Sharon Nicholson

Rooted in the South, Cultivated on the West Coast: Sharon grew up amidst the charm of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and later pursued higher education at Pepperdine University in Malibu, California, where she earned a Master's in Psychology. This diverse blend of Southern warmth and West Coast sophistication laid the foundation for her unique approach to real estate. Her grandfather owned a building/developing company, creating neighborhoods in Winston-Salem beginning in 1950. She was fortunate to be on the job site at an early age, soaking up all of the wisdom and ingraining in the importance of every aspect of building a home and community. Her mother was a realtor with unwavering charisma, elegance, and knowledge instilled in Sharon.

A Journey Embarked in 1996: Sharon's real estate odyssey commenced in 1996 with Beazer Homes in Charlotte, NC, where she swiftly earned the title of Rookie of the Year, her first year in the industry. This early success fueled her passion for real estate and set the stage for a remarkable career.

Building Dreams Beyond Boundaries: In 1999, Sharon and her partner embarked on a new venture, establishing a home-building company (Beckwith Homes). Together, they ventured into buying and developing land, designing floor plans, staging model homes, overseeing construction, and managing sales representatives. This hands-on experience honed her skills and deepened her understanding of the intricacies of the real estate world. She has listed & sold homes from less than two hundred thousand to 6 million, a 1/4 acre to 400 acres, and everything in between. Passionate about turning sellers' homes from what they once were to a buyer's dream. Her priority remains the same regardless of the price point—perfection at every level.

A Richmond Resident with a Heart for Home: For 16 years, she has proudly called Richmond, Virginia home. The community has shaped her professional journey and created strong relationships with contractors at every stage of preparing a home for the market. Richmond has also been the backdrop to successfully raising five wonderful children.

Balancing Life's Rich Tapestry: With her last child having recently left the nest and off the payroll, she now has the freedom to dedicate ample time to real estate, her husband, John, gorgeous golden retriever, Huntly, and various passions. Whether she enjoys the thrill of a tennis match, the serenity of yoga, the rush of skiing down slopes, or the freedom of biking through scenic routes, all amidst trying to maintain her raised garden beds, she approaches life with the same vigor and dedication that defines her real estate career.
