About 1715 Elmsmere Ave

Ok, let’s be honest — the word “charm” is way overused in real estate descriptions. But we have to use it here because this house is so charming it’s a total charm offensive. As soon as you step inside (or even glance at the photos) the charm begins. Yes, the house is old — built in 1933 — and that’s part of the charm. It still has most of the original features: hardwood floors, black-and-white tile, craftsman trim, glass doorknobs, and even some original lights that turn the charm all the way up. This home has all the elements new houses dream of emulating. Unlike many older homes, this one has a huge, open living room. You can use it as one big space or divide it into two areas — maybe an office or reading nook. Through the double doors, a screened porch lets you enjoy the outdoors without the bugs. Getting charmed yet? The living room flows to a separate dining area. If you don’t need a formal dining room, use it however you like — playroom, office, studio, whatever fits your life. The first floor also includes two bedrooms and a full bathroom that connects to both. The bathroom is classic vintage perfection: black-and-white tile covering the floor and halfway up the walls, even surrounding the shower. They definitely don’t build them like this anymore. The kitchen continues the charm with arched openings, checkered flooring, white cabinets, white appliances, and tons of storage. There’s a spice cabinet (formerly an ironing board nook — because who irons anymore?), a glass-front display cabinet, and a cute little light you definitely can’t find at Lowe’s. From the kitchen, step out to the covered back porch and fenced yard — the perfect size, with mature trees, shade, and a storage shed. Head upstairs to the finished second floor, where the cozy wood floors and unique layout give even more personality. While there’s no official closet, there’s plenty of space for a bedroom and office combo. Plus, access to unfinished attic space gives you extra storage — even your stuff gets to live the charmed life. Downstairs, the basement adds more function — and a little basementy charm — with a half bath, washer and dryer (included as-is), utility sink, and plenty of storage. Finally, let’s talk about the neighborhood. Rosedale is one of Richmond’s hidden gems — full of charm and convenience. You’re close to all the hip new restaurants, shopping, downtown, and the new Diamond District. Who isn’t charmed by diamonds? The previous tenants loved it so much they stayed for 8 years, and once this home is rented again, it’s likely to be off the market for a long time.

1715 Elmsmere Ave is located in the Rosedale Neighborhood and 23227 Zip code of Richmond, VA.
