Designed by Richmond architect Robert Welton Stewart, the home reflects a deep appreciation for historic preservation, timeless materials, and Palladian style architecture. The beautifully landscaped acres are a product of Christie’s Fine Gardening. The main home offers 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, an airy loft ideal as an office or reading nook, and a bonus room that works equally well as a fourth bedroom or secondary living space. Inside, exposed Douglas fir beams, vaulted ceilings, and a mix of bluestone, hardwood, and tile floors give the home warmth and character. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the living spaces and primary suite with light and peaceful views. The living room offers a stone gas fireplace and built-ins, and beneath the hardwoods lies a sunken living room with hardwood and bluestone below. The renovated kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash, and a large island. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet, en-suite bath, and serene views. The 500 square foot detached pool house, ideal for guests, studio space, or multigenerational living offers a living room, kitchenette, bedroom, and full bath - bringing the total finished square footage to 3,375. The outdoor spaces are resort-caliber: a gunite pool with automatic cover, brick terraces, and an outdoor shower. The grounds provide four-season beauty with mature gardens, a wildflower meadow, and southwest-facing views. Additional features include a detached garage, covered carport, whole-house generator, and irrigation system. 30 owned solar panels cover ~90% of electrical usage. The property is surrounded by approximately 300 acres of protected conservation land with shared access to 10 acres along the James River on Sabot Island just a quick walk down a private road. 470 Dover Knoll offers privacy and serenity without sacrificing convenience to all things Richmond.
