Rare New Build in One of Richmond’s Most Iconic Locations: Welcome to River Notch
If you’ve spent any time exploring Richmond, you know that the River Road corridor holds a special place in the city’s heart. Known for its wooded lots, elegant homes, and close proximity to some of Richmond’s top private schools and outdoor spaces, River Road is one of those neighborhoods where homes rarely hit the market—especially new construction.
That’s what makes The James Plan at River Notch such a rare opportunity.
Tucked into a quiet, four-home enclave just off River Road, this newly completed 2025 home offers modern design and everyday luxury—all within one of Richmond’s most established and desirable areas. With 5 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, and 1.3 acres of space, this home is designed to evolve with you—whether you’re entertaining, working from home, or hosting family for the holidays
The Heart of the Home: An Impressive Richmond Kitchen
The kitchen at The James Plan is the kind of space that Richmond buyers dream about. Thoughtfully outfitted with quartzite countertops, a large center island, Wolf gas range and hood, built-in microwave, Cove dishwasher, and a sleek touch-screen panel refrigerator, it seamlessly opens into an oversized family room. Whether you’re hosting neighbors for a wine night or having a quiet Richmond morning with coffee and the newspaper, this space feels both refined and relaxed.
The adjacent morning room fills with natural light and leads out to a rear deck and concrete patio—perfect for those beautiful Richmond evenings that stretch long into the summer.
Flexible Floor Plan with Richmond Families in Mind
A wide front porch with a metal roof welcomes you home with peaceful views of the front yard. Inside, you’ll find a main-level in-law suite with full bath—ideal for multigenerational living, guests, or even a private office for your Richmond-based business. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a sitting area, two large walk-in closets, and a luxurious bathroom with a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and dual vanities.
Each of the additional bedrooms has its own en-suite bath, each featuring hand-selected tile that gives every space its own personality—an uncommon luxury in most Richmond homes.
The home also includes a formal dining room, a dedicated home office, a bonus rec room, a mudroom, and a two-car garage with lift-ready height. Hardwood floors run throughout the home (excluding the rec room), and full trim upgrades and custom lighting add a polished finish throughout.
