Midcentury neighborhood 10 miles west of downtown
Mooreland Farms is a midcentury success story. It was founded after World War II by Eugene West in Henrico County, about 10 miles from downtown but only one mile to Collegiate School. It remains popular among families who want to be near this lauded private institution. “People like that it’s walkable to Collegiate, and there’s a crossing guard on duty at River Road when school lets out,” says Realtor Jenny Maraghy, a founding member of Compass Richmond with over 30 years of real estate experience. She adds a fun fact that paints a picture of Mooreland Farms as a family friendly neighborhood: “One of the people who developed the show ‘Family Guy’ resides there.”
Your family can enjoy homes found on cul-de-sacs for extra room in the yard.

Colonials, Tudors and Georgians often in the million-dollar range
At an aesthetic level, Mooreland Farms is a slice of old school Richmond, with a dash of sophistication and southern charm. “Mooreland Farms definitely has a stately style to it,” says Eliza Conrad, Realtor with Shaheen Ruth Martin & Fonville. “The homes are gorgeous and high-quality. It’s rare to find a home there costing less than $1 million.” Commonly seen genres are crisp white clapboard colonials, red brick Georgians and Tudors. Large windows and screened porches bring abundant natural light into these properties. Maraghy says that “about 20 years ago, Mooreland Farms was super popular. Then some of the homes were ready for a facelift inside. And then five to seven years ago it made another big turn with major renovations happening to homes. So the prices in there surged.” Recent sales show a price spread from $800,000 to $2.2 million.

Fun at the neighborhood pool
While there are no public parks in Mooreland Farms, it is a shaded walkable community. “It also has a neighborhood pool that remains a hit,” says Maraghy. There are also green spaces within a short drive. Bandy Field Nature Park, about 5 miles away on Three Chopt Road, is an ideal place to stroll, and protected by a conservation easement that ensures it remains undeveloped. The Country Club of Virginia is equally close, and features three 18-hole courses. Founded in 1908, this private club is also known for a large brick clubhouse that’s reminiscent of home styles in Mooreland Farms.

Live music at The Tin Pan
Likewise, residents are brief driving distance from shopping and dining. The River Road Shopping Center is close, at a little over 3 miles east. It features a mix of fine dining and clothing stores, plus a Starbucks for quicker convenience. But the Gayton Crossing Shopping Center is also just 3 miles away, if one drives north. It features a Kroger, while the Melting Pot offers fun with fondue. Pet supplies, clothing and sweet treats at DeLuca Gelato are some of the other goods on tap here. By going a mile east to the Quioccasin Station Shopping Center, one can find more grocery stores – The Fresh Market, Walmart and another Kroger. Fast food chains are available, but so is The Tin Pan, a cozy music venue with cocktails and comfort food.
Mooreland Farms residents can visit Trader Joe's to refill their pantries.

Pedestrian options, but having a car is crucial
Mooreland Farms requires most residents to have a car, since food is a few miles away – and bus lines aren’t immediately close to the neighborhood. Yet, a primary reason people move to Mooreland Farms is because they have children who choose to walk or bike to Collegiate, so it does offer an alternative transportation angle. Plus, being located along River Road means that residents have a straight shot to Carytown, a walkable stretch of boutique stores just 7 miles east.
