Near the city and green spaces too
The neighborhood of Chamberlayne puts residents close to downtown Richmond while also giving them plenty of green spaces in the form of forested lots, undeveloped land that separates Chamberlayne from other communities and a splendid local park and nature center. Single-family detached Cape Cod and Colonial Revival homes are common here, starting around $250,000 and running up to $500,000, but residents can also choose between townhouses or condos or live in an HOA community like Virginia Crossings.

Enjoying nature and rounds of golf
Many residents are within a 5-minute drive of one of Henrico’s finest hidden gems: Three Lakes Park. On top of offering numerous hiking trails, playgrounds, fishing spots and rentable pavilions, the park has a nature center comparable to a zoo, with a 50,000-gallon aquarium and various exhibits. Locals can hit another kind of green at the Crossings Golf Club. Locals can visit the pro shop for the newest golf clubs, play 18-holes and retire to the Tappit Hen Pub for a meal or a drink.
Chamberlayne's local parks offer miles of wooded walking trails to explore.
The Crossings Golf Course is listed as one of the area's favorite classic golf courses.

Shopping and eating on Brook Road
A Walmart Neighborhood Market, Food Lion and other retailers can be found at Brookhill Azalea Shopping Center in the southwest corner of Chamberlayne. More shopping options can be found up Brook Road (US Route 1), like a Walmart Supercenter. For used goods from clothes to jewelry to household items, residents can swing over to the Azalea Flea Market, which is often bustling with vendors. The flea market is open Fridays through Sundays. For the most part, chain restaurants dominate from Chick-fil-A to Buffalo Wild Wings, but a few local options can be found too like Q Barbeque. This Richmond favorite was founded by Tuffy Stone, who has appeared on the show “BBQ Pitmasters” and was recently inducted into the Barbecue Hall of Fame, which should give visitors a hint as to the quality of food they’re getting.
Many big box shopping options like Lowe's are conveniently located in Chamberlayne.

Driving down the interstates
A few bus routes circle around Brookhill Azalea Shopping Center and head south for downtown Richmond, but otherwise, the community is unserved by public transit. Interstate 95 marks the western boundary of the neighborhood, and Interstate 295 runs through the northern half.

GreatSchools:
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.
