Historic charm meets the space and flexibility you've been searching for in this distinctive 2,072-square-foot Forest Hill home. Original hardwood floors, graceful archways, French doors, substantial trimwork, a brick fireplace and classic built-ins preserve the character of the home, while a thoughtfully designed rear addition provides something rarely found in a property of this era: four bedrooms, two separate living spaces and a truly spacious primary suite. The main level offers an easy, versatile flow with a formal dining room, a welcoming fireside living room and a bright second living space overlooking the backyard. The kitchen provides generous cabinetry and counter space, a gas range, breakfast-bar seating and a tucked-away workspace perfect for homework or working from home. A screened side porch offers a quiet spot to enjoy the neighborhood from morning coffee through evening cocktails - that iconic Richmond lifestyle. Upstairs, the expansive primary bedroom feels like a private retreat, with a vaulted ceiling and oversized windows framing leafy backyard views. The adjoining bath features a jetted tub, separate tiled shower, abundant natural light and a large walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms and a hall bath provide the flexibility that makes this four-bedroom layout such a rare find. The outdoor living is impressive. A huge multi-level deck extends across the rear of the home and leads to a shaded lower entertaining area within the fenced, green backyard. Behind the house, extensive off-street parking and a covered carport-style garage offer exceptional convenience. The full-height, walk-out basement adds an extraordinary amount of storage, along with laundry and space for hobbies, tools or a workshop. The convenient location also has the best lifestyle perks: The Little Nickel is a short walk away, making dinner and drinks wonderfully easy. This is the rare tradeoff of generous space, historic character and a truly walkable setting.
