A Traditional yet Quirky Old Home in Virginia

Based in Charlottesville, Virginia, designer Anne Altizer‘s trademark look is elegant and classic. She loves creating personalized interiors that stand the test of time. Case in point… her own home, built in 1931 by the celebrated architect Edmund S. Campbell, and loaded with charm. Traditional yet quirky, the windows are different shapes and sizes, there are roofs leaning random directions, and chimneys pop up from various locations.  To renovate and expand the home, Anne and her husband worked with architect Enoch Synder who described the home’s non-specific style as a blend of Old European, Continental, and Southern influences. Maintaining the home’s quirky charm was crucial to the project, and Anne’s beautiful, layered interiors create a gracious and welcoming environment. The surrounding gardens were already in place when the Altizers purchased the home, but Anne worked with landscape architect Rachel Lilly to further enhance their beauty. This home is truly an oasis!

    • I’m going to have to look for it! I lived in Charlottesville 12 years ago, and just returned to Virginia a year ago to Harrisonburg. Thinking she will be a good resource for some decor advice – I usually do all my own decorating but occasionally have some dilemmas that may benefit from professional guidance.

  1. A classic traditional home with a nod to European sensibilities decorated in classic new traditional taste. It doesn’t look too overly decorated, it looks comfortable and relaxing, a lovely place to call home. How fortunate to have that mature landscaping. Anyone would be proud to call this home.

  2. Just love the beautiful and calm sophistication of Anne Altizer’s home. One of your very best blog posts. Thank you.

  3. We love our Enoch Snyder designed and built home! Enoch created a modern addition to our rustic log cabin, and it came together in themes wonderful way. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home.

  4. Gorgeous! I’m about to go on a ‘pinning’ spree. Thank you for sharing this lovely home and property.

  5. I absolutely love this home. So delightful in every way. The color scheme, the indoor outdoor play in every room, the furniture.

  6. I love this post! I have been looking for a small gold chandelier like the one in the last few pictures of the bathroom. Do you have any idea where I could find one?
