County/City: Charlottesville

Subdivision: LOCUST GROVE

Nestled on one of Charlottesville’s most sought-after streets, this enchanting 1930s home with one level guest cottage blends timeless character with thoughtful updates, blocks from the vibrant energy of Downtown. Framed by mature landscaping that offers rare front-yard privacy, the property opens with a wide covered porch that hints at the warmth and charm within. Inside, a gracious central foyer welcomes you with a sense of quiet elegance. The main level flows effortlessly through a sunlit living room with wood-burning fireplace, a formal dining room perfect for gatherings, a cozy den, and an efficient galley-style kitchen with eat-in nook and adjoining mudroom/pantry. Upstairs, you’ll find three comfortable bedrooms and two full baths, each echoing the home’s understated sophistication. Step outside and discover a hidden world: the rear terrace unfolds to a breathtaking backyard—lush, layered, and private. Just beyond the main house, the beautifully appointed guest cottage offers vaulted ceilings, 2 living areas, full kitchen, zero entry bathroom, and laundry. Whether used as an income-producing rental, an in-law suite, or home office, the flexibility is a rare and incredibly valuable asset. Shown by appointment.
