Exceptional opportunity to own one of the finest and most architecturally distinguished properties in historic Petersburg and take advantage of lucrative tax credits to renovate it. The Mcllwaine-Friend House served as Confederate General George Pickett's headquarters during the Civil War. Old house lovers will appreciate that generations of a single family, as well as the current owner, have preserved this Italianate mansion largely intact, including its original arched windows, heart pine floors, cast iron balconies and elaborate porch benches.

This two-story stucco-covered brick house has a grand hall with 12' ceiling flanked by parlors with original marble mantels, ornamental plasterwork and pocket doors. The hall opens to full-length rear porch with stairs to the garden. Also on the first floor is a half bath, butlers pantry and the remains of a kitchen. A full English basement with 8' ceilings and three fireplaces has large rooms with original wooden floors and chair rails.The second floor, with 12' ceilings, has 4 bedrooms, 3 baths and a porch.
