NEIGHBORHOODS AND HOMES

Woodlake was developed shortly after the development of Brandermill by the same development group. Like Brandermill, Woodlake continued the trend of planned subdivisions, where homes were grouped by price, style, and type. By doing this, Woodlake is made of several individual, miniature neighborhoods.

AWARDS

This Chesterfield neighborhood has been recognized several times over the years, and has served as a model community for other planned communities around the country. In 1990, it was voted the “Best Community in America” by the Urban Land Institute. Ten years later, in 2000, they were named the “Number 1 Selling Community in Richmond” by Richmond Magazine. In 2002, Woodlake was named one of the “20 Hot Places to Live” by Richmond Magazine.
