Vinita Hill Farm is one of those properties that rarely come to market, being owned by the same family since 1943.  Multiple parcels totaling roughly 35 congruent acres are located on a beautiful stretch of the James River in Goochland County, directly off River Road, combining open land, historic character, and stunning views of the James River.  Rich with history, Vinita Hill Farm was formerly serviced by a railroad stop called Vinita Station and is less than a mile from multiple historic properties along the River Road Corridor. The property combines three parcels, two of which are improved with existing homes - one a 4700 sq. ft. private rancher on the river's edge, and the other is the centerpiece estate home dating back to the early 1920s. The last parcel is over 27 acres of open field and is a parent tract with the potential for By-Right subdivision of up to 4 total lots (subject to County approval). County-provided water and sewer are not immediately available, but the future land use calls for low-density residential development. Whether you are looking for a legacy property, a family compound, or a smart investment with upside, Vinita Hill Farm offers a rare chance to own a meaningful piece of riverfront land in one of Central Virginia's most sought-after areas. Quick access to VA Rt. 288; Collegiate School and Sports Complex, Benedictine College Prep/St Gertrude School, St Catherine’s Sports Complex, Richmond Country Club, Country Club of Virginia/James River Course and University of Richmond are all a few minutes away.

ONLINE AUCTION: 1902 N 3rd Street is a rare opportunity to restore a large historic home in one of Richmond's steadily growing Northside neighborhoods. Offering approximately 2,868 square feet on a generous 9,099-square-foot lot, this property gives the next owner the size, footprint, and flexibility that is getting harder to find in the city. With a true three-level layout, including finished 3rd-floor space, the home offers substantial potential for the right investor, contractor, or buyer with vision. This property is in distressed condition and is being sold as a full renovation project. On 5/19/2026 a burst pipe caused a severe Category 3 water event that migrated from the second floor through the first, adding to water damage the home sustained years prior. Ceilings and walls on both levels have failed and are open to the framing, hardwood floors are buckled, carpet and pad are contaminated, and microbial growth is present throughout. Interior doors, trim, and cabinetry are affected. The home is currently uninhabitable and will require remediation plus full drywall, insulation, flooring, and finish replacement. Multiple remediation and rebuild quotes from Servpro and other contractors have been obtained and will be shared as needed. Photos reflect a home in rough shape throughout; buyers should expect significant repairs across the property. What makes this opportunity compelling is that the home has already shown what it can become. Previously renovated and sold in 2021, it is a strong reminder of the potential here with the right plan, budget, and execution. The square footage, three finished levels, lot size, and historic character create a solid foundation for a transformational project. Located in Northside, an area seeing ongoing reinvestment and rising interest from buyers and investors, 1902 N 3rd Street is the chance to bring a sizable Richmond home back to life in a neighborhood where restored properties stand out. Sold strictly as-is, where is. Inspection for informational purposes only.
