Older home with lots of character, walking distance to downtown Richmond. Very convenient location, close to anything you want. Located about 2 miles off of I-75. The house has 2 bedrooms, and 1 bath. There is a queen size bed in both of the bedrooms, and a futon in the living room. If you like the outdoors, we have a side porch with a swing, and a sitting area in the yard with a fish pond. The driveway goes behind the house for parking and is quite narrow, which can be a challenge for large vehicles. There is plenty of room in the driveway out front for parking if you are unable to pass through, which is also safe. The driveway side of the backyard is open, so the yard is not fully fenced.

This is our second time staying at this property. We feel very comfortable there and will be back next month visiting our family.Very clean and has everything we need to feel like home.
Very quaint, home away from home. Owner has attention to detail. All the little extras makes the difference. We felt very comfortable from the minute we walked in. We will be back!
House had everything we needed the three of us were each able to sew a quilt top. We set up our machines in dining room and sewed to our heart’s content.
Beautiful older home, well maintained, had everything you could possibly need. Only problem I had was the size of my vehicle, the driveway wasn't made for a 1 ton long bed truck. We managed. Thank you.
It was a wonderful experience. The home was very cozy for it being an older home. Downtown was beautiful and Buc-ee’s was fun. There was lots to do and see. Thank you for the drinks and snacks, it was greatly appreciated.
The house was clean, had snacks in case guests arrived late and needed food, and the host communicated the check in process very well. We were pleased with our stay. We left a bag of sweets out overnight and were greeted with ants the next morning, but that was our fault. We kept everything in the fridge after that and had no other issues. The street is busy, but we enjoyed an evening relaxing on the porch.
It is so refreshing and wonderful when you book a place and find it to be above your expectations. This home was fantastic. An older home with personality and flair and an owner who obviously wants their guests to be satisfied. The beds were both very comfortable, the shower had plenty of hot water and plenty of pressure, the toilet paper and paper towels were not your typical see-through tissue that has begun to be the norm in many rentals. Floor and ceiling fans in both rooms, plenty of towels and no notes telling how much you would expect to pay if you stained one! How unusual! This host also leaves snacks and extra water, plenty of coffee (both regular and decaf) filters, sugar and even milk in the fridge. It’s thrilling to find an actual coffee pot instead of a Keurig, as I tend to drink more than one cup and generally run out in the other places I’ve stayed. The side porch is a sweet little oasis and there’s even a porch swing. I stayed the first two nights alone and felt completely safe and comfortable. This isn’t the most beautiful, swanky or most modern place I’ve stayed in, but is now truly one of my favorites. This host just does so many lovely things to make their guests feel special. The home was a short distance away from EKU’s Gifford Theater (the reason for our trip) and we had no issues with the driveway or parking. Highly recommended.
We were lucky enough to find this home on VRBO for our trip to Richmond. The home is very well cared for and the owners wonderful to deal with. We most definitely hope to stay here again in the near future.
Perfect little home, actually bigger than it looked in the photos. Very clean and tidy in a quiet neighborhood at a great price. I highly recommend this place.
WE loved the property. It was celan and had everything we needed. WE loved walking to the downtown every morning and getting coffee and breakfast.
WE would stay again,
Andrea
