Don’t miss this classic Richmond brick and slate colonial on beautiful West Franklin St. in Malvern Gardens, right in the heart of the Near West End and just a stone’s throw from Stella’s Restaurant and Grocery on Lafayette. Gracious rooms, and a lovely floor plan for entertaining, with five spacious bedrooms and 2.5 beautifully updated bathrooms. A generous entryway welcomes you into a large living area with built ins and a wood burning fireplace that flows nicely into the sunroom with patio access that can be used as playroom or office. The inviting dining room flows nicely into the eat-in kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, ample cabinet space, a walk-in pantry, and a sunny breakfast nook. Heading upstairs, you will find four nicely proportioned bedrooms, including the primary bedroom with an attached bath. The hall bath was beautifully renovated with a custom vanity in 2021. Don’t miss the finished third floor, boasting hardwoods and recessed lighting and new windows throughout. On the third floor you will find space for an office, two huge walk-in closets with custom details, and a fifth bedroom - the plumbing is also ready for a 4th bathroom! The basement is partially finished with built-ins and a rec room area, and the unfinished space provides ample storage and is ready for another half bath. A brick two car garage, a brick patio, and a large backyard top it all off! Perfect for you, a beautiful home in an amazing location!
