North Downtown: Conveniently located near UVA and Downtown, this 1903 Arts and Crafts style home is furnished with a curated mix of mid-century modern furniture, vintage Youngstown Steel kitchen cabinets, and bespoke treasures from travels around the world. Designed by renowned architect Eugene Bradbury, 502 Park Hill features stone and stucco construction with stained glass, pocket doors, fireplaces and private porches. An architectural historian wrote that its red terra cotta roof is among the “most beautiful roofs to be found in all of Charlottesville, or, all of Virginia." Sited on almost two acres of land, it is a ten-minute walk to downtown.
Step into the gracious foyer and there is a living room with a fieldstone fireplace on the left that opens to a large, covered veranda. Beyond the original pocket doors is a cozy den, perfect for a home office. To the right of the foyer is the classic dining room with a deep-set fireplace and stained-glass windows. The kitchen is fully equipped, including a gas stove and breakfast room with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves; a butlers pantry now holds the washer and dryer. There is a full bath on the first floor.
Up the gorgeous staircase you’ll find four bedrooms and two additional baths. Two bedrooms have private balconies, and all have decorative fireplaces. The third floor can function as storage.
Pets are on a case-by-case basis. There is a Charles Steiff piano in dining room. Heated by hot water radiators; Windmill whisper-quiet air conditioning units.
In addition to the front porch, side porch, and upstairs balconies, the home has a lovely large yard with mature trees and plenty of parking. The owners have included yard maintenance and landscaping in the rent so you can just enjoy the surroundings.
The property is one mile from the historic Downtown Mall, 2.5 miles from UVA, and is easily accessible by bike, public transportation, or car. McIntire Park, with walking and biking paths, is right around the corner. Convenient to 250 Bypass, I64 and Rt. 29 and less than 10 minutes from Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s and many other shops and restaurants.
