A rural crossroad in Hanover County already slated for a large mixed-use development could see a similar, albeit smaller, project across the street.
Local development firm Rogers-Chenault is proposing Stags Village, a four-building project that would rise at 8139 Rural Point Road. The project area is a little south of Hanover High School.
The firm has filed a rezoning request for the project, which would include three buildings with ground-floor commercial space that totals 21,000 square feet built beneath age-restricted condos, and a fourth building dedicated solely to age-restricted condos.
The rezoning request is anticipated to go before the Hanover Planning Commission in October or November, Rogers-Chenault President Todd Rogers said in an interview Thursday.
The commissioners will make a recommendation on the project to the Board of Supervisors, which will have the final say on approval of the zoning request.
The development is proposed to have a total of 127 condo units. Amenities would include pickleball courts, a patio and a barbecue pit area, among other features. The ground-floor commercial portions of the development’s buildings are intended for restaurants, retailers and office user, Rogers said.
He said the plan was to price the condos, which would be limited to people age 55 and older, at $300,000 to $350,000 apiece.
“(Business partner Mike Chenault) and I are really excited about the potential of bringing something more affordable for active adults than some of the other housing that’s out there right now (in Hanover),” Rogers said.
The developer is under contract to buy the 9-acre project site pending approval of the rezoning request. The property, which is currently zoned agricultural, has a crop field as well as a house on it.

The proposal for Stags Village follows Rogers-Chenault’s rezoning request for a 5-acre property just a few yards down the road that would set the stage for 14 age-restricted townhomes and an 18,000-square-foot commercial building fronting Chamberlayne Road.
That project is likewise anticipated to get a hearing before the Planning Commission in the next couple of months. The developer also has that property under contract.
Rogers said that property, at 10052 Chamberlayne Road, would be an expansion of the developer’s Stags Trail residential development that’s already underway.
Stags Trail, along with another residential development under construction by Rogers-Chenault called Stags Leap, represent a combined 144 attached and detached homes situated in the vicinity of the Chamberlayne Avenue and Rural Point Road intersection.
The properties being eyed by Rogers-Chenault for rezoning are across Chamberlayne from Caldwell Park, a large mixed-use project that has been years in the making and is anticipated to have 232 apartments, 185 townhomes and up to 200,000 square feet of commercial space.
Caldwell Park developer Larry Shaia said last week the plan is to break ground on the 67-acre project’s first residential units in about a year. Work started on the site’s infrastructure in January. The assemblage that makes up the site includes 10077 Chamberlayne Road.
“If everything goes really well, I’m hoping we break ground on the apartments in the summer,” Shaia said.
Shaia said a 14-acre commercial piece of Caldwell Park will be handled by a separate, unnamed developer who has that portion under contract. That section is planned to be home to the main 65,000-square-foot retail center. Additional commercial space is planned in multiple outparcels within the development.
In addition to the Shaia and Rogers-Chenault projects, Sheetz is planning to build a gas station at 10097 Chamberlayne Road, which would rise across New Ashcake Road from Caldwell Park.
Rogers-Chenault’s is pitching its new projects after suing the Hanover Board of Supervisors for its rejection of a subdivision the firm proposed elsewhere in the county, a legal matter that’s still underway.

If these 55+ units are to be 2 story with stairs and steps they are a waste. That would make these units not 55+ friendly
Many first time condo buyers are healthy older people who are downsizing and they don’t always buy a home with the idea of staying there forever. On average people move every 8 years and not having any maintenance may outweigh a one flight of steps.
Jean is correct – 55-60 yr olds do not move every 8 years – that is a 30 something game. From age 60 they MAY move twice, 1st to the maintenance free home WITHOUT stairs, and lastly to a nursing home.
Victoria, the average life expectancy is now 77 in the US, which only allows for about 2 moves per the average of moving every 8 years figure I stated. The 30-somethings I know move more like every 3-5 years.
I’m with you. Moving sucks and I think 55-60 is the lower range of the downsizers. I think once moved, they would not be picking up and leaving in 8 years. That said, this looks like a really exciting project to give a great option for downsizers. Good job, Chenaults!
There is large need for 55+ real estate in all areas but especially in Hanover and especially at this price point. This development helps fill that void and will sell quickly. Smart move by RCI, and congratulations!
