When it comes to Beverly Hills, some may just think of the popular California city, but it's also a small Lynchburg neighborhood with well-known restaurants and Southern charm. “The neighborhood has lots of shops, restaurants, apartments and homes,” says Sabrina Tomlin, a Realtor with NextHome TwoFourFive who has lived in Lynchburg her entire life. “It almost reminds you of areas in Northern Virginia.” Due to the proximity to Liberty University, Beverly Hills has expanded over the years, Tomlin says. “There are just so many places to go, you’d think they’d stop building more, but they aren’t because of all the people that Liberty University brings in,” she says. “And once people graduate, a lot of them stay in the area.” Even with the nearby university, the neighborhood is still very family-oriented. “It has a Southern charm. People here are very friendly,” Tomlin says.
Beverly Hills has mostly single-family ranch homes, but there are a few apartments close by.
The Lynchburg Community Market in Central Business District is a Saturday morning staple.

Muse Coffee, County Smoak
People visit the Kroger on Timberlake Road for grocery restocks. Across the street is the Timberlake Station shopping center, which includes a Family Dollar and Harbor Freight Tools. Tomlin says she enjoys Muse Coffee Shop. It’s known for its “Christmas in a Cup,” a coffee flavor that has sweet, cinnamon accents. For a quick breakfast, people head to Blue Ridge Bagel, a family-owned shop. “It’s a cute little bakery,” Robertson says. “I usually only go over to that area for the bagels. That’s it.” County Smoak serves dishes like brisket and southern-style sides such as mac and cheese and collard greens. La Villa Italian Restaurant is another popular spot that’s locally owned in Beverly, Tomlin says. Meanwhile, for dessert, Outside The Cone makes handcrafted ice cream.
