The Villas at Swift Creek

The Villas at Swift Creek is a luxury 55+ low-maintenance community by Boone Homes in Moseley, Virginia, tucked into Chesterfield County at the corner of Otterdale and Woolridge Roads just off Hull Street. At buildout the community will consist of 194 attached homes — roughly 110 townhomes and 84 quad-style homes — spread across 49.5 acres, with 16 of those acres dedicated to recreation, pocket parks, sidewalks, and two professionally landscaped ponds that anchor the community's walking trail network. Boone Homes is a Richmond-area luxury builder with more than 30 years of history and a 2021 Builder of the Year award from the Home Building Association of Richmond. That quality shows up in the eight available floor plans (ranging roughly 1,735 to 2,885 square feet), each designed around first-floor living so residents can age in place comfortably. Standard included features are well above typical new construction: granite countertops, oversized 8-foot kitchen islands, GE appliances, RevWood Select flooring on the main level, gas fireplaces, tray ceilings, raised-height vanities, curbless primary showers, and Rinnai tankless water heaters. Buyers choose between townhomes (including interior and end units with dual-primary-suite options) and detached-feel quad-style homes that share walls but live like single-family. Build timeline on a new contract typically runs 6–8 months; quick move-in spec homes are also available. The social hub is a professionally designed clubhouse featuring a chef's gourmet kitchen for cooking demonstrations and events, flexible multipurpose rooms, and an indoor golf simulator that lets residents play year-round regardless of Virginia weather. Outside, a resort-style pool, outdoor patio, pickleball courts, dog park, and a network of walking and biking trails weave through the community past the two scenic ponds and pocket parks. A full-time activities director helps coordinate clubs, classes, and social events. Pricing on base plans has run approximately $516,000 to $630,000, with recent sold prices around $553,000 median. The HOA is a flat $300/month covering lawn maintenance, irrigation, and common-area upkeep — no CDD. Chesterfield County's real estate tax rate is $0.90 per $100 of assessed value. Location is a significant draw. The community sits about 23 miles southwest of downtown Richmond (roughly a 30-minute drive) and 40 minutes from Richmond International Airport. Daily conveniences — Publix, ALDI, Food Lion, Kroger, Walmart, Costco, CVS, Walgreens — are all within a short drive along the Hull Street corridor. Medical care is well-covered by Bon Secours St. Francis Medical Center (~4.5 miles), Johnston-Willis Hospital (~5 miles), and Chippenham Hospital. Outdoor options abound nearby at Pocahontas State Park, Midlothian Mines Park, Watermill Nature Preserve, Sycamore Community Park, and Clarendon Park, while golfers can choose from Independence Golf Club, Salisbury Country Club, Lake Chesdin Golf Club, and The Golf Club at The Highlands. Cultural and entertainment draws in greater Richmond include Maymont, the Metro Richmond Zoo, Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden, and the Modlin Center for the Arts.
