A rare blend of warmth, elegance, and convenience.
Edgewood, located between Kanawha City and South Hills, is a residential and hillside Charleston neighborhood with curving streets and mid-century ranch homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along MacCorkle Avenue SE near the Kanawha City commercial strip, where local diners, corner markets, and service storefronts set a steady, lived-in rhythm. Edgewood’s housing stock mixes brick one-levels, split-levels, and tidy postwar cottages on wooded lots. Daily routines orbit nearby riverfront drives and the Kanawha State Forest trail network. Cultural touchstones close by include the Clay Center for the Arts & Sciences, Taylor Books, and Capitol Market. The geography reads as quiet slopes above the Kanawha River corridor, with downtown within a short drive.
