1103 Juliana Street

At the corner of Juliana and 11th St in the Julia-Ann Square Historic District, this 1900 brick Colonial is one of Parkersburg’s most photographed homes, and the interior matches the facade. Stately columns and a leaded-glass door open to a foyer built for arrivals: Tiffany-style chandelier, fireplace, built-in benches, and a sweeping grand staircase. Pocket doors lead to the receiving parlor, while beyond the stairs a rare oval dining room showcases built-in china cabinets, ornate cornice moldings and a commanding mantel. A formal living room and great room continue the procession, each with its own fireplace, part of nine throughout the home in a mix of gas and decorative. The updated eat-in kitchen pairs granite, an island, and abundant cabinetry with a butler’s pantry and radiant heated floors, opening to a low-maintenance synthetic-turf backyard. The back staircase rises to four generous bedrooms, including a primary suite joined to an adjoining bedroom and nursery by the original shared bath, its claw-foot tub and marble sinks intact. The third floor, once the home’s ballroom, is now a 23x24 billiards room anchored by a high-end pool table that conveys, with two more bedrooms, a modern full bath and an expansive cedar closet. Updated HVAC, central air, and three fully conditioned levels bring modern comfort to 4,700 sq ft of original woodwork and craftsmanship. Stroll to the Smoot Theatre, the Actors Guild, downtown dining, and Point Park, where the sternwheeler departs for Blennerhassett Island Historical State Park, with WVU Medicine Camden Clark minutes away.
