Sprawling homes alongside sprawling farms and golf courses
Although some of the farms and plantations of Manakin-Sabot are giving way to subdivisions, this community knows how to keep its rural charm, a fact exemplified by the sight of residents tending to spacious lawns, or simply saying hello to each other on the street or at the golf course. “It’s a lovely community for someone who wants a little elbow room but to still have a tight community of gracious neighbors,” says Sue Farrell, a Realtor with Joyner Fine Properties who has been selling homes for 22 years. “If you’re driving and pull over to text in Manakin-Sabot, a resident will stop and see if you’re okay.” A wave of development has swept through Manakin-Sabot, with recently built Colonial Revival and New Traditional homes starting around $650,000. Nevertheless, the community sticks close to its roots, with agricultural fields, equestrian facilities and farmers markets still gracing the neighborhood. As Farrell says, “Manakin-Sabot still has a rural essence even if it’s developing by leaps and bounds.”

Large homes on even larger lots
Homes often follow Cape Cod, Colonial Revival and New Traditional designs, spanning over 2,500 square feet and selling for between $650,000 and $1.1 million. “It’s one of the most expensive cost-per-square-foot areas in metropolitan Richmond,” Farrell says. “A lot of that has to do with the size and quality of the estates but also because they’re on large parcels of lands.” Manakin-Sabot’s median lot size is 1.5 acres, trees providing shade and privacy, with forests, farms and golf courses separating subdivisions. Many new houses have been built since the 2010s, though established homes remain. Whatever the date of construction, houses are well-kept. “All homes are meticulously maintained,” Farrell says. “Many are in HOAs, so they control their maintenance.” HOA communities include Kinloch and Readers Branch.

Getting around Manakin-Sabot
A few highways pass through Manakin-Sabot, not too close and not too far from subdivisions. Interstate 64 is the biggest of the bunch, taking residents to Richmond in about 30 minutes. Drivers can stop by the Short Pump Town Center along the way, a mall with over 120 stores.

Eating in Manakin-Sabot and shopping in Short Pump
“There are a couple of smaller grocery stores like a Food Lion, but there are more restaurants than stores in Manakin-Sabot proper,” Farrell says. “But because it’s such a quick and easy to commute to the shopping centers at Short Pump, you’re within 7-8 minutes of everything whether it’s Kroger, Publix or Whole Foods.” Keeping with the community’s agricultural history, farmers markets are still a thing in Manakin-Sabot, and the Manakin Market is open for business Saturday mornings during the warmer months. Local restaurants include Sunset Grill, a steakhouse, and Satterwhite’s, a casual diner. Satterwhite’s achieved fame for serving monstrously big cheeseburgers. “It was called the mammoth burger,” Farrell says. “Growing up, I had six brothers, and they would order one and divide into six slices, and it would be more than enough for all of them.” Though the mammoth burger’s been taken off the menu, Satterwhite’s is still famous for their generous portions, proudly serving “The Biggest Breakfast in Town.”

Golf courses and loads of horses
Fore! Or maybe “four!” is more appropriate, as there are four golf courses right by Manakin-Sabot, plus driving ranges and mini golf. Whether a course is managed by a golf club or a country club should be taken into consideration before residents apply for membership. “Kinloch is more of a men’s golf club while the Richmond and Hermitage country clubs offer more diverse activities for families aside from golf like tennis, fitness and swimming,” Farrell says. But all of them are great spots to socialize. “Going to the golf clubs is a nice way of networking, and if you’re new to the community, it’s a nice way to meet people,” Farrell says. Manakin-Sabot also has a long history of equestrianism, going back to the community’s rural origins. “Some subdivisions have bridle paths where you can do trail-riding with your horses,” Farrell says. “And the fencing is set way off Manakin Road so you can ride your horse parallel to the road.”

Heritage festivities
Field Day of the Past is a fair held in Rockville every September that celebrates Goochland County’s history. “They bring out vintage farm equipment for the kids to see. It’s kind of like going to the firehouse,” Farrell says. “There will also be food trucks and sometimes a petting zoo.”
