About this home

Step back in time with this iconic Gallipolis Queen Anne Victorian, where historic architectural detail and a grand front porch welcome you into a home rich with original period charm. Behind its striking brick facade, you'll discover seamlessly integrated modern upgrades-including a beautifully renovated kitchen and updated bathrooms-offering the perfect blend of timeless elegance and contemporary comfort. Located in the heart of Gallipolis resting on a full city lot right along the main parade route, this home boasts gated off-street parking, and a desirable 2-car attached garage. The main level offers a main-floor bedroom with an attached bath, a large utility room, and a spacious layout designed for entertaining. The huge kitchen flows gracefully into the formal dining room and a large living area with an inviting parlor, both connecting to the covered front porch and a professionally landscaped brick patio. Upstairs, the expansive 650+ square foot owner's wing serves as a private retreat, complete with a large bedroom, sitting room, walk-in closet, and spa-like bath. The second floor also features an additional bedroom suite with its own ensuite bath and walk-in closet, as well as access to a massive third-floor conditioned attic providing exceptional storage space or more room for expansion. Step outside to an incredible outdoor sanctuary steeped in local history as the site of the very first swimming pool in Gallipolis. Today, the expansive backyard features a private deck, concrete patio, and a stylish pergola, alongside a huge lawn with endless room for gardens, games of flag football, or space for kids and pets to play.
