Amazing opportunity to own a large corner lot in the heart of Charlottesville. The home is turnkey, but could also lend itself to a extensive addition &/or further development on the 1/3 acre corner lot. The light-filled first floor offers a large living room with hardwood floors, sun room, kitchen, den or dining room, 2 bedrooms & a full bathroom. Upstairs you'll find a delightful multi-use loft space, guest sleeping quarters, a half bathroom & a bonus room. Not to be missed, there is a huge unfinished basement that offers storage galore. Recent improvements include a new roof (2019), new HVAC (2020), & new rear patio (2023). Enjoy entertaining in the private, flat back yard, while being only minutes from all that Charlottesville has to offer. Open House - Sunday 6/9, 1-3pm.
