Welcome to 704 River Road
If you are someone who appreciates homes with history and you are looking for somewhere unique and beautiful with it's own personality and character, then welcome home! From the wood floors, to the crystal doorknobs and little niches throughout, charm abounds in this special home. And if you have dreamed of living on gorgeous River Road, in Brandon Heights, just down from historic Hilton Village, with it's small town feel, friendly neighbors, welcoming sidewalks and tree lined streets, now is your chance!
The first thing you'll notice as you approach the front of this happy home, is how much curb appeal the home possesses. The cheerful, one of a kind front door and leaded glass side lights welcome you into the sunny foyer of your new home. Just off the foyer is a large family room with lots of natural light, wood floors and a fireplace with built ins. Continue on and there is a private, wood paneled sunroom, off the family room, perfect for a home office, exercise space, yoga/meditation room, or sitting room in which to read and enjoy a cup of coffee. The family room opens to a beautiful, formal dining room. The way the family room and dining room spill into one another, make them great spaces for family dinners and holiday celebrations.
Down the hall on the way to the kitchen there is a niche, perfect for a wine/cocktail bar. The eat in kitchen, with conversation bar, has tons of cabinet and counter space. (Please note the cool, old ironing cabinet in the eat in space.) There is an adorable half bathroom, just off the eat in kitchen. Through the back door, is a cozy, screened in porch overlooking the private, quiet backyard.
Back down the hall toward the dining room and off to the left, there are two good sized bedrooms and a full bath on the first floor, perfect for guests, or in-laws to have their own private space to enjoy while visiting.
Up the stairs, you'll notice in the landing a perfect little space beside the stair rail, for a reading nook with bookshelves. Off the landing, in the back of the house is another guest room and a large storage room great for storing holiday decorations (or a TON of clothes and shoes...) On the front of the house upstairs, is a full bath and a HUGE master bedroom with dormer windows, through which you can enjoy views of the James River, across the street.
The majority of the roof was replaced thirteen years ago, with 30 year architectural shingles and the remaining back portion of the roof was replaced with the same shingles, three years ago. New dishwasher in the kitchen. New carpet on stairs, in upstairs hallway and master bedroom. New hot water heater. New moisture barrier in crawl space. Remaining original windows being replaced. Both full bathroom floors being replaced. House has been freshly painted, inside and out. There is a home security system and the home comes with a one year home warranty.
