Property Description

Welcome to 317 55th Street in Newport News, VA!

Featuring 5 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, the home sits on a spacious fenced lot and showcases architectural details rarely found today. From the moment you enter, you'll be captivated by the intricate woodwork, soaring ceilings, and distinctive stained-glass accents that reflect the home's historic heritage. The main level is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, offering multiple gathering spaces including a formal dining room, an inviting parlor, a private library, a bright sun-filled sitting room, and a well-appointed kitchen with adjoining pantry space.

A rare opportunity to own a piece of history without sacrificing modern convenience, this one-of-a-kind property seamlessly blends the elegance of a bygone era with the functionality today's buyer desires.
