Welcome to Princeton Road in the heart of Bellevue, one of Richmond’s most sought after and walkable neighborhoods. Known for its tree lined streets and timeless architecture, Bellevue offers a true sense of community just moments from MacArthur Avenue’s restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and local favorites.
This classic 3,061 square foot ranch over basement with gleaming hardwood floors offers four bedrooms and three full baths across two expansive levels, blending historic character with thoughtful modern updates. The main level features formal living and dining rooms ideal for hosting, a dedicated home office for today’s work from home lifestyle, and an expansive family room designed for gathering and relaxing. The layout makes for an easy game night with friends and family while still offering quiet spaces to unwind.
And yes, let’s talk about the primary suite. In addition to the primary half bath, there is a cleverly tucked away non-conventional stand-up shower that adds flexibility and function. It is a charming nod to Bellevue’s character filled homes and offers a private bonus shower that longtime residents appreciate as part of the home’s personality. Recent improvements include a fully finished dry basement 2021 that expands the functional living space for entertainment, recreation, or multi-generational living. A newly designed luxury laundry room adds style and practicality. The dual zone HVAC system includes one unit installed in 2016 and a second unit newly installed in 2025 for year-round comfort and efficiency.
Set on nearly one third of an acre, the property offers rare off-street parking, a covered veranda, and a private footbridge overlooking a peaceful brook. Homes on Princeton Road rarely become available, making this a unique opportunity to own a spacious Bellevue ranch in one of Richmond’s most established neighborhoods.
