Discover this beautiful meticulously restored eco-friendly Craftsman bungalow, just minutes from downtown Charlottesville and one mile from 5Th Street Station. Nestled on almost an acre of wildflowers, it features a charming front porch swing and relaxing spaces throughout.

This home features top-of-the-line appliances, including a Sub Zero refrigerator, a 5-burner gas stove, a freestanding freezer, and an oversized farmhouse steel sink. Enjoy three spacious bedrooms and two beautifully tiled bathrooms. Solid wood doors, custom Prairie Style windows, and a Ventilator heat recovery system enhance its charm. The extra-wide front porch and back deck are perfect for entertaining. Plus, a separate 550 sq. ft. multi-purpose studio offers endless possibilities—use it as an office, guest space, or creative studio. With ample parking and a circular driveway, this property combines style, sustainability, and versatility in a prime location.
