  Remarks Misc:userdefined80	Greek Revival Home in Iconic Solar Hill - Nearly 100 Years of History Located in one of Bristol's most iconic and historically significant areas, this Greek Revival residence on Solar Street offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of the city's heritage. Solar Hill was added to both the Virginia Landmarks Register and the National Register of Historic Places in 2001, and this property received the Bristol Virginia Historic District Preservation Award in 2016. This home showcases a remarkable amount of its original character and craftsmanship from when it was built, including its architectural details, trim work, historic fireplaces, and overall design that reflects true Greek Revival style. The attic has a ceiling fan and most rooms have a/c window units. This well-maintained home offers approximately 13 rooms, including 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 6 fireplaces (2 gas). The floorplan features a formal living room, formal dining room, an eat-in kitchen, and a library with pocket doors, French doors, and built-in bookcases. Recent updates include the addition of a charming coffee nook and approximately 500 square feet of extra living space. A spacious foyer welcomes you inside, leading to a main-level primary bedroom with ensuite bath. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms—most with fireplaces—along with two full bathrooms, a wide hallway, a covered porch, a sunroom, and a versatile room that works well as a private office space tucked away at the back of the home. The layout of the upstairs and back portion of the house also provides potential flexibility. The property offers the possibility for a small home-based workspace in the rear of the home while maintaining separation from the main living areas. Additionally, the home's historic character and unique features present an opportunity for short-term rental use such as a Bed and Breakfast, if permitted by local regulations. Outdoor spaces include a welcoming covered front veranda, a sunroom, a garage, a large attic, a large basement, and a beautifully maintained garden. A unique log cabin, added by the previous owner, provides additional options for use or enjoyment. The grounds are just as inviting as the interior. The entire yard is fully fenced—ideal for children, pets, or anyone who values privacy and peace of mind. The front yard proudly features the original wrought-iron fencing, adding a touch of timeless charm and historic character to the property. The backyard offers a generous space perfect for gardening, outdoor play, or summer barbecues. The quiet, tree-lined surroundings provide a serene retreat while still placing you only minutes from Bristol's vibrant amenities. This highly desirable location places you within minutes of some of Bristol's most beloved destinations. Enjoy morning treats from favorites like Blackbird Bakery or Bristol Bagel & Bakery, explore the historic charm of the Bristol Train Station, or visit the Birthplace of Country Music Museum. For entertainment, The Paramount Center for the Arts offers year-round performances. Everyday conveniences are nearby with Food City and Kroger just a short drive away. And for those who love being close to the action, this home is only minutes from the Tennessee state line and the famous State Street, where you can stand in two states at once and enjoy an exciting blend of local shops, restaurants, festivals, and downtown events. Enjoy views of the South Holston Mountains from the veranda or upper balcony, as well as vibrant downtown. Solar Street is part of one of Bristol's most historic and beloved areas, known for its architectural character and longstanding significance—making this home an exceptional opportunity in a truly remarkable location. The photos capture much of the charm, but this property is best appreciated in person. Buyer/buyer's agent to verify all information. Info deemed reliable but not guaranteed. No sign on propert
