Located on 446 acres and a mile of frontage on the Elizabeth River, the master-planned community of River Walk sensitively inserts 12 residential Villages into a dense forest of evergreens and hardwoods laced with tidal marshes.
A verdant parkway unites the Villages, whose brick and copper-roofed gatehouses and lush landscaping create a unique civic identity for the development. The brick River Club is a communal building inspired by the strong local Georgian architecture. Housing ranging from starter homes and condominiums up to custom-built single family homes exist within a single community, allowing over 1400 families to live and move up within the neighbourhood.
