This beautifully renovated 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment at Preston Court is a perfect blend of historic architecture and luxury living in one of Charlottesville’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Originally built in 1928 and listed as a National Historic Landmark, the building has undergone a meticulous, multi-year renovation, preserving its classic elegance while introducing top-tier finishes and modern convenience. Located in the heart of the Rugby/Grady neighborhood, the apartment is just a short walk to the University of Virginia, the Medical Center, and the vibrant Corner District.

Inside, the apartment features tall ceilings, abundant natural light, and beautifully refinished oak hardwood floors throughout. The living room offers a wood-burning fireplace, creating a warm and inviting focal point. Just off the main living space is a large covered porch (Ground-level units offer private patios for added outdoor space and accessibility).

A $160 monthly utility fee includes fiber optic internet, water/sewer, and trash collection. Electricity and cable (if desired) are billed separately. A $600 non-refundable restoration fee is due at the lease start date, and a $750 security deposit is due within 30 days of lease signing.
