About this home
Nestled in the heart of Westover Hills and just a short stroll from the James River and local favorites like Blanchard’s Coffee and Little Nickel, you’re going to love 5208 Caledonia Rd! This Craftsman-inspired home is full of architectural charm including a classic slate roof with snow cleats, expansive front porch with tapered columns…and the inside is even better! A central foyer welcomes you with oak hardwood floors, substantial millwork, crown molding, and a gorgeous staircase that anchors the home. To the right, the spacious living room features a gas fireplace, custom built-ins, and a charming cased opening leading to an additional sitting room. Across the foyer, the generously sized dining room connects to the kitchen through a butler’s pantry, complete with original-style cabinetry, glass-front displays, and additional counter space and storage. The beautifully updated kitchen features quality cabinetry with soft-close drawers and dovetail construction, leathered granite counters, tile backsplash, and a peninsula with barstool seating. Pendant and recessed lighting complement the space, while an adjoining breakfast nook surrounded by windows creates the perfect spot for morning coffee. At the rear of the home, an enormous sunroom offers another gathering space, complete with Eze-Breeze-style windows, a raised ceiling, and recessed lighting. A stylish powder room rounds out the first floor. Upstairs, the beautiful switchback staircase leads to four generously sized bedrooms, including the primary suite with a private bath, custom-built closet, and five gorgeous windows that fill the room with natural light. Three additional bedrooms share an updated hall bath with upscale finishes. A large unfinished basement provides abundant storage and plenty of flexibility. Outside, enjoy a lovely patio, beautifully maintained yard, mature landscaping, and the convenience of a two-car garage! With its timeless architecture, thoughtful updates, and unbeatable location, this is one you won’t want to miss!
Westover Hills, located between the James River and Forest Hill Park, is a residential and riverside Richmond neighborhood with a stone-arch bridge landmark and leafy, curving streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates at the Westover Hills Boulevard approach to the Nickel Bridge, where runners, cyclists, and dog-walkers stream past river overlooks. Pillars include Veil Brewing Co. (Forest Hill), Crossroads Coffee & Ice Cream, and the historic Byrd Theatre nearby in Carytown. Brick Tudors and mid-century ranches mix with porch-front cottages, giving blocks a settled, architectural rhythm. Trails and overlooks along the James River Park System shape daily routines, while Forest Hill Park’s lake and paths set a calm, outdoors-first cadence.
