A slightly cooler month for the area’s high-end housing market still saw a number of seven-figure deals, the top three of them coming in above list price.
Leading the list for September was 200 Walsing Drive, a 5,400-square-foot house in western Henrico’s Dorset Woods neighborhood that sold Sept. 30 for $2.3 million.
Debbie Gibbs with The Steele Group | Sotheby’s International Realty had the listing, which hit the market in mid-August at just under $2.2 million and went under contract 10 days later.
One of two family rooms in the home features a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams.
The sellers were Bill and Barbara Tavenner, who had owned the house since 2013, when they purchased it for $905,000. Bill Tavenner is a senior director of strategic accounts at plumbing and HVAC distributor Ferguson Enterprises.
Property records list the buyers as Elizabeth and Ian Moriarty. Ian is an enterprise account manager at tech firm Cisco. Elizabeth is in enterprise sales at cybersecurity firm Abnormal Security.
They were represented in the deal by Philip Innes with Re/Max Commonwealth. Innes and Gibbs did not return calls Thursday seeking comment.
The half-acre property on a corner lot includes a stone patio.
Totaling five bedrooms and six bathrooms, the two-story Cape Cod was built in 1983 and has since been renovated. It has five fireplaces, including one in the owners’ suite; a kitchen with two dishwashers, a steam oven and warming drawer; two family rooms, one with a beverage fridge; and an upstairs rec room.
The half-acre, corner-lot property also includes a stone patio and two-car attached garage. The lot is located between Collegiate School and the Country Club of Virginia’s James River Course.
Henrico has assessed the property at $1.45 million.
The No. 2 sale for September was 7301 Riverside Drive, a 4,200-square-foot new-construction home that sold Sept. 11 for $1.9 million, above its April list price of $1.87 million. The contemporary-style house by Center Creek Homes was put under contract the day after it was listed.
Long & Foster agents Ellie Boyd and Marianne Donahue co-listed the home for Center Creek. The buyer’s agent was Meredith Hopper with Redfin Corp.
The month’s third-priciest sale, according to the Central Virginia Regional Multiple Listing Service, was 223 Randolph Square Lane in Goochland. The 5,300-square-foot home sold Sept. 30 for $1.8 million – 50 bucks above its August list price.
Re/Max Commonwealth’s Larry Zacharias and Wendy Zacharias had the listing. Steele Group | SIR’s Carrie Robeson repped the buyer.
