Beautifully reimagined in the sought-after Rugby neighborhood, this extensively renovated 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home combines classic Charlottesville charm with thoughtful modern updates. A substantial new addition brings the home to 3,184 finished sq. ft. , including a bright walkout terrace level with full-size windows and doors. The stunning kitchen features Shiloh cabinetry, marble countertops, Bosch appliances and an oversized pantry, complemented by a new mudroom and laundry area. Refinished hardwood floors, custom carpentry and a newly re-lined wood-burning fireplace add warmth and character. Improvements extend well beyond the finishes with a new roof and gutters, select new Pella windows, all new interior and exterior doors, new HVAC, updated electrical and plumbing, spray-foam insulation and an encapsulated crawl space. Set on a generous 0.56-acre lot, just minutes from UVA, Barracks Road and downtown.
Venable, located between the University of Virginia Grounds and Barracks Road Shopping Center, is a residential and academic Charlottesville neighborhood with leafy streets and classic brick architecture. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Rugby Road corridor near UVA, where porch-lit sidewalks meet a steady rhythm of campus foot traffic. Early-20th-century Colonials and brick apartment buildings sit beside university-era landmarks and shaded lawns. The Corner’s independent staples—The Corner, Bodo’s Bagels, and The Jefferson Theater—set the cultural tempo just south of the neighborhood edge. Washington Park and the UVA Lawn add open green space and a collegiate backdrop. A walkable grid and frequent transit along Emmet Street tie daily routines to campus and Barracks Road.
