Near West End Retreat with Historic Character, Guest Cottage and Walkable Lifestyle! This charming house is within walking distance to shops, restaurants and markets in the Libbie and Grove area. While the circa 1883 home retains original oak and pine floors and millwork; owners over the years have made significant changes to the rear of the house. You have a spacious family room with wet bar and wine cooler, modern kitchen with custom cabinets, granite counters and gas for cooking. The lower level has a huge family room or recreation room, half bathroom and this room opens to a two tiered, five hundred twenty-eight square foot deck. The tree top views from the rear windows and deck give a feeling you are in the Blue Ridge Mountains! The primary bedroom has private full bathroom, walk-in closet and other storage plus access to the rear balcony... perfect for sunbathing. The two other bedrooms share a hall bathroom. But wait, there is more! Just steps from the house is a quaint four hundred twenty-two square foot guest cottage with bedroom, full bathroom and a sitting room with sink, refrigerator and a two burner cooktop. The cottage is also perfect for an office or studio or just a fourth bedroom. There is room to park several cars in front of the house. Also you will want to see all the additional parking at the rear of the house off Hampton Hills Lane! Enjoy a stroll to the charming Libbie and Grove district, home to beloved local restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, markets and neighborhood shops. The home’s location offers convenient access to downtown Richmond, Short Pump, the James River and major commuting routes.
