About this House

Located on just under one acre, this beautifully maintained three bedroom, 2.5 bath ranch home offers timeless appeal with hardwood floors throughout and a thoughtfully designed layout. Mature trees provide stunning fall foliage, while open spaces offer room for fruit trees, gardens, and outdoor living. The property includes 12 blueberry bushes in cedar raised beds, extensive landscaping, young trees planted for the future, and wide arching sky views from both the front yard and back field, all with quiet, park-like privacy.

The spacious living room features a gas fireplace, while a bright tiled office with bay window creates an ideal workspace. A formal dining room and enclosed south-facing sunroom, renovated in 2023 with slate tile floors, built-in shelving, and French doors to a small deck, overlook the private backyard.

The huge kitchen was fully renovated in 2023 and designed for the serious chef, featuring quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, a 6-burner gas cooktop, electric double wall oven, eat-in area, coffee bar, and backyard access.

The primary suite includes an en-suite bath and closet, while two additional bedrooms offer generous storage. Bathrooms were updated in 2025 with new fixtures and high-efficiency toilets while preserving the classic Richmond black-and-white tile.

The finished basement (2026) adds flexible living space with recessed lighting, a wood-burning fireplace, and a striking reclaimed beam mantle, ideal as a recreation room, second living area, or potential 4th bedroom.

Additional highlights include solid brick construction with aluminum-wrapped trim, efficient radiator heat, whole-house fan ventilation, extra attic insulation (2016), roof and shutters replaced in 2016, most trim repainted in 2026, a one-car garage, paved driveway, and exceptional storage throughout. Conveniently located near I-64, I-95, and I-295 with easy access across the Richmond Metro area.
