6726 Stuart Avenue

Located mere blocks from the University of Richmond, Bandy Field, and the shops and restaurants at the Village, this distinctive cape, built in 1938 with hard-to-find, hand-laid clinker brick and a slate roof, offers a rare combination of striking period architecture and modern living. Entertain in both the spacious living room with wood-burning fireplace and the formal dining room that offers a French door to the patio. The kitchen boasts newer quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances. Two generous bedrooms on the first floor share a hall bath, featuring Brunschwig and Fils wallpaper and classic tile. A laundry room and a sunny office with built-ins and three windows complete the main level. The impressive primary suite encompasses the entire second level and has a fireplace, his-and-hers closets, a window seat, eave storage, and an en-suite bath with a marble vanity and ornate Turkish mosaic floor tile. Relax on the beautiful brick and slate patio that overlooks the flat yard--fully fenced with a privacy fence--and covered in mature plantings, trees, and azaleas with a detached shed.
