A new townhome development just north of Richmond’s Northside is starting to take shape and is now set to include about two dozen lower-priced homes.
StyleCraft Homes has started building an initial batch of what’s planned to total 160 townhomes along Chamberlayne Avenue north of Azalea Avenue.
Called The Crossings at Mulberry, the 16-acre development is across Chamberlayne from Brookhill Azalea Shopping Center and beside the post office at Chamberlayne’s intersection with Wilmer Avenue.

StyleCraft, which is based in nearby Lakeside, held a ribbon-cutting Saturday to kick off sales and open the development’s model home.
Henrico County Supervisor Roscoe Cooper, whose Fairfield District includes the site, was on hand for the ceremony, which also announced that 25 of the homes will be priced lower through StyleCraft’s participation in Henrico’s Affordable Housing Trust Fund.
Saturday’s ceremony kicked off sales and opened a model unit.
Launched last year, the fund provides grant subsidies to developers that set aside a number of homes for first-time homebuyers making 60-120% of the area median income. Other residential developments that have qualified for the fund so far include HHHunt’s Parkside Townes and Mungo Homes’ Discovery Ridge.

Price ranges for StyleCraft’s trust fund homes were not specified. The rest of the two-story townhomes at The Crossings at Mulberry will start in the low $300,000s for 1,500-square-foot floorplans with three bedrooms and 2½ bathrooms.
The homes also will include an upstairs loft and a single-car garage. Community amenities will include a dog park, walking trails and a pavilion.
Site development got underway last year, following StyleCraft’s $1.6 million purchase of the two parcels that make up the site. StyleCraft purchased the land from the family of the late Julia Robins, who had owned the property since at least the late 1980s.

The project adds to StyleCraft’s local workload, which includes about 200 townhomes it’s building at Westchester Commons in Chesterfield County.
It also adds to other multifamily residential development taking shape along that stretch of Chamberlayne. Farther north, Crescent Development and Spy Rock Real Estate Group are developing the 186-unit Helios Apartments at the former Days Inn of Richmond site near the Chamberlayne/I-95 interchange.
