1902 N 3rd Street is a rare opportunity to restore a large historic home in one of Richmond's steadily growing Northside neighborhoods. Offering approximately 2,868 square feet on a generous 9,099-square-foot lot, this property gives the next owner the kind of size, footprint, and flexibility that is getting harder to find in the city. With a true three-level layout, including finished 3rd-floor space, the home offers substantial potential for the right investor, contractor, or buyer with vision. This property is in distressed condition and is being sold as a full renovation project. Per seller-provided information, burst pipes have caused damage to the flooring, there is visible roof deterioration with a section of roof coating coming loose, and the photos reflect a home that is in generally rough shape throughout. Buyers should expect significant repairs, updates, and improvements across the property, making this best suited for someone prepared to take on a true rehab. What makes this opportunity especially compelling is that the home has already shown what it can become. Previously renovated and sold in 2021, this property offers a strong reminder of the potential that exists here with the right plan, budget, and execution. The square footage, three finished levels, lot size, and historic character create a strong foundation for a transformational project. Located in Northside, an area that continues to see ongoing reinvestment and rising interest from buyers and investors alike, 1902 N 3rd Street presents the chance to bring a sizable Richmond home back to life in a neighborhood where restored properties continue to stand out. For someone who can see past the current condition, the upside here is clear. Sold strictly as-is. Property is being sold strictly as-is, where is. Inspection for informational purposes only.
