Property Description

Britton's Hill is the sort of neighborhood people tend to hear about from a friend, so tucked away that many pass it by. Five minutes from Libbie Mill and Willow Lawn, ten from Scott's Addition and the Fan, it is as near to the city's pleasures as one can get while remaining in Henrico County. The renovation at 4817 Coleman Road was guided by a discerning eye and a deep respect for its original bones. Decades of wallpaper have been stripped away, every wall, door and piece of trim freshly painted, and the maple floors professionally refinished. The kitchen was fully reworked and fitted with new cabinetry, leathered granite countertops, new fixtures, and appliances. The baths have new vanities, fixtures and fans. The practical matters have been seen to as well: recently replaced windows, a new flat roof on the addition, and a new water heater this year. Elsewhere, the original home is very much itself: fine millwork, a wood-burning fireplace with its chimney newly serviced for the colder months, and a sun room, its floor laid in brick, that catches the light. The result is a modern vintage house in the truest sense, with the charm of an older home and all the comforts of a newer one. The floor plan is a generous- there are two primary suite opportunities, each with its own en suite bath, one on the first floor and one on the second. On the second floor, a wood-paneled room functions currently as the library but could just as easily be a bedroom. Above, a third-floor room can be a study, a playroom, or a guest area. Outside, the lot is large and beautifully tended, with a back yard worth lingering in. A garage, a rarity in Britton's Hill, completes the house. It would be easy to call Britton's Hill one of Richmond's well-kept secrets, and 4817 Coleman Road is your invitation to discover it.
