3627 Benton Ave Richmond, VA 23222

Beautiful completely renovated classic American Four-square on a very large corner lot! Another historic neighborhood minutes to the east of downtown, Fairfield gives us 3627 Benton Ave, which thoughtfully retains its historic charm while offering totally modern amenities and almost no maintenance for the foreseeable future! Step inside and be greeted by a bright, airy foyer. The formal living room and dining room offer pleasing, classical architectural symmetry and lots of natural light. The kitchen! Expansive with gleaming granite countertops. Brand new cabinets. Stainless steel appliances, new tile floor, and extremely tasteful modern-yet timeless fixtures. Pay attention to the kitchen sink. Rear area of the kitchen offers more than ample space for a casual breakfast area as well. Houseguests (and hosts) will appreciate the full bath on the first level...all-too-rare in the more storied neighborhoods in town. Upstairs awaits a very large primary bedroom with windows on two sides, fresh paint, modern ceiling lighting, and closet space. Additional two bedrooms also offer plenty of light and the third might make an ideal studio or office...Speaking of which- while unfinished- the full basement offers endless possibilities for a shop, studio, or more finished living space. Much of the original, inimitable woodwork remains throughout the home, yet new residents will benefit from and live in the comforts of entirely new construction. New asphalt shingled roof, new dual-zone HVAC. New electric. New plumbing. New hot water heater. New energy efficient replacement windows. Front Porch-sitters will love to while away casual evenings there- more than enough space for a large sectional or a few rocking chairs... while those with an appetite for cookouts, a little privacy and huge fenced backyards will delight out back.
This charming home was not just given a superficial facelift. It has been completely reconstructed with taste and care.
