802 Court St #A, Lynchburg, VA 24504

Encompassing the entire top level of The Gilliam House - this fully-furnished historic mansion atop downtown Lynchburg - The Aurora Suite - is a one-of-a-kind space combining historic character with modern comfort. With its wonderous panoramic views over The City and from its large private deck, its high-ceilings (13') with Minka Aire Monte Cristo fans, and its original hardwood floors, large bath with a clawfoot tub, and a private office and stacked washer/dryer, this apartment is quite unique and distinguished. The layout of the space is unorthodox with the bath's access and kitchen(ette) located in its main hallway. It is important to convey that although there is a fridge, oven, range-top, and sink (smallish), the kitchen was designed as a kitchenette and then expanded; it is more than ample for one or two persons, but not sufficient for cooking for large groups. This space has been on Airbnb for many years with consistent 5.0 reviews with rave comments about its spacious bedroom and den, triple-sash Jeffersonian historic windows, and especially its fabulous private deck nigh unparalleled in The City. Located less than a block from the top of monument terrace on Court Street, which boasts a public elevator down to Church Street, the entire downtown area with its wide array of restaurants and venues, are within easy walking distance. Owner covers water & sewer, trash, and handles the upkeep of the building's exterior including the requisite yardwork. Tenants cover electricity (there is no gas in the building). Smoking inside the space is not permitted, but is allowed on the exterior decks. Street parking in front of the building is readily available on evenings, nights and weekends; City of Lynchburg covered garage parking spaces (less than 100 yards from the entrance to the apartment) are available for $50/month with 24/7 access (and such parking is quite safe as the garage is shared with The City of Lynchburg Police Department).
