You know you always wanted to live in a castle! Built in 1926, this French-inspired chateau has everything people travel many miles to see as a tourist but now you can have it all to yourself: A rounded tower entrance; arched doorways, wood-beamed very high ceilings; an open floor plan; double-paned tilt-in windows: wood floors; multi-level terraces and brick walkways. This home is located two blocks away from Piedmont Arts Association, the Virginia State Museum of Natural History, the YMCA, furniture shopping, a vintage pinball arcade, the Farmer’s Market that features locally home grown farm products; hair and beauty salons of all kinds: wellness and spa opportunities, Theatreworks Playhouse; and the New College Institute, just to name a few.
