Property Description
Originally built in 1878 and beautifully restored for modern living, 143 Marshall St is a remarkable Italianate-style Victorian bursting with old-world charm and historic detail! The home’s restoration earned the Preservation-Restoration Design Award from the Historic Petersburg Foundation in 2012, and the work went far beyond aesthetics—electrical, plumbing, insulation and more were brought up to modern standards while preserving its historic character. Located blocks from Poplar Lawn Park and Old Towne, the home makes an unforgettable first impression with its picturesque façade and elaborate covered front porch featuring turned columns, decorative brackets, and intricate spindlework. Step inside to a grand foyer where original hardwood floors, 11’ ceilings, and a fireplace with original tilework immediately set the tone. These beautiful hardwoods and tall ceilings continue into the living room, where an ornate fireplace with a Classical Revival-style mantel serves as the centerpiece. Original pocket doors open to the dining room, complete with yet another fireplace. At the rear, the fully updated kitchen features custom cabinetry, glass-front uppers with crown molding, Quartz counters, farmhouse sink, JennAir appliances, and an adjoining pantry/storage area. The first floor is rounded out by a spacious primary suite with hardwood floors, fireplace, and an ensuite bath featuring a clawfoot tub and classic wainscoting. A glass-panel door provides easy access to the rear porch. Upstairs you’ll find three additional bedrooms, including a second primary suite with a huge walk-in closet and impressive ensuite with dual vanities, soaking tub, and walk-in shower with marble tile. The two additional bedrooms offer ample closet space, ceiling fan/light fixtures, and fireplaces, while an updated hall bath features a tiled walk-in shower. Out back, a rear deck overlooks the backyard. Rich with history, beautifully restored, and thoughtfully updated, 143 Marshall St is a rare opportunity to own a true piece of VA history!
