About this home
Welcome to Westover Hills, a beloved Richmond neighborhood where tree-lined streets and close-knit community create a timeless sense of home. This classic Colonial offers refinished hardwood floors (2026), charming original wood doors and professionally painted interior (2026), adding a bright refreshed feel. The living room offers plenty of space, a brick FP and easy access to the side porch. A dining room, updated half bath and kitchen, featuring a peninsula counter, ideal for morning coffee, as well as access to the covered rear porch round out the first level. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, an updated bath, and a walk-up attic that is floored, ready for future possibilities.

Convenient perks include Gutter Helmet install (2024), fenced rear yard and a detached garage with newer roof (2023), for off street parking. A true highlight of this property is the location! Convenient access to highways combined with walkability to nearby eateries, local Farmers Market, trails, Forest Hill Park and the James River offers a blend of charm, outdoor recreation and city life that truly makes it shine.
