About this home
Step into a rare piece of Richmond’s past with this extraordinary Park Avenue residence. Part of the historic “Wallen Row,” built in the late 1890s by Englishman James H. Wallen, the home has been reimagined by designer Perry Des Jardins to seamlessly pair timeless craftsmanship with modern comforts. Classic details, high ceilings, and warm, inviting spaces welcome you inside, with formal living and dining rooms flowing into the updated kitchen. A chef’s dream, it features granite counters, abundant cabinets, a walk-in pantry, a Miele dishwasher, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. A cozy family room with full bath can serve as a first-floor guest suite. Brick-paved side and rear gardens, enhanced with classic boxwoods and professionally designed landscaping, provide a serene outdoor retreat.
The home spans three levels with two bedrooms on the second floor, including a main suite with en suite bath, walk-in closet, sitting/dressing room, and new morning bar with sink and refrigeration. The third floor offers two additional bedrooms and a full bath. Updates include substantial masonry restoration (with a five-year guarantee), extensive plaster and paint work, new custom laundry cabinetry with Miele appliances, and refurbished kitchen. Electrical improvements include all-new switches with dimming capability, added outlets, in-ceiling LED lighting, surge protection, and smart Nest technology with four thermostats and nine CO/smoke detectors. A Moen Flo Control system monitors water use and shuts off the main supply in case of leaks. Additional enhancements include new hinges and hardware, new bathroom exhaust, refinished floors, new basement sink, valve replacements, and upgraded security.
With two off-street parking spaces, beautifully restored gardens, and a location close to shops, restaurants, and the interstate, this home offers a rare blend of history, luxury, and peace of mind. Schedule your tour today!
