About This Home
Welcome to 3531 Grove Avenue, a timeless treasure nestled in Richmond’s coveted Museum District. At this price, off-street parking makes this home an even rarer find. Light-filled and full of character, the home blends historic character with modern upgrades — while still leaving room for your personal touch. The major expenses have been taken care of: a new roof, replacement in-ground water line, upgraded windows, and updated electrical wiring. Fresh paint adds the final touch of move-in readiness.
Upstairs you'll find two spacious bedrooms, a third with a Juliet balcony, and a fourth flexible bonus room perfect for a home office, guest space, or cozy retreat. Both full bathrooms have been updated over the years, and the generous primary suite surprises with excellent closet space rarely found in homes of this vintage.
Out back, a private fenced yard invites you to relax, garden, or host friends. A graceful arched passageway connects the off-street parking to the backyard, adding a storybook charm reminiscent of The Secret Garden.
Just a short stroll from Carytown, the VMFA, and local cafes, this home puts you steps away from some of Richmond’s best. Experience the perfect blend of history and convenience at 3531 Grove Avenue.
