reSTORATION RVA | 5525 Calvert Dr

5525 Calvert Dr

This beautiful little home located in Cavalier CT in Richmond, VA was built in 1947. Forward to 2021 and this mid-century house has been completely rebuild from the foundation up. Over the years it was home to many families but eventually the home began to show its age and was in desperate need of some restoration.

While many potential buyers would completely overlook this home, Claudia and Maria from Av Design Concepts LLC could see the diamond in the rough. They put the home under contract and got to work. They worked diligently to design a functional layout and lined up the contractors to help create their vision. The home ended up needing more than expected at first, however they were determined to create a finished home that they could be proud of.

This becomes obvious the moment you pull up to the house and see the care they have put into every detail. The builders have placed extra care and detail into the renovation of this house to ensure a long lasting and appealing home for the new owners. Maximized design efforts facilitate usage of all given space.

Updates included:

– A functional driveway design that allows owners the ability to drive through
– Access to a side door to enable quick unloading of groceries right into the kitchen
– New roof
– New siding
– New windows
– New HVAC system
– New amenities inside and outside
– Newly designed walk-through galley kitchen
– Newly created laundry room
– Large upgraded bathroom

With this beautiful new house and large yard, imagine all you can do! With almost half an acre, the yard can easily take on multiple endeavors such as a shed, barbecue pit, or even a pool. You can imagine having a family gathering, a cookout on the deck, or taking advantage of great weather. All of this adds up to a wonderfully restored home that can be enjoyed for many years to come.

“Coming from a construction background and having fully renovated and restored homes in the past, the move to Real Estate was a natural one for me.”
