I promise you, as you walk up to this cozy, Northside cottage, with its rustic timber frame, expressive single dormer, and inviting front porch, a sense of nostalgia will overtake you, transporting you back to the days where neighbors gathered together on porches, kids played outside, and residents happily looked after one another. I'm glad to report that it still exists here on one of the most charming blocks in all of Richmond, Elmsmere Ave! The current owner has loved this home for 30 years but is ready to pass the torch on to the caring hands that can steward it for its next 30 years. Those hands should be yours! In addition, a super-functional and uniquely designed outbuilding rests in the back yard and offers versatility as an atelier, workshop, craft space...your imagination and needs are the only limits! An additional storage shed provides a place for all your tools so you don't have to cannibalize the main outbuilding. And do i need to tell you about the convenience, charm, and distinctiveness of the greater Ginter Park area? Local restaurants and small businesses are the rule. My personal favorite happens to be Stir Crazy Cafe, the place of thrilling memories, quality coffee and delicious eats. There's Dot's Back Inn featured on the Cooking Network, Demi's Mediterranean, and of course The Northside Grill to name just a few. Make your appointment now!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
