Welcome to 4003 West Franklin, an iconic brick and slate Colonial nestled on one of West Franklin Street’s most prestigious blocks. Meticulously cared for and presented for the first time in over four decades, this residence offers a rare chance to own a true Richmond treasure. The formal living room is spacious yet warm, highlighted by a striking gas fireplace—perfect for hosting or relaxing—and just beyond, a luminous sunroom invites endless possibilities as a home office, creative studio, or play space. The formal dining room exudes sophistication with detailed custom millwork and classic crown moulding, flowing seamlessly into a kitchen that combines function and charm with a gas range, generous pantry, and cheerful breakfast nook. The third floor offers 657 square feet (not included in square footage) of space that can be used as a workout room, playroom, or private office, while the basement features a cozy, partially finished recreational room with classic wood paneling and a wood-burning fireplace—an ideal retreat for movie nights or gatherings. Outside, the backyard feels private and inviting, leading to a handsome detached brick and slate two-car garage with alley access. Refined architectural details and consistent 9-foot ceilings give the home a timeless sense of scale and style. Don’t miss this exceptional offering in one of Richmond’s most sought-after neighborhoods—just a short stroll to Stella’s, Pilates, and the exciting new American Lafayette restaurant coming in October.
