Nestled on a private hilltop, this handsome Mid-Century brick ranch offers breathtaking views of Riverside Drive and its lush natural surroundings. Located diagonally across from the entrance to the 42nd St James River Park System and Forest Hill Park, this home is an absolute dream for nature lovers—whether you're a bird watcher, bike rider, mountain climber, or a James River enthusiast, this location is for you! For the first time since its original owner, this home has been meticulously updated with a host of modern improvements, allowing the next owner to move in without lifting a finger. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 renovated bathrooms, an updated kitchen, refinished hardwood floors, new carpet in the family room, fresh paint throughout, new light fixtures, and fresh landscaping around the perimeter, every detail has been carefully considered.
The attached carport provides ample space for storing bikes, kayaks, or your vehicle. Inside, natural light floods the space, creating a bright, clean, and welcoming atmosphere. While you can enjoy the home exactly as it is, the prime location also offers endless possibilities for expansion. Add a second story or build out to the front to capture even more of the sweeping views of the treetops and James River Valley. This is a unique opportunity for anyone who appreciates the beauty of nature while being just minutes from downtown, local parks, the farmer's market, trendy restaurants, and the vibrant hotspots of the Westover Hills area. Don’t miss your chance to own this incredible property in an unbeatable location!
