Welcome to the Haile House, a distinguished Greek Revival residence featured in the May/June 2024 issue of Richmond Magazine's R Home. Built circa 1844, this grand home is located in the heart of the St. John’s Church Historic District, directly across from the famed St. John’s Church, where Patrick... Henry delivered his iconic "Give me liberty or give me death" speech. As the sister house to the Elmira Shelton House next door, it was designed by renowned architect Otis Manson and commissioned by John Van Lew, father of Union spy Elizabeth Van Lew. It was completed in 1844 by his wife, Eliza. Spanning four stories, the Haile House offers a thoughtfully designed layout. The first floor, or English basement, includes a spacious kitchen with a center island, white Thassos marble countertops, professional-grade appliances, recessed lighting, and a large formal dining room. French doors open to the garden, and a functional office and utility space complete the level. The second floor features a gracious entry hall leading into the formal parlor, adjacent to a library with floor-to-ceiling bookcases, and opens to a large screened rear porch. The top two floors offer two bedrooms on each level. Original architectural details are preserved, including the Doric front columns, six original mantles, hardware, millwork, a grand staircase with a curved banister, recessed window shutters, pocket doors, and wide-plank flooring. Recent updates include a copper roof (2017) and a modern HVAC system with updated ductwork (2023). The home boasts tiled bathrooms, built-in bookcases, ample storage, tall windows, and large moldings that emphasize its historic charm. Outside, a double porch overlooks a landscaped garden with brick walkways and a serene pond. Situated on a generous lot, the Haile House blends historic significance with modern luxury.
