The Larchmont neighborhood, surrounding a triangular green space and bordered by the Lafayette River, was developed in 1906 by the firm Bellamy and Hough. Located five miles from downtown Norfolk, it was considered “country” by the locals, which inspired the developing firm to create its own bus line, called the Larchmont Transit Company. This allowed residents to enjoy a neighborhood with spacious, elegant homes; expansive, bucolic gardens; and life on the river. Today, this neighborhood is known for its beautifully maintained and restored 100-year-old homes, as well as outdoor spaces that make residents proud to call this place home.
