Welcome to 1217 Leicester Road in the quaint neighborhood of Cedarhurst in Forest View Heights! This well-maintained ranch house sits on a flat .51 acre lot in a park-like setting with a large, fenced rear yard for privacy. As you enter the house, there is a large living room with lots of natural light. The dining room is large enough for a table for six of your family/friends at the holidays. There are hardwood floors throughout most of the home with carpeting in the family room. The kitchen opens into the family room with a rear door leading to the backyard and deck. There are 3 bedrooms, one of which was used as an office or flex space. The current owner added a room off of the rear with a half bath (and vaulted ceiling!) which they used as the primary bedroom. French doors open onto the rear deck where you can enjoy your morning coffee. A partially finished basement adds extra space for storage and the washer/dryer (which conveys).
This is such a convenient location with close proximity to Willow Oaks Country Club, Veil Brewing, The Nickel, Forest Hill Park, Belle Isle and Maymont, with easy access to downtown RVA.
