For the second month in a row, the region’s highest-priced home sales included two that sold for more than a half-million dollars over list price, pushing the over-asking bar closer to the $1 million mark.
The priciest sale in June was 205 Massie Road, a 5,100-square-foot house in Richmond’s Windsor Farms neighborhood that sold for $3.45 million – $860,000 over its list price of $2.59 million.
Susan Jones with The Steele Group | Sotheby’s International Realty had the listing for sellers Bruce and Elizabeth Campbell, who bought the home in 2012 in a multiparcel deal totaling $1.15 million. Bruce Campbell is an executive with locally based AMF Bakery Systems.
Erika Cline with EXP Realty represented the buyers, listed in property records as Christian and Sarah Haller.

The house was listed May 2 and was put under contract May 10. It closed June 15. The city assessed the 0.7-acre property at $1.78 million.
Totaling four bedrooms and 3½ bathrooms, the English Cotswold-style house was built in 1932 and designed by an architect as his residence, according to Jones’ listing.
The two-story stone house is perched on an elevated double lot that adjoins a neighborhood common area. Renovated by the Campbells, the house includes items from nearby Agecroft Hall and has two primary suite options, a second-floor laundry and a front-to-back entrance hall connecting to the dining room and living room.
The house is perched atop an elevated double lot.
The house is accentuated with nearly 10-foot-high beamed ceilings, leaded glass windows, pointed archways and oak floors. The property includes a garden with fountain and bluestone terrace, and a vaulted breezeway connects the kitchen with a two-car garage.
June’s top five sales included another home that sold for even higher above list price.
The house at 6120 Saint Andrews Lane, a 4,300-square-foot midcentury-style home beside the Country Club of Virginia, sold for $2.53 million – $885,000 above its May 24 list price of $1.65 million.
Steele Group agents Jill Davenport and Mary Davenport had the listing, representing the family of Huntley and Jean Davenport. Huntley Davenport, who died in 2018, was a CCV president and worked at Wells Fargo Advisors for 50 years.
