Property Description

Thoughtfully updated while preserving its timeless character, this classic Richmond row home is nestled on a quiet street in the heart of the Museum District, just steps from neighborhood restaurants, parks, and shops. A beautifully landscaped front garden and inviting porch create exceptional curb appeal and the perfect place to relax. Inside, original heart pine floors, Craftsman built-ins, decorative columns, pocket doors, and the original fireplace mantel showcase the home’s historic charm. The dining room was thoughtfully redesigned in 2025 with custom millwork and a restored antique cabinet, while hidden custom storage seamlessly blends into the architectural details. The beautifully renovated kitchen (2023) offers custom cabinetry, soapstone countertops, farmhouse sink, paneled dishwasher, new range and microwave, solid brass Rejuvenation hardware, and an exceptionally rare walk-in pantry. From the kitchen, step onto the rear porch overlooking a private backyard retreat with deck, brick patio, mature landscaping, ivy-covered pergola, and brick privacy wall—an ideal setting for entertaining. Upstairs are two spacious bedrooms, each with rare double closets, a third bedroom with access to the original sleeping porch now serving as a charming three-season sunroom, an updated full bath, and built-in linen storage. The finished basement provides outstanding flexibility with space for a family room, home office, guest accommodations, laundry, a half bath, and abundant storage. Recent improvements include refinished first-floor heart pine floors (2023), updated bath (2021), extensive kitchen renovation (2023), redesigned dining room (2025), and 2026 exterior improvements including a new porch roof, soffit, fascia, front gutters, and cedar trim. A rare opportunity to own a meticulously maintained Museum District home that perfectly blends historic character, thoughtful updates, abundant storage, and exceptional outdoor living.
