Tucked along one of Forest Hill’s most beloved streets, this home feels like a private retreat hidden among the trees. Renovated in 2020, it beautifully balances original character with thoughtful modern updates, creating spaces that feel elevated without losing their warmth or soul. Past the iron gate and winding brick walkway, you’re welcomed by a stained-glass front door, warm hardwood floors, and natural light pouring through every room. The living room centers around a brick fireplace and flows easily into the dining room and updated kitchen with marble countertops, custom finishes, a pantry, and a conveniently located half bath nearby. The sunroom is truly special. Wrapped in windows and surrounded by greenery, it feels like living in the trees.The kind of space that instantly slows you down. Upstairs offers 3 bedrooms and two full baths, including a spacious primary suite with a peaceful, tucked-away feel. The en-suite bath features marble finishes, a towel warmer, and the bedroom has its own dedicated HVAC split system for added comfort year-round. The walk-out basement adds even more flexibility with a laundry area, additional half bath, and a tucked-away shower that could be perfect for rinsing off muddy paws after afternoons at the river. Outside, the backyard unfolds like a hidden garden. Winding paths lead fire pit areas, tucked-away seating spaces, and a hot tub on the patio surrounded by lush landscaping. Every corner feels intentional, inviting you to unplug, gather, and stay awhile. Additional features include new Pella casement windows, a whole-home generator, humidifier, irrigation system, and easy access to the river trails and Forest Hill Park just beyond your backyard. And then there’s the neighborhood itself:one of Richmond’s most creative and connected communities — with favorites like Janet's Cafe, Stella's, Little Nickel, Outpost Richmond, The Veil Brewing Co., and Blanchard's Coffee just minutes away. A rare blend of nature, character, and city living in the heart of Forest Hill.
