Looking for the ideal downsize but don't want a condo? Want first-floor living but love the neighborhoods that seem to have only two-story homes? This might be for you.

Tucked into Richmond's coveted Sauer's Gardens neighborhood in the Near West End — steps from the same brick-and-boxwood charm that makes Monument Avenue's landmark condo buildings so desirable — this 1940 brick sister-flat duplex delivers the lock-and-leave lifestyle of a condo with none of the association rules or monthly dues.

The current owner occupies the main level as a private one-level retreat: 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a dedicated study, and its own laundry — true first-floor living, in a neighborhood built almost entirely of two-story homes. Upstairs, a fully separate luxury unit — 2 bedrooms, a full bath, a study, and its own laundry — is currently operated as a short-term rental (min 2 mos currently.) The upper unit's second bath is already roughed-in for conversion, giving a new owner a clear, low-lift path to add value and boost nightly rental rates.

Outside, the current owner completed a brand-new detached garage — two full bays plus a finished storage level above — alongside an additional off-street parking space, solving Richmond's biggest city-living headache: parking. A bluestone patio and thoughtfully designed hardscape turn the backyard into a low-maintenance garden oasis, built for entertaining, not weekend upkeep.

Whether you're searching for that rare first-floor-living opportunity without giving up your own front door to an HOA, a potentiall short-term rental investment near Richmond's top attractions, or simply a smarter way to downsize into a walkable, historic neighborhood, 4207 W Grace St offers rare flexibility on a 7,258 sq ft lot with 2,854 finished square feet.
