About This Home

Welcome to 3531 Grove Avenue – a classic Museum District gem that beautifully blends historic charm with modern comfort. This light-filled home showcases timeless features, including original hardwood floors, elegant millwork, and tall ceilings throughout. Recent updates include fresh paint and thoughtful personal touches, while major improvements behind the scenes—including a new main roof and a replaced in-ground water supply line—provide peace of mind and added value.

Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, a third bedroom with a charming Juliet balcony, plus a versatile bonus room ideal as an office or fourth bedroom. Two full bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated with modern finishes, and the spacious primary bedroom offers excellent closet space for a home of this age.

Step outside to your private fenced backyard, perfect for relaxing, gardening, or entertaining. The arched entryway between the off-street parking and the yard evokes The Secret Garden, inviting you to escape into your own peaceful retreat after a busy day.

All of this, just steps from Carytown’s shops and dining, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and everything that makes the Museum District one of Richmond’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
