1:00 - 4:00pm Self-guided tours of 5 Charles Goodman homes
Highland Hills is the only neighborhood in central Virginia exclusively consisting of mid-century homes. Located in beautiful and historic Bon Air in Chesterfield County, the approximate 83 homes in Highland Hills were developed in the mid-fifties by National Homes and featured modern designs by the famous architect Charles Goodman.
These 1950s houses have common design elements: low-sloped roofs with generous overhangs; horizontal siding; flat-roofed carports; wide expanses of floor to ceiling windows; and unique chimney designs. Basic post and beam construction was used to keep costs low. Nestled in wooded hills, these mid-century modern designs, in Goodman’s own words, make the houses appear to “…slide through the trees.”
Highland Hills homes on the tour include:
8252 Ben Nevis Drive
8332 Ben Nevis Drive
2124 Flodden Circle
8317 Robert Bruce Drive
8255 Greenock Drive
