Chesterfield sits south of the James River and Richmond, stretching from Midlothian in the west to the Appomattox River in the east. It's one of the largest counties in the metro by land and by number of homes.
Most people describe Chesterfield by area rather than by town. A few of the main ones:
Chesterfield has some of the biggest green spaces in the region.
Route 288 loops through the county and connects to I-64 and I-95. The Powhite Parkway, Chippenham Parkway, US 60 (Midlothian Turnpike), US 360 (Hull Street) and Route 10 handle most local traffic. Drive times to downtown Richmond depend heavily on which part of the county you start from and the time of day.
Housing runs from 1970s and 1980s colonials and split-levels to newer master-planned neighborhoods, townhomes, homes on the water at Swift Creek Reservoir and larger lots out west. Newer areas often come with HOAs and amenity fees, so we'll make sure you know the full monthly cost before you write an offer.
