March 2024 sale marks highest priced home sold in region for the month
Long & Foster Real Estate has announced that Cabell Childress, a sales associate from its Midtown office in Richmond, Virginia, successfully represented the purchaser in the landmark $3.55M sale of a breathtaking estate home in Mooreland Farms. This sale, finalized in March 2024, stands as the highest priced home sold in the region for the month.
Located at 204 South Mooreland Road, this grand cape residence is set in the prestigious Western Henrico area along the River Road corridor. The estate has over 5,700 square feet of luxurious living space, featuring six bedrooms, four bathrooms, two half bathrooms, and an array of high-end amenities including a heated saltwater pool and a pool house.
“We congratulate Cabell on selling this outstanding property for a record-breaking price and his consistent success in the real estate business with Long & Foster,” said Dawn Bradley, senior vice president and regional manager of the Richmond and Charlottesville/Staunton regions. “Cabell truly has put together a business model for the Cabell Childress Group team members that produces great results without compromising quality to his clients.”
Childress, who was the exclusive selling agent for this property, was instrumental in securing the home for the buyer. The client approached Childress after viewing an engaging property video on a real estate site, showcasing Childress’s effective marketing strategy in an intensely competitive market characterized by multiple offers and few days on the market.
“This was the highest priced home sold in our region for the month of March,” said Sarah Freeman, managing broker of Long & Foster’s Midtown and Westham offices. “We are proud of Cabell for his dedication to serving his clients. His results-oriented buyer strategy got this home under contract, affirming Cabell’s and the Cabell Childress Group’s achievement as an elite team with Long & Foster since 2008, consistently outperforming their previous year with sales up 13% in 2023, having sold 300+ homes and $142M in sales volume for 2023 and with $65M under contract so far in 2024.”
An exceptional testament to unwavering quality, this Mooreland Farms residence is a property of unparalleled distinction. A renowned team of artisans—Mako Builders, interior designer Suellen Gregory, and landscape architect Marcia Fryer—collaborated on a meticulous multi-year renovation completed in 2021, ensuring every detail was perfect.
The inviting foyer welcomes you through a paneled archway, leading to a custom lacquered dining room. The chef’s-grade kitchen, featuring an oversized marble center island, flows into the living room, where a see-through gas fireplace connects the space to an adjoining sunroom. The expansive family room, complete with a coffered ceiling, wet bar, built-ins, and a wall of glass leading outside, forms the heart of the home. The first-floor primary suite offers a lavish marble bathroom with a soaking tub and an aromatherapy steam shower, plus an expansive walk-in closet. Upstairs, five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a laundry room, and an office provide ample space for family and guests.
The exterior design is equally impressive, featuring a heated saltwater pool, outdoor fireplace, pool house, uplighting, meticulously-laid hardscaping, an impressive brick wall, and a circular driveway. A few of the other outstanding features of this home include a generator, custom Martin-Star cabinetry, Lutron lighting, state-of-the-art sound, irrigation, and security systems.
