Stratford Hills, located between the James River and Forest Hill Park, is a residential and hillside Richmond neighborhood with mid-century brick ranches and winding, tree-lined streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Stratford Hills Shopping Center at Forest Hill Avenue and Hathaway Road, where a compact strip of local storefronts and everyday errands sets the tempo. Stuffy’s Sandwich Shop anchors the area with a long-running, no-frills lunch counter feel. Riverside Drive and nearby river overlooks shape an outdoors-forward routine, with trails and water views close by. Lots tend to be generous, and the terrain creates tucked-away cul-de-sacs and elevated sightlines.
