6 Gildersleeve Wood

Gildersleeve Wood is one of the most special, tucked-away neighborhoods in all of Charlottesville. The house is down the hill from the UVA Lawn, and just blocks from the University Hospital, in a hidden tree-lined street of historic owner-occupied homes. The hardwood floors are original and there are lots of windows. The lovely living room - with a wood burning fireplace -- leads to a four-season sunroom. The full-sized dining room and eat-in kitchen allow for gracious entertaining. Continue on the first floor to a primary bedroom, full bath, and a home office/laundry room. Upstairs there are two bedrooms, a bonus room and a bath. The driveway and garage allow for ample parking, and the back patio overlooks the private back yard. This 1920s cottage style home has 1,900 finished square feet and a wonderfully flexible floor plan. The basement has 264 sq.ft. of unfinished perfect for plenty of storage. Rock terraces, periwinkle, flowering shrubs and full-sized shade trees add to the charm and privacy of this family home.
