Home Details for 5100 Forest Hill Avenue

A true Richmond treasure blending timeless character with exceptional versatility. Nestled in the heart of Westover Court, this beautifully updated Cape Cod includes a rare bonus: a fully equipped ADU/Cottage House in the rear—ideal for multi-generational living, a guest retreat, or an income-producing Airbnb. Step through the gated front yard into a sun-drenched foyer leading to a spacious dining room & inviting side porch, providing the perfect setting for gatherings & quiet moments alike. The main-level primary suite features hardwood floors, a walk-in closet, and spa-like en suite bath. Enjoy cooking in the stylish kitchen, featuring granite countertops, a gas range, an oversized pantry, and a convenient breakfast bar, perfect for casual meals. Just off the mudroom with direct outdoor access, a cozy family room with built-in shelving & gas fireplace overlooks the private, fenced backyard & expansive deck, perfect for entertaining or unwinding under the stars. Upstairs, you'll find three generous bedrooms with ample closet space, an additional full bath, and a second luxurious primary suite with dual closets & a private en suite bath. Solar panels on the dimensional roof help reduce utility costs & support sustainable living. The fully separate, solar-powered ADU features 2 bedrooms & one full bathroom, a private entrance, dedicated parking, and its own metered utilities, making it an excellent option for passive income or extended-stay guests. An additional half bath is located in the lower level of the garage, accessible from the garage space but not part of the ADU’s main living area. The 1100+ sq ft structure also features a climate-controlled garage space that offers excellent potential for an additional finished living area or flexible use. Located just minutes from Downtown & within walking distance of the James River, Buttermilk Trail, Forest Hill Park, Veil Brewing, Little Nickel, Blanchard’s Coffee & more, this home offers an unparalleled lifestyle in one of Richmond’s most vibrant neighborhoods.
