Oxford offers a calm, residential pocket on the Southside of Richmond, where shady streets and mid-century homes sit minutes from the James River. Outdoor lovers appreciate how close the neighborhood is to the James River Park System for weekend paddles, scenic runs, and sunset walks. Pony Pasture’s boulders and riffles are a quick drive away, and families often plan easy outings to Pony Pasture Rapids Park. Proximity to the Huguenot Bridge and Chippenham Parkway keeps commutes straightforward, while nearby Stratford Hills offers everyday conveniences.
Schools are a strong draw. The area feeds into Richmond Public Schools, with popular private options nearby, including Sabot at Stony Point. Weekend plans come easy: tee times and tennis at Willow Oaks Country Club, biking along riverside roads, and fresh finds at the South of the James Market in Forest Hill Park. Dining choices range from casual local spots to upscale destinations along the Forest Hill Avenue corridor and at Stony Point. Homes here tend to feature generous yards, mature landscaping, and a laid-back pace that makes it simple to wave to neighbors, walk the dog, or unwind on the porch after work.
