Property Description

Welcome to 3119 1st Avenue, a stunning historic all-brick home in Richmond’s sought-after North Highland Park community — where timeless architecture meets modern comfort and income potential. This beautifully restored 5-bedroom, 3-bath residence spans nearly 3,400 sq ft, offering exceptional space for multi-generational living, short-term rental use, or an elegant single-family lifestyle. Built in 1920, the home showcases original hardwood floors, stained glass windows, detailed woodwork, and six decorative fireplaces, preserving the charm and craftsmanship of the era. Step through the grand entry into soaring 10-foot ceilings that fill the home with light and volume. The main level features a first-floor bedroom and full bath — ideal for guests or aging-in-place flexibility. The kitchen and bathrooms have been tastefully updated with granite countertops, modern cabinetry, and contemporary fixtures, blending old-world charm with modern livability. Upstairs you’ll find spacious bedrooms, including a large primary suite and additional flex spaces perfect for an office, den, or studio. Outside, the property offers incredible curb appeal with a wrap-around front porch and a two-story rear deck overlooking a fenced backyard, ideal for entertaining, gardening, or relaxation. Recent upgrades include a brand-new roof (2025) and multiple system updates, providing peace of mind for the next owner. Whether you’re looking for your forever home or seeking an investment opportunity — this property checks every box. Its generous layout and zoning potential lend themselves to uses such as a group home, assisted living, co-living, or pad-split configuration (buyer to verify). Located just minutes from downtown Richmond, the Virginia Union corridor, and major interstates, 3119 1st Ave offers both convenience and character in one of the city’s fastest-revitalizing neighborhoods. Note: Although no known defects, Shed, Fireplaces, and Chimneys are sold "as is."
