## Description

### Agent Description
Welcome to Warwick Hall, a prominent James River estate on just under two private acres of waterfront sophistication. This classic Georgian greets you with stately brick columns, custom insignias and sweeping James River views in almost every room. Ornamental ceiling details and exquisite carpentry underscore the timeless elegance of this estate. The 1st floor is built to entertain, beginning in the chef's eat-in kitchen with masonry fireplace and French doors spilling out to the patio. Nearby oversized living and dining areas offer something for every occasion with hardwood floors and wood shutters. The 1st floor primary suite offers generous river views and a spa-like experience. The staircase boasts custom millwork leading you upstairs to two bedrooms with river views and another primary suite with multiple closets, grand fireplace and abundant natural light. Warwick Hall offers an elevated outdoor experience of stunning grounds with oversized pool and poolhouse set at the edge of the James on over 200 feet of shoreline. Heading back to the main house reveals a full basement with river views, masonry fireplace, wet bar & full bathroom. Don't miss the chance to own this true gem!
