Owned by the same family for almost 40 years, this three bedroom, two bathroom home in East Richmond is ready to be reimagined. With plenty of space for the garden of your dreams, the backyard is already home to persimmon, apple, orange and fig trees. Close to multiple parks, restaurants, coffee shops, I-80, and more, this home just needs some inspiration and freshening up to make it ready for its next owners.

Neighborhood

Founded and incorporated in 1905, Richmond has always been a city with an industrial background. During World War II Richmond, base of the Kaiser Shipyards, was mainly oriented to shipbuilding. At the end of the war, with several big-name businesses relocating to Richmond, Port Richmond became a major seaport, and now a significant part of Richmond’s economy. Beginning in the 1980s, in an effort to turn the abandoned shipyards into a residential area, Richmond shifted gears and began focusing on redeveloping the city into a residential and retail friendly environment. Now, Richmond is home to several shopping centers, a bustling downtown area, and beautiful parks, including Point Isabel and the Rosie the Riveter/World War II Home Front National Historical Park.
