About this home

1887 Sheppard Town Road, a 34-acre Estate in Goochland Virginia - This property is truly what dreams are made of! An equestrian, or farm, enthusiast's paradise with over 20 acres of fenced pasture. The views as you drive down the paved driveway are some that only time can recreate! Outdoors highlights include multiple wells, established fencing, shop and storage building, horse/cattle watering systems, and automatic whole home Generac generator. From the moment you enter through the traditional Richmond six light front storm door, you can feel the warmth and inviting attributes of timelessness. The home features recently renovated kitchen spaces, bathrooms, and all new windows as of July 2025. The large kitchen island is the perfect central gathering space for all the family, kids, and friends! This newly renovated kitchen is the perfect blend of everyday use and entertainment including double ovens, gas cooking, and quartzite countertops. Just off the kitchen is the second "foyer" featuring the second set of steps to the upstairs, the entrance to the garage, pass through "pantry", rear entry from the back yard, and direct access to the mud room and side entrance. The designers left no stone unturned when it comes to the abundance of storage located in and around these kitchen spaces. The Florida Room is the heartbeat of the property as it looks over the gunite pool and pastures rolling down to the creek at the rear of the property. Unique, and giving it the truly timeless feel, are the four fireplaces throughout. The highly desired first floor primary suite is equipped with its own fireplace and separate entrance out to the rear deck and pool areas. The remaining four bedrooms are located upstairs and situated ideally for versatility of use. The finished basement space has ground level entry to the pool deck and a half bath that is convenient to exterior access. What stands out about the home is its ability to have the perfect blend of open concept, and yet separate distinct spaces throughout.
