About This Home
A classic white brick ranch outside and an enchanting jewel box inside, 8717 Avalon Drive has been transformed with a glamorous eye and a love of all things light, bright, pretty, and polished. Set on a beautiful, expansive lawn, this delightful home offers a fresh and stylish take on Richmond living. Step inside to a soft neutral palette and abundant light, creating a serene and sophisticated backdrop that feels both cheerful and chic. The renovated kitchen features creamy cabinetry, light granite countertops, and a white stone backsplash, all selected to keep the space feeling fresh and inviting. Light laminate flooring carries that luminous look through much of the home, while the original hardwood floors remain beneath. The primary bedroom, with plush white carpeting underfoot, is a soft, dreamy retreat with a decidedly glamorous feel. The second bedroom is currently styled as a fabulous full-scale dressing room, yet easily transitions back to a bedroom. The large third bedroom provides even more versatility for guests, a home office, studio, or whatever suits your lifestyle. The full bath is a charming nod to classic Richmond design, retaining the original black-and-white tile. And the outdoor spaces do not disappoint. A sweet screened porch offers the perfect spot for morning coffee, an afternoon read, or an evening cocktail, while the spacious deck invites grilling, entertaining, dining under the stars, or soaking up a sunny afternoon. The yard is lush, green, spacious, and wonderfully park-like, creating a gorgeous setting for garden parties, pets, play, flowers, or quiet weekends at home. The large shed makes a perfect workshop, outfitted with a workbench and full power. A paved driveway adds everyday convenience. Polished without taking itself too seriously, 8717 Avalon feels cared for, dressed up, and ready to have a little fun. For the buyer who believes home should be more than a collection of rooms, this one delivers a whole mood. It's one very special place to call home.
