The Manor at Hunton Park

Independent Assessment

The age restriction here is unusually well documented for a small community: the HOA's own 'About Us' page describes The Manor at Hunton Park as 'an active, age-qualified, gated community for residents 55 and over' in direct, explicit terms — not implied through marketing adjectives. The more important finding is a naming disambiguation: this community is genuinely distinct from 'The Villas at Hunton Park,' a separate Ryan Homes-built product nearby (three-story attached units) with no confirmed age restriction. Both sit within the broader multi-decade 'Hunton Park' development area of Glen Allen, along with a still-different, non-age-restricted MAA Hunton Park apartment complex — buyers and researchers alike should take care not to conflate the three when searching for information.

Who May Find This Community Appealing

Buyers who want a small, gated, genuinely age-restricted community with first-floor primary suites and larger square footage (2,301–3,447 sq ft) than most Richmond-area 55+ villa products, and who are comfortable buying resale in a fully built-out, 20-plus-year-old neighborhood, are the best fit. Its gated entry and modest size (78 homes) also suit buyers who specifically want to know their neighbors rather than navigate a large resort-style campus.

Homes, Builders & Development History

Style Craft, Inc. began developing The Manor at Hunton Park in 2003 with a plan for 78 homes; all 78 have since been completed and sold. Homes come in two floor plans ranging from 2,301 to 3,447 square feet, both featuring first-floor primary suites — notably larger than many other Richmond-area 55+ villa communities.

Current Pricing & Market Positioning

A specific, current price range for resale homes at The Manor at Hunton Park has not been independently confirmed from a reliable recent source. Given the community's larger-than-typical floor plans (up to 3,447 square feet), gated entry, and established west Henrico location, it is reasonably positioned in the upper tier of Henrico County's 55+ resale market — but buyers should pull current comparable sales directly rather than relying on any single figure.

New Construction vs. Resale Considerations

The Manor at Hunton Park is entirely a resale market — Style Craft, Inc. completed and sold all 78 homes years ago, and there is no active builder sales program here. Buyers should expect ordinary home-inspection and seller-disclosure practices rather than a builder warranty.

Taxes, Insurance & Special Assessments

Homes here are subject to Henrico County real estate tax, most recently reported between roughly $0.83 and $0.87 per $100 of assessed value depending on the source — buyers should confirm the current rate directly with Henrico County. Henrico County also offers a real estate tax exemption/relief program for qualifying residents 65 and older who meet income and net-worth thresholds.

Community Layout & Lifestyle

The Manor at Hunton Park runs a modest but active resident-driven social calendar out of its clubhouse — book club, mah jongg, and recurring Silver Spoon luncheons and dinners are specifically documented by the HOA, suggesting an engaged, close-knit resident community rather than a large professionally programmed activity center. The gated entry and larger, first-floor-primary-suite home designs (2,301–3,447 sq ft) set it apart from smaller villa-style 55+ products in the same general area.

Shopping, Healthcare & Airport Access

The community sits off Staples Mill Road at the end of Hunton Park Boulevard in Glen Allen, Henrico County, with a Publix, Aldi, and Target a short drive away, several medical centers nearby, and easy access to I-295, I-95, and I-64. Downtown Short Pump and the Innsbrook business corridor are about 10 minutes away.

Age Qualification & Material Ownership Restrictions

The HOA's own 'About Us' page explicitly describes The Manor at Hunton Park as 'an active, age-qualified, gated community for residents 55 and over,' which is direct, first-party documentation of an intended age restriction rather than inferred marketing language. The full HOPA 80/20 occupancy compliance certification has not been independently reviewed; buyers should still request it directly from the association before purchasing. Buyers researching this community online should also take care to distinguish it from the separately named 'Villas at Hunton Park' nearby, a different Ryan Homes-built product for which no confirmed age restriction was found.

Tradeoffs & Limitations

Because all 78 homes were completed and sold following the community's 2003 start, buyers are choosing entirely from resale inventory — no builder warranty, and given the community's age, buyers should budget for the possibility of aging major systems (roofs, HVAC) in any specific home under consideration. The amenity package (pool and clubhouse) is more modest than larger Henrico communities like CrossRidge, consistent with the smaller scale and correspondingly lower amenity-related dues.

Comparison With Nearby Communities

Within the Glen Allen/west Henrico corridor, The Manor at Hunton Park is most comparable to Britlyn and the Villas at Virginia Center as a modest-scale, resale-only 55+ option, though its gated entry and larger home sizes set it apart from both. Buyers should specifically avoid confusing it with the separately named, non-age-restricted Villas at Hunton Park product nearby, or with the all-ages MAA Hunton Park apartment complex in the same general Hunton Park area.

Is The Manor at Hunton Park the same community as Villas at Hunton Park?

No. Independent research found these are genuinely distinct communities that happen to share part of a name and a general location. The Manor at Hunton Park is a StyleCraft-built, explicitly age-qualified 55-and-over gated community of 78 detached homes. Villas at Hunton Park is a separate, Ryan Homes-built product (three-story attached units) for which a legal age restriction has not been confirmed. Both sit within the broader Hunton Park area of Glen Allen, which also includes the unrelated, non-age-restricted MAA Hunton Park apartment complex.

Is The Manor at Hunton Park legally age-restricted?

The HOA's own 'About Us' page explicitly describes it as 'an active, age-qualified, gated community for residents 55 and over.' Buyers should still request formal HOPA certification documentation directly before purchasing.

No. All 78 homes were completed and sold following Style Craft, Inc.'s 2003 development start. It is entirely resale today.
