Property Description

Welcome to 5524 Cottage Street in Lakeside! This classic cape cod offers all you could want and more in one of the most desirable locations in RVA and boasts tons of indoor and outdoor living space, original character and charm, and many updates throughout! The quaint front porch invites you to step up and into the home where you are greeted with original and refinished hardwood floors that span throughout most of the main level. The living room is just one of the cozy highlights of the home with a beautiful brick fireplace and side-light windows fitted with plantation shutters. The bright dining room is the perfect place to gather with family and friend for a meal and allows easy access to the kitchen that provides newly refinished butcher block counter tops and stainless steal appliances. The main level also offers 2 large bedrooms and a full bathroom that are perfect for a home office, nursery, and/or guest room! Upstairs you will find a large living space that leads to the primary bedroom equipped with an updated en-suite bathroom. This level of the home is the definition of private living space where you can retreat for a movie night or just some peace and quite. The inside of the home is worth every penny but don't skip out on all of the awesome outdoor living space with over .25 acre of green grass! The back deck is perfect for outdoor entertaining, grilling, and casual Spring/Summer/Fall nights and the back yard has been fenced in to keep all the chaos in one place and provide more of a private feel. Lakeside is a hot-spot in RVA due to its central location to highways, local eateries and breweries, and access to other fun parts of town! This home provides location, space, and so much more to be desired...so don't miss your chance to take a look! Updates to the home include: crawlspace vapor barrier and encapsulation (2021), HVAC (2021), roof (2021), and upstairs carpet (2023).
