About this home
Tucked into Riverside Heights, this beautifully-maintained townhome delivers low-maintenance living with quick access to city conveniences and the James River Park System. A covered front porch welcomes you into a light-filled living room with high ceilings, hardwood floors, and recessed lighting. The open floor plan leads to a thoughtfully designed kitchen, featuring granite counters, a gas range, ample storage, and center island with breakfast bar. Just beyond, a dedicated dining area opens to the backyard, making it easy to host indoors and out. Upstairs, the primary bedroom is a true retreat with a generous walk-in closet, private bath with dual vanities, and a walk-in shower. Two more bedrooms, a full bath, and laundry room complete the level, offering flexibility for guests, a home office, or whatever your life needs. Outside, a fenced backyard faces a wooded lot for extra privacy, while a detached one-car garage and additional off-street parking add everyday convenience. Come see how easy city living can feel - schedule your showing today.
Cedarhurst, located between Forest Hill Park and the James River, is a residential and leafy Richmond neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and winding, tree-lined streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Forest Hill Ave and Westover Hills Blvd corridor, where coffee counters, small restaurants, and storefront studios set a steady, walk-and-chat rhythm. Architectural lines lean brick, low-slung, and porch-forward, with deep lots and mature canopy. Forest Hill Park’s lake loop and trails shape daily routines, while river overlooks add a quiet, outdoors-first backdrop. Local staples like Crossroads Coffee & Ice Cream, O’Toole’s Restaurant & Pub, and Studio Two Three anchor the area’s creative, lived-in feel.
