Welcome to 12601 Inverness Drive, a truly one-of-a-kind custom home tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the established Rivers Bend community. Surrounded by mature trees and designed for everyday living and entertaining, this 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence offers over 4,000 finished square feet, dual primary suites, a 2.5-car garage with storage, and exceptional indoor-outdoor living. The first floor features 9-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, fresh neutral paint, extensive millwork, built-ins, and abundant natural light. Elegant columns and a mirrored accent wall define the formal living and dining rooms, while the dramatic family room showcases a vaulted ceiling, Palladian window, and brick wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen offers granite counters, gas cooking, wall oven, pantry storage, and a bright breakfast area. Two primary suites provide exceptional flexibility. The first-floor primary retreat includes a renovated bath, separate dressing areas, walk-in closet, private laundry access, and direct access to the screened porch. Upstairs, the second primary suite offers a private covered deck, walk-in closet, jetted tub, and separate shower. Three additional bedrooms and a shared bath complete the second level, while the walk-up unfinished third floor offers storage or potential for future expansion. Outdoor living is the showpiece. French doors from the kitchen open to a large screened porch with custom string lighting and ceiling fans. Enjoy two covered decks—one on each level—with direct access from both primary suites. The private, tree-lined backyard features a three-tier fountain, stone patio, firepit area, and peaceful setting. Rivers Bend amenities include a community pool and splash pool, playground, basketball court, sand volleyball court, pickleball courts, and tennis courts.
River's Bend, located between the Appomattox River and I-295, is a residential and golf-course Enon neighborhood with fairway views and wooded streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the River’s Bend Clubhouse and its approach drives, where carts, practice greens, and porch seating set a relaxed, resort-like rhythm. Brick-front colonials and newer traditional builds line curving roads, with pockets of cul-de-sacs that keep traffic light. The River’s Bend Golf Club serves as a social anchor, while nearby Henricus Historical Park adds a dose of regional story and river scenery. Outdoor time centers on river overlooks and trail-style walks, with errands and coffee runs pointing toward Chester’s retail corridors.
