Description

Welcome to 1223 Wilmer Ave, an immaculately renovated, classic 4 square style home, nestled atop a secluded hill on a half-acre plus lot. Very unique home/property--you will be hard pressed to find a legitimately comparable home in the Richmond market, particularly in this area. No detail was spared in this head-to-toe renovation. Aside from the heart pine floors, front door, and fireplace mantels that are original to when the home was built in 1937, everything else is brand new. Plumbing, electrical,...Welcome to 1223 Wilmer Ave, an immaculately renovated, classic 4 square style home, nestled atop a secluded hill on a half-acre plus lot. Very unique home/property--you will be hard pressed to find a legitimately comparable home in the Richmond market, particularly in this area. No detail was spared in this head-to-toe renovation. Aside from the heart pine floors, front door, and fireplace mantels that are original to when the home was built in 1937, everything else is brand new. Plumbing, electrical, roof, HVAC, etc, ALL BRAND NEW. From the moment you enter through the front door, the thought and attention to detail is evident in every corner of every room. On the first floor, the luxury kitchen serves as the centerpiece of the home, openly flowing between the foyer, dining room, sunroom, and rear access to back patio. Upstairs, you will find the primary bedroom with en-suite bath and three more generously sized bedrooms with closets and ceiling fans. Both the primary bathroom and full hall bathrooms are absolute stunners. Conveniently located between the highly desirable Bellevue and Lakeside neighborhoods, 1223 Wilmer sits just past the city limits in Henrico County. Unbeknownst even to the most knowledgeable Richmond neighborhood historians, Wilmer Avenue is truly an undercover gem with only 7 homes in total aligning the street. On top of that, 1223 Wilmer is undoubtedly the most private and secluded lot of the bunch. The houses on Wilmer Avenue are also filled with local history! At one time, the entire hill was a part of a property owned by Lewis Ginter. It was here that Ginter grew flowers and vegetables for his newly constructed Jefferson Hotel. Thus, the 7-home subdivision is appropriately known as Jefferson Gardens. The home that Ginter originally built, the 'Ginter House', still stands today on an adjacent lot on Wilmer. Not to mention, Clifton Guthrie, founder of the Golden Skillet franchise, lived at another home on the street. This is one home you have to see in person! No shoes inside,no exceptions!
