Listing details
Country mouse & City mouse can both have it all, in one of Richmond's friendliest and sought after neighborhoods! Enjoy 1920?s charm and architectural features with modern conveniences while living in a wildflower meadow at the edge of the woods, and still have an easy walk/bike ride to the best of RVA. From the wraparound front porch (literally a veranda!) you enter into a spacious living room with gas FP, through a formal dining room, to an updated kitchen (2021), adjoining morning room (art studio, office, den, playroom, sitting room, home gym) with three walls of windows with views of the backyard and garden. Adjacent to the kitchen is a mudroom with built-in storage bench and separate half-bath, as well as the entrance to the attached garage (2020 addition). Upstairs the two spacious bedrooms share a full bath with shower and claw foot tub; the primary suite with sitting area (2020 addition above the garage), multiple closets, and gorgeous en suite bath with tiled shower. The yard has been lovingly cultivated as a natural haven for birds, butterflies, and bees, and is filled with more than 15 different native and pollinator-friendly species. Plenty of room for chickens! New backyard fence installed in 2024. New Hardiplank 2019, tankless hot water heater 2020 (instant hot water), two circuit breakers in garage for possible future EV charging station or a workshop. Sellers are sad to leave but more excited about where they are going! You are invited to find the secret patio, the hidden door, and the homage to It's a Wonderful Life that is hidden in plain sight. Walking distance to Forest Hill Park, Outpost, Crossroads Coffee, Little Nickel, The Veil Brewing, Charm School, WPA Bakery, and an easy bike commute to downtown and VCU, as well as many public/private schools.
