My Mom was born a few streets over from Battersea in 1924. She and the neighborhood kids would play on the front lawn ... because nobody cared. Im not sure if anyone lived in the old mansion at that time but all the kids from that area of Petersburg played at Battersea. They have really been working hard to restore that place.

The old glass in the windows is beautiful

This is such an elegant property and I very much appreciated the tour of Battersea. I have to get down there to see that. Thank you, Chris !

[@VATravels]

Yes, great property and tour! You will enjoy the visit!

Thanks! Appreciate your diligence in going out there several times. This is beautiful, when I was in there years ago most of the interior was still in the restoration process- it’s incredible, and the furnishings are 👍

[@VATravels]

[@annmcgehee1728]

I have just found your video and I’m subscribing! Love touring old homes, my husband and I use to go different places but we don’t now that we’re older ☺️. So I like seeing them through other peoples eyes now! Loved it, I will be watching! This was beautiful and it had some gorgeous antiques! Thank you very much. I didn’t catch it, is it open to the public?

[@VATravels]

They are open on Saturdays. ..Thanks for subscribing!

Might be a stretch calling it a mansion, haha. Nice place...considering it's near Petersburg 😃. Great video-never heard of this place before.

[@VATravels]

Lol. Thanks! Great tour and great spot to visit.

Bet this place reeks of mold even with the partial renovation
