Locally owned businesses minutes from tranquil suburbs
Local pubs and markets are minutes away from homes in the community of Westhampton. Originally a suburb along the Richmond streetcar line, Westhampton has developed a solid small business community that contributes to a proud and supportive community. “It has maintained its value through any economic downturn,” says Susan Fisher, a local Realtor at Long and Foster Realty and a lifelong Richmonder. “Mainly because of its central location with mid-range and high price homes, access to restaurants and shopping and schools and more.” Locals walk or bike to grab coffee or groceries along Libbie Avenue, a short distance from other Richmond commercial districts like Carytown.
Patrons stop along The Avenues for Westhampton's shops and eateries
Westhampton's small-town charm is evident in its retail district, alive with locally owned restaurants and boutiques along Libbie Avenue and Grove Avenue, locally dubbed "the Avenues." Pet owners can shop for toys and treats at For the Love of Pete. Right next door is Apothec, an aromatherapy store that also sells bath products and hosts classes on herbalism and related topics. Residents can pick up groceries from the Libbie Market and Cafe. The market was the previous location of the Ukrop family's specialty store. It was saved by a local campaign just as it was about to close. After a name change and the addition of a cafe, the market has become a favorite place for locals to shop and dine.
Patrons can start the day with a cup of coffee on the patio at Grit Coffee. Craft brews and unique burgers are on the menu at Jack Browns Beer & Burger Joint on Grove Avenue. Just down the street is Beijing on Grove, a modern gastropub dishing out Cantonese dishes and a selection of craft cocktails. Elevated American fare is served in a warm and retro-themed dining room at The Continental Westhampton. Along Patterson Avenue is Pearl's Bake Shoppe, known for its colorful array of cupcakes and made-to-order wedding cakes.
Party on the Avenues and hoiliday events in Westhampton
Every year, Westhampton hosts Party on the Avenues, a festival celebrating its businesses and small-town charm. The festival features local vendors and family-friendly entertainment. Westhampton also hosts an annual Santa Breakfast and Winter Trolley Ride, where kids can ask Santa for goodies before riding the trolley around the Avenues.
Brick Cape Cods and bungalows in Westhampton's suburbs
Cozy blocks of suburban homes line streets shaded by leafy oak trees. Homes typically feature well-maintained lawns and a mix of residences with driveways and guaranteed street parking. The neighborhood's residences are architecturally consistent: brick exteriors with slate or shingled roofing in a variety of styles, from Colonial revivals and Cape Cods to bungalows and ranch-style houses. New developments are bringing some contemporary-style condos to the area. Prices vary depending on location; homes south of Patterson Avenue tend to be more expensive than on the north side. A modest bungalow north of Patterson Avenue costs $415,000, while a large brick Colonial estate can cost around $1.4 million.
Community engagement in Westhampton's schools
Westhampton's public school students are served by Richmond Public Schools. Mary Munford Elementary has an overall B-plus score on Niche and an excellent record of community engagement through charity events and awareness campaigns, thanks to the school's PTA. Students move on to Albert Hill Middle and Thomas Jefferson High, which have overall B-ratings on Niche. Thomas Jefferson High is included on the National Register of Historic Places; built in 1932 with striking Art Deco architecture.
Residents bring their kids to playgrounds and community centers
Public green space is limited in Westhampton, but visitors can bring their kids or relax at the Westhampton and Libbie playgrounds. Residents are also close to the Weinstein Jewish Community Center, which offers children's camps, athletic programs, and classes for all ages and faiths.
Getting around The Avenues and nearby facilities
Residents can walk to Libbie and Grove Avenue, but getting around town is dependent on automobiles and local thoroughfares. The Greater Richmond Transit Company has bus stops along most of the community's major streets. Libbie Avenue runs north to south, while Grove Avenue, Patterson Avenue, and North Thompson Street run east to west through Westhampton. The University of Richmond campus and St. Mary's Hospital are within two miles of the neighborhood. North Thompson Street runs three miles southeast, right into the shopping district of Carytown.
