414 E Beverley St

Located on one of the most iconic streets in historic Staunton, 414 East Beverley is a jewel in a gracious neighborhood of elegant homes. Just steps away is the charming downtown, filled with shops, restaurants, and cultural landmarks such as the Woodrow Wilson Presidential Library and the American Shakespeare Theater. Built in 1893 by R.S. Turk, this Victorian beauty was awarded a Residential Rehabilitation Award from the Historic Staunton Foundation. It is a study in the Queen Anne style of architecture, featuring panels, dentil molding, shingles, turned spindles, louvered shutters and sunbursts. Inside, the decorative detail continues with turned posts, spindle work and incised moldings. Period fireplaces and elegant mantels grace the foyer, living and dining rooms, bedrooms and office, some with their original, beautifully colored and embossed hearth tiles. This four-bedroom home offers four levels of flexible living space, featuring high ceilings and oversized windows that fill the rooms with light. A welcoming front porch graces the front of the house, and two back porches overlook a tranquil backyard with mature trees and a view of the Staunton hills. A driveway provides convenient off-street parking.
