Cedarhurst brings a quiet, residential feel to the Southside of Richmond, with shaded streets, mid-century brick ranches, and well-kept cottages that appeal to first-time buyers and long-time homeowners alike. Daily life is pleasantly practical here: quick access to Powhite and Chippenham parkways shortens commutes, while nearby Forest Hill Avenue delivers groceries, coffee, and everyday essentials without the hassle.
Outdoorsy residents have enviable options. The lakeside trails and stone bridge at Forest Hill Park invite morning jogs and dog walks, and the James River Park System adds mountain-biking loops, riverside overlooks, and kayaking put-ins just minutes away. On Sundays, the South of the James Farmers Market is a local ritual for produce, pastries, and live music. For dining and creative energy beyond the neighborhood, the nearby corridors of Forest Hill and the arts-forward warehouse conversions in Manchester round out the scene.
Families value access to Richmond Public Schools; Cedarhurst is typically served by Westover Hills Elementary, Lucille M. Brown Middle, and Huguenot High. Explore district updates at Richmond Public Schools and zoning or enrollment details on the RPS enrollment and registration page.
