Bellevue brings together leafy streets, front-porch camaraderie, and a lively main street along MacArthur Avenue, making it a favorite for those who want neighborhood feel with easy access to the city. Just minutes from downtown Richmond and adjacent to Ginter Park and Laburnum Park, it offers a comfortable pace without sacrificing convenience. Weekends often mean a stroll or bike ride to Bryan Park, where trails, a renowned azalea garden, and open fields set the scene for picnics, disc golf, and community markets.
Families value the neighborhood’s schools, with zoning that typically includes Linwood Holton Elementary, Henderson Middle, and John Marshall High, all part of Richmond Public Schools. Many streets are walkable to playgrounds and pocket parks, and local parent groups and PTAs are active, making it easy to plug in.
Daily life feels effortlessly local: coffee and brunch on MacArthur, an evening ice cream run, and frequent porch gatherings that turn neighbors into friends. When you’re ready for a quick nature break or an educational outing, Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden is close by, and an art fix at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts is a short drive. Classic 1920s-40s bungalows, brick foursquares, and thoughtfully updated homes give buyers variety and sellers strong curb appeal.
