OMG! That staircase! 8,000 square feet in Virginia. $799,000

January 3, 2024

Holy staircase! That thing is amazing! This house was featured on HGTV’s, Generation Renovation. The house was built in 1914. It is located on .54 acres in Suffolk, Virginia. Considering the size of this house, the price doesn’t seem all that unreasonable, but I can’t imagine trying to heat it. The house features a covered front porch, porte cochere, grand foyer, beautiful staircase, stained glass windows, coffered ceiling, wainscoting, wide baseboards and crown moulding. There are pocket doors, transom windows and the old servant call system. Nine bedrooms, six bathrooms and 8,000 square feet. $799,000
