Description

Three bedrooms, two full baths, hardwood floors throughout, and a fenced backyard big enough to actually use. 222 Sunset Drive is a brick Cape Cod for rent in the Westham area of Henrico County, Richmond VA 23229, minutes from the University of Richmond, the shops at Libbie and Grove, and the James River. Homes like this one do not sit long in this pocket.
Built in 1951 and sitting on a 0.41-acre lot with about 1,900 square feet of living space, this is a real house with real rooms. Not a flip, not a builder box. Solid brick, gorgeous hardwood floors running through it, central air and gas heat, and a layout that makes sense the second you walk in.
The main level opens into a living room anchored by a brick fireplace and flanked by built-in bookshelves, then flows straight into the sunroom, which is easily the best seat in the house. Ceiling fan, blinds on every window, and a door that opens right out to the back deck and yard. Morning coffee happens here. So does everything else.
Around the corner you will find the kitchen with electric stove, built-in microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator, a separate dining room for actual sit-down dinners, and a dedicated utility room with a full-size washer and dryer included. Yes, included. Also on the main level is a bedroom and a full bathroom, which means guests, a home office, or anyone who would rather skip the stairs has a landing spot without going up.
Upstairs you get two more bedrooms and the second full bathroom, plus a bonus room off the upstairs bedroom with a ceiling fan and its own window air conditioning unit for anyone who likes to sleep cold.
Outside is where this one separates itself. The large backyard is fully fenced, with a back deck off the sunroom and a detached storage shed for bikes, tools, and all the things that should not live in your dining room. Off-street parking comes with it, which is not a small thing anywhere near the University of Richmond.
The location does a lot of the work. You are a short hop from the shops and restaurants at Libbie and Grove, including Stuffy's, Grit Coffee, Gelati Celesti, Stella's Grocery, Libbie Market, and Cameo Cakery. The University of Richmond campus is right up the road. Huguenot Flatwater and the James River Park trails are close enough for a standing weekend habit, Willow Lawn covers the everyday errands, and Carytown and downtown Richmond are roughly fifteen minutes out. Quick access to I-64, 195, and the Powhite makes the rest of the region easy. This is Henrico County Public Schools.
MOVE IN FOR LESS: We proudly partner with Obligo to offer deposit-free living to qualified renters! Instead of paying a traditional cash security deposit upfront, approved renters can keep that cash in their pocket - dramatically lowering your out-of-pocket move-in costs. (Qualification through Obligo required; a traditional deposit option is also available.)
THINGS TO KNOW: Rent is $3,150 per month with a $3,150 security deposit. Residents are responsible for all utilities and lawncare. Small pets are accepted - all pets must complete a pet screening to determine any pet deposits and/or monthly pet fees. Landlord Liability Insurance is required, and we offer a convenient option that rolls coverage right into your lease payment.
Please note the fireplace is decorative and non-working.
Character, space, and a location people pay a premium to be near. Schedule your tour today before somebody else claims that sunroom.
