The former top executive of a publicly traded Richmond real estate firm has put his Windsor Farms home up for sale.
The 6,200-square-foot house at 207 Massie Road hit the market this month with an asking price of $3 million.
Re/Max Commonwealth agent Thomas Innes has the listing, representing sellers Thomas and Parke Messier.
Thomas Messier, known professionally as Tim Messier, is a former CEO and board chairman of Medalist Diversified REIT. He departed the firm last year as part of a management restructuring amid pressure from shareholders.
The brick colonial was built for the Messiers in the mid-1980s, when they purchased the 0.4-acre property for $85,000, Richmond records show. The property is currently assessed by the city at $1.8 million.
Totaling four bedrooms and five bathrooms, the three-level house was built by local builder John L. Stinson Jr. Inc. and added onto and renovated since. Architectural features includes 10-foot ceilings on the first and second floors. The house includes a paneled family room with fireplace and wet bar, a garden room and a second-floor primary suite and laundry room.
The slate-roofed house also includes a top-floor rec room with built-in work stations and an entertainment center, a three-level open stairwell with skylight and exterior walkways with multilevel bluestone patios. The property also has a garden shed and backs up to a neighborhood common area.
Innes’ listing states that it is priced “substantially below the cost to reproduce or to renovate an older home in today’s market.” He declined additional comment about the listing, which hit the market Sept. 7.
The listing adds to a hot high-end home market in the city’s West End, where a $9 million sale set a record in August and another home along the Cary Street Road corridor sold this month for $7.5 million.
