Property Description
Classic Charm Meets Modern Comfort in Coveted Westover Hills! This deceptively spacious brick Cape Cod blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates thanks to a seamless 2011 two-story addition by renowned local builder Tenserhaus Construction. Nestled on a picturesque lot with mature landscaping and a slate roof on the original home, this property offers the best of both worlds: the charm you expect in Westover Hills and the modern comforts today's buyers crave. Inside, the gourmet kitchen flows beautifully into the bright family room and includes a practical mudroom/drop zone near the back entry. The formal living and dining rooms feature original moldings and a wood-burning fireplace, while a charming screened porch on the side invites year-round enjoyment. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite stuns with a vaulted ceiling, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-like bath. Three additional bedrooms are generously sized with large closets.
Tucked just beyond the main house, the Garden Studio is fully finished with HVAC and a fireplace—ideal for a home office, creative studio, gym, or peaceful retreat. A detached garage offers additional workshop space and walk-up attic storage. Outdoor living is just as special with lush gardens, meandering paths, and a stone patio. Recent updates by meticulous owners include:2-zone Bosch HVAC (2022), water filtration system (2023), new copper flashing, roof repairs, new gutters and downspouts on garage (2024), refinished wood floors, new light fixtures, kitchen upgrades, renovated baths, fresh interior and exterior paint, energy-efficiency improvements, hardwired 6500W portable generator (2022), attic fan and water heater element replaced (2022–23), rain garden installation and much more. With off-street parking for 2+ cars via the alley and a location walkable to local dining, the library, parks, and the James River, this home checks every box. Quick access to bridges, highways, and downtown RVA—less than 10 minutes away! Hurry for this one!
