Property Description

Charming 1920s farmhouse nestled in the heart of the coveted Westhampton area. This historic gem offers a rare opportunity for country living in the city! This unique home has had only three owners—the original owner worked for the Civilian Conservation Corps, planting a fruit tree orchard that included the surrounding streets like Orchard and Pine Ridge. The home is beautifully sited on an oversized, landscaped lot, spanning two parcels—one in the City and one in Henrico. It boasts wonderful curb appeal enhanced by a custom-designed picket fence, a graceful arbor entry to the backyard, and a stunning lattice privacy fence. Special features include a front porch with a copper roof and evergreen clematis on a trellis and a charming, landscaped courtyard adorned with espaliered crabapple trees. In 2024, a new irrigation system was installed to maintain the lush greenery, and the environmentally friendly pea gravel driveway with granite cobblestone pavers provides off-street parking. Inside, the home offers a perfect blend of period charm and modern luxury. The chef’s kitchen is a standout, featuring exposed beams, custom cabinetry, and top-of-the-line stainless appliances including a Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Miele dishwasher. A large farmhouse sink and abundant prep space make it ideal for culinary enthusiasts. Adjacent is a sunny breakfast room with a second antique farmhouse sink, adding a nostalgic touch. The home includes four bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths with high ceilings and original wood floors on both levels. Throughout, you’ll find beautiful millwork, paneled doors, crown molding, and original hardware. Within walking distance to The Avenues and the Village Shopping Center, 6506 Patterson Avenue offers an unbeatable location. Groceries, drug stores, restaurants, and shops are just steps away. This one-of-a-kind property provides the perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience.
