Discover one of the best kept secrets in the heart of the city. Across the street from the Country Club of Virginia, Rio Vista Lane takes you to a storybook sanctuary tucked away on a secluded, tranquil haven just minutes from Richmond’s most coveted destinations. This 1938 brick Cape Cod has been masterfully reimagined, blending its original architectural soul with high-end modern renovations. The heart of the home is a grand, custom designed chef’s kitchen featuring a full build-out with custom cabinetry, premium countertops and designer lighting. An abundance of natural light and private breathtaking views seamlessly connects this culinary space to the outdoors, perfect for modern entertaining where you can either dine in the English basement with exposed brick and beamed ceilings or the expansive rear terrace with koi pond, overlooking a peaceful lush (low maintenance) landscape under the stars.
The home offers unparalleled luxury with two fully renovated primary baths. The first main primary en suite offers a spa-like haven with a new vanity, custom tile work, and designer fixtures. The secondary primary en suite features a modern walk-in shower with custom glass doors, subway and marble tile design and new vanity. The top floor shows off the remaining two bedrooms. One with an attached ensuite and the other next to a full bathroom.
Look forward to coming home to your own nature retreat in the city with walking distance to Libbie and Grove shops, CCV, or a 3 minute drive to the famous Cary Street in the Fan.
