Tucked into the heart of Westover Hills, this storybook gem has been lovingly reimagined from top to bottom. Originally built in 1949, it still whispers its classic charm while shining with a fresh, modern spirit. Behind the scenes, everything is brand new—dual-zone HVAC, updated plumbing and electrical, and new windows—so you can simply settle in and enjoy. At the heart of the home, the kitchen invites gathering and lingering, with generous counter space, all-new appliances, and a dreamy walk-in butler’s pantry ready for everything from quiet mornings to lively dinner parties. Just beyond, a mudroom offers an easy transition to the detached 1.5-car garage and parking pad. Off the main living area, a versatile nook awaits—perfect for a cozy home office, or playroom. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a peaceful escape, complete with a walk-in closet, a deep soaking tub, an oversized shower, and sunlight that dances across the space. Two additional bedrooms share a full hall bath, while a charming half bath serves the main level. Downstairs, the finished walk-out basement opens the door to endless possibilities—whether you imagine a welcoming den, guest suite, home gym, or tucked-away office. And just beyond your doorstep, the neighborhood beckons: stroll to Forest Hill’s beloved breweries and restaurants, wander to the trails of the James River, or reach Maymont in just minutes. This is Westover Hills living—timeless, vibrant, and beautifully reborn.
