Located at 132 North Sycamore Street in Petersburg, Virginia, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit offers a well-designed open layout with a contemporary urban aesthetic. Rich hardwood floors run throughout the entire space, complementing the bright white walls and creating a warm, inviting ambiance. The open-concept living and kitchen area is a standout feature, with soaring ceilings and pendant lighting that draw the eye upward. The kitchen is appointed with a large island featuring dark granite countertops, light maple cabinetry, black stainless appliances, and a double-basin sink — all seamlessly connected to the spacious living area.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
