Set along the Hermitage Country Club golf course, this Goochland County property combines traditional architecture, expansive living spaces, and an extensive collection of private recreational amenities.
In Manakin-Sabot, just west of Richmond, 1 Starwood Lane occupies 62.63 acres overlooking the Hermitage Country Club golf course and Hermitage Lake. The gated estate includes a substantial white brick residence, separate guest cottage, pool house, and recreational facilities rarely found together on a single residential property.
Offered at $9,990,000 through Shaheen, Ruth, Martin & Fonville Real Estate, the property encompasses approximately 15,716 finished square feet, including 11,907 square feet above grade and 3,809 square feet below grade.
Traditional Architecture, Considered Details
A winding paved driveway approaches the residence through landscaped grounds and mature trees. The white brick exterior features a columned entrance, dormer windows, and a new slate roof.
Inside, a two-story foyer with a curved staircase establishes the home’s traditional architectural character. Detailed millwork, hardwood and parquet flooring, custom cabinetry, and five fireplaces appear throughout.
The main level includes formal living and dining rooms, a library with built-in cabinetry and fireplace, and a sunroom with French doors leading to the rear patio.
The kitchen is designed around two substantial islands, with stone countertops, gas cooking, and a separate preparation area. Adjoining morning and family rooms provide additional gathering spaces, each with its own fireplace.
The result is a floor plan with clearly defined rooms, generous proportions, and multiple spaces for both formal and informal entertaining.
Private Living Across Multiple Levels
The second floor centers on the primary suite, which includes a separate sitting room, spacious bath, and walk-in closet.
Four additional bedrooms occupy this level, with a combination of en-suite and shared baths. The third floor provides two additional bedroom options, each with an en-suite bath, along with a recreation room and flexible finished space.
Throughout the upper levels, the home’s scale allows for a variety of uses without compromising the distinction between private living areas and shared spaces.
A Property Built Around Recreation
One of the estate’s defining characteristics is the range of recreational facilities. The finished lower level includes a golf simulator with a wet bar, an indoor putting room, a wine cellar, and a dedicated fitness space.
Outside, the grounds include a heated and cooled swimming pool, a hot tub with cold plunge, and a pool house with a kitchen and fireplace. A tennis court with gazebo and a baseball diamond with spectator stands extend the recreational offerings across the acreage.
Expansive outdoor entertaining areas complement these facilities, including a rear brick patio overlooking the landscaped grounds.
The Grounds and Surrounding Landscape
The estate’s 62.63 acres include open lawns, mature magnolias, wooded areas, and gently rolling terrain. The property is fully fenced, with a controlled-access entrance and an extensive paved driveway.
Golf course frontage and views of Hermitage Lake establish a strong connection to the surrounding landscape, while the property’s acreage provides substantial separation from neighboring residences.
Despite its setting, 1 Starwood Lane remains convenient to Short Pump’s shopping, dining, and services, as well as the broader Richmond metropolitan area.
Beyond the Main Residence
A separate guest cottage provides additional accommodations, including a bedroom with en-suite bath, kitchen, living area, and three-car garage.
The main residence includes an attached four-car garage, while a separate four-door equipment building provides storage for vehicles, equipment, and other property needs.
The estate also includes irrigation, a generator, and multi-zone heating and cooling systems.
A Distinctive Property in the Richmond Luxury Market
The appeal of 1 Starwood Lane lies in the combination of its location, acreage, established architecture, and breadth of amenities.
Properties with more than 60 acres, golf course frontage, substantial finished living space, and dedicated recreational facilities represent a specialized segment of the Greater Richmond luxury market.
At 1 Starwood Lane, these elements come together within a single gated property, minutes from the conveniences of Short Pump.
1 Starwood Lane is offered by Scott Shaheen and Scott Ruth of Shaheen, Ruth, Martin & Fonville Real Estate.
