About this House
Located just minutes from Forest Hill Park and Downtown Richmond, this beautifully renovated Cottage/Bungalow blends classic character with thoughtful modern updates. A stunning wraparound porch welcomes you home and provides the perfect spot to relax or entertain. Major improvements completed in 2022 include partial vinyl siding, vinyl windows and extensive interior renovations. Inside, 9+ ft ceilings and luxury vinyl plank flooring complement the open, light-filled floor plan. The renovated kitchen features white cabinetry, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, including refrigerator and range new in 2022. The spacious Primary Suite is a true private retreat with abundant natural light, walk-in closet and ensuite bath featuring a double vanity with marble countertops, tile flooring and an impressive oversized tiled shower. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility for family, guests or a home office. The guest bath was updated in 2022 with a new vanity, lighting and subway-tiled shower. A private laundry room with washer and dryer new in 2022 completes the interior. Outside is where this property really stands apart! The custom detached “Garage-Mahal,” completed in 2024 at a cost of more than $80,000, is insulated and finished with wallboard and its own A/C—ideal for a workshop, studio, home gym, hobby space or exceptional conditioned storage. In 2025, approximately $7,800 was invested to grind out old mortar and professionally repair and repoint the foundation brick pillars. Enjoy private off-street parking and an incredibly convenient location near Crossroads Coffee, Forest Hill Park, Manchester, Downtown Richmond and VCU. Charming, updated and truly move-in ready!
