Situated on a handsome residential block in Mount Vernon, 16 West Read Street is a refined mid nineteenth century townhouse that blends historic architectural elegance with the scale, flexibility, and lifestyle today’s urban buyers demand. Originally constructed in 1857 for the daughter of the Attorney General of Virginia, the residence has been thoughtfully restored with curated improvements that respect its heritage while supporting modern living. A distinguished double mahogany entrance opens to a grand flagstone reception hall, setting a strong architectural tone. The ground level functions as a self contained suite with three spacious rooms, two powder rooms, and a well appointed galley kitchen. Currently used as a professional office, this level benefits from rare residential and office zoning, offering flexibility for a gallery, studio, workspace, or entertaining level. The primary living quarters unfold across the upper floors, creating a private, light filled environment....
