1534 Park Ave

Built in 1915 for a principal of the Morgan Brothers Bag Company and designed by noted Richmond architect Duncan Lee, this distinguished residence blends classical European influence with timeless architectural detail. Originally offering three bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, the home has been thoughtfully preserved and enhanced over the years. In 1970, a subsequent owner modernized the façade while maintaining the original floor plan, and in 2000 the exterior was restored to better reflect the architect’s original intent, with the interior reconfigured to create the dramatic two-story foyer and the installation of the historic Jefferson Hotel chandelier (circa late 1800s) as a striking focal point. The current owners have elevated the home with a beautifully expanded primary suite, a full kitchen renovation, a custom bar addition, renovation of all three upstairs baths, primary suite laundry integration, and custom cabinetry throughout the kitchen and baths, all executed by Kitchen Design Works. Original architectural plans dating to 1915 are preserved and available. Featured on the Virginia Home and Garden Tour and included in a respected book documenting Richmond’s distinguished architecture, this is a rare opportunity to own a significant piece of the city’s history, seamlessly combining architectural pedigree with refined modern living.
