Westham Named one of Richmond’s 5 Great Neighborhoods

Thanks to John Murden over at CHPN for sending this our way. Westham joined The Fan, Oregon Hill, Woodland Heights and Bellvue in an HGTV “Front Door” story on 5 great neighborhoods in Richmond.

For being an out of town publication, it looks like they pretty much nailed it:

Built primarily in the 1940s and 1950s as the city expanded westward, Westham borders the University of Richmond and is home to Cape Cod houses alongside elegant estates. Easy access to shopping centers like the Village and River Road as well as nearby private schools and the strong Henrico Country school system make Westham an attractive neighborhood for both empty nesters and families. The area owes much of its charm to the wildlife and native flora in Westham’s mature woodland.
