Imagine a residence of enviable distinction just blocks from Virginia's state capital. An architectural nonpareil, the Hancock-Wirt-Caskie is a rare survivor of the Federal style with arcaded front porches, Flemish-bond brickwork, marble trim, and interior woodwork of the highest quality. Built in 1809, this prestigious property was once home the attorney who prosecuted Aaron Burr for treason. Later in the 19th C., two Richmond mayors lived here. Beginning in the 1980s, the house underwent a museum-quality restoration. For lease are the two main floors. The main level has soaring ceilings, head-turning trim details, and burnished floors with grandly proportioned rooms. The upper level has three spacious rooms, kitchenette, and sumptuous hall. Leasable space is approximately 3,000 sf. An additional 950 sf at the rear could be developed for a long-term tenant. Use of rear garden is negotiable. Prominently located at 5th & Main, the house is five blocks from Capitol Square. Nearby are City Hall, the courts, VCU Medical, the Riverfront, and National Battlefield Park. This space could easily accommodate combined residential and office use.
