows. A formal dining room or family living space opens through French doors to a private, walled courtyard garden, complete with an elegant fountain--offering a serene extension of the living space.

The kitchen is outfitted with quality cabinetry, granite countertops, and premium appliances, flowing into a light filled eating area. A well-located powder room completes the main level.

Upstairs, the primary suite includes an en-suite bath and access to a private sitting room or study. Two additional bedrooms are served by a well-appointed hall bath. The third floor features a spacious bedroom with a full bath, as well as additional flex or storage space.

Meticulously maintained and updated with care, this distinguished West Avenue home reflects the enduring appeal of Duncan Lee's design sensibility in a setting that remains one of the Fan's most desirable.

“1529 West Avenue is one of those rare Fan District homes where the architecture, the block, and the feeling all align. West Avenue has always been a hidden gem—quiet, beautifully scaled, and deeply charming in a way that’s hard to replicate. This is the kind of street people fall in love with… and never want to leave.”
