This home combines the convenience of the Short Pump area with the tranquility of a private retreat. Nestled at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac on a large pie-shaped lot, this classic two-story colonial blends timeless architecture with thoughtfully curated upgrades that enhance both form and function. Thoughtfully expanded over the years, the home lives significantly larger than its recorded square footage. The home’s most distinctive feature is its expanded primary suite, which extends into the attic level—accessible directly from the primary bedroom—to create a dramatic two-story owner’s retreat. Whether envisioned as a private sitting room, reading library, fitness space, home office, creative studio, or personal sanctuary, this flexible space is unlike anything found in a typical colonial. And in the backyard is a delightful surprise: a charming detached cottage ready to become whatever you imagine—a she shed, man cave, garden house, workshop, playhouse, artist’s studio, or peaceful escape. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated throughout, the property offers a seamless balance of traditional charm and modern comfort. Inviting interior spaces flow naturally into a resort-inspired backyard designed for both entertaining and everyday enjoyment. A spacious deck, covered gathering areas, mature landscaping, and the garden cottage create a setting that feels more like a private estate than a suburban residence. Beyond the property itself, the neighborhood encourages an active and connected lifestyle with sidewalks, bike paths, and a community playground at the entrance. Residents enjoy being just 1.5 miles from Deep Run Park, one of Henrico County’s premier recreation destinations. Spanning 165 acres, the park features wooded walking trails, athletic fields, recreation facilities, scenic open spaces, and year-round programming. Fitness enthusiasts will appreciate having two outstanding options nearby. Crunch Fitness is approximately one-half mile away—an easy stroll along neighborhood sidewalks. ACAC Fitness & Wellness Center is approximately 1.5 miles away and offers extensive fitness and family amenities, including indoor and outdoor pools, pickleball, wellness programs, and social activities. Recreational opportunities continue just minutes from home. Within approximately 2.2 miles is Canterbury Recreation Association, a private members-only swimming and racquet club, along with three of the region’s premier private golf clubs: Country Club of Virginia, The Dominion Club, and Richmond Country Club. Convenience is equally impressive. Shopping, dining, and everyday services are available throughout the surrounding community and at Short Pump Town Center, offering everything from boutique shops and local restaurants to nationally recognized retailers, entertainment, and professional services. The home is served by Henrico County Public Schools, including Pinchbeck Elementary School, Quioccasin Middle School, and Mills E. Godwin High School. Henrico County Public Schools is widely recognized for its strong academic programs, specialty center opportunities, and commitment to student achievement. Several churches representing multiple Christian denominations are located within a five-minute drive, providing convenient access to worship and community. Within approximately ten minutes, residents also have access to Jewish synagogues, Islamic centers, and additional faith communities, reflecting the diversity and inclusiveness of the surrounding area. Public transportation is conveniently accessible via the Gaskins Park & Ride and multiple Greater Richmond Transit Company bus stops along West Broad Street. This is more than a home. It is a lifestyle—offering the rare opportunity to enjoy the energy and convenience of one of the Richmond area’s most desirable locations while returning each day to the comfort, privacy, and serenity of your own personal retreat.
