Set on 2.27 acres, this meticulously remodeled 3BR/3BA home is designed for the buyer who wants to spend their weekends relaxing on the porch, not chasing contractors. While it vibrates with historical authenticity—boasting original trim, vintage hardware, and gorgeous heart-pine floors—it lives like luxury. THE HEAVY LIFTING IS DONE: Enjoy total peace of mind with a complete systems renovation. This includes whole-house plumbing, all-new electrical, new HVAC and ductwork, replacement windows, a new artesian well, a new roof, a new French drain system, and a pristine, newly created, lighted crawlspace with a vapor barrier. INTERIOR HIGHLIGHTS: A bright, modern kitchen features granite countertops and a generous island perfect for gathering. The main-level primary ensuite serves as a true sanctuary, complete with a deep, claw-footed soaking tub. Throughout the home, generous room scales and wide hallways give the entire space an incredible sense of breathing room. THE GROUNDS AND OUTBUILDINGS: Features a massive 24x24x12 metal pole barn/garage for the hobbyist, mechanic, or boat owner. You will also find a fenced side yard, established garden, fire pit, mature landscaping, and an extra outbuilding ready to become your art studio or workshop. THE BEST PART: Chase the sunset from your front porch in a setting that feels worlds away, yet you are less than 15 minutes from your morning Starbucks, local eateries, the marina, and VCU Health. It is an easy commute to Richmond, Fredericksburg, or Dahlgren—or simply work from home with seamless high-speed internet. Historical remodels of this caliber, completely turnkey and at this price point, are practically unheard of. Stop dreaming and start living. Schedule your private tour today!
