A sizable property in the path of the planned Woolridge Road extension project in Chesterfield is being teed up for hundreds of new homes.
Midlothian-based TC Development has filed applications for rezoning and conditional-use approvals for a 443-unit development consisting of townhomes and condominiums on 107 acres northwest of Otterdale and Old Hundred roads.
The site straddles the southern end of the planned Woolridge Road extension that will join Woolridge’s existing sections from Old Hundred Road to its interchange with Route 288 to the north. The land makes up part of the 1,300-acre Roseland development that was proposed in 2008 but stalled amid the housing crisis and economic downturn.
TC Development is looking to develop 275 townhomes and 168 stacked condos that would be accessed via the Woolridge extension and Old Hundred Road. A site plan shows the condos would be located on the west side of Woolridge, while the bulk of the townhomes would fill the rest of the western portion of the site.
About three dozen townhomes could be located on the east side of Woolridge, according to one of two conceptual layouts submitted to the county.
Called Crossroads at Roseland, the development would include a pool, shared-use path, dog park and other amenities, and it would conform to the established Roseland Zoning Overlay District.

The project also would involve road and pedestrian improvements along Woolridge and Old Hundred, with TC paying the county $1.6 million in cash proffers for road improvements and $1 million toward construction of a drainage crossing across Tomahawk Creek.
TC Development secured the 107 acres last December, when an LLC tied to the firm paid $6.3 million for four of the five parcels that make up the site. The seller in that deal was Crossroads Development Partners, a Henrico-based entity that had bought the bulk of the land in 2018 for $1.4 million, and two more parcels in 2022 for $700,000.
The fifth parcel that makes up the assemblage – about a dozen acres at 2041 Old Hundred Road – was purchased last September for $1.6 million. TC bought that parcel from G.B.S. Holding Ltd., the Roseland entity that was led by the late Buddy Sowers and his son Casey Sowers.
The addresses of the other parcels are 1911, 1921, 2001 and 2131 Old Hundred Road. The five parcels were most recently assessed by Chesterfield County at $6.7 million combined.
Hirschler attorney Jeff Geiger is representing TC in its rezoning and conditional-use requests, which had been scheduled to go before the Planning Commission at its meeting this week but were deferred at the request of Clover Hill District Commissioner Elizabeth Hardin. The deferral to the commission’s June 17 meeting is intended to give TC more time to finalize the proposal.
TC principal John Costello is listed in the documents as the applicant. A call to Costello was not returned.
The development would be among the biggest yet for TC, whose other projects include Dogwood Creek, a nearly 300-home development on 178 acres south of Genito Road near its intersection with Bailey Farm Road.

Crossroads at Roseland would add to other investments that have been made along the path of the Woolridge Road extension, which is planned to start construction this fall.
Four years ago, father-and-son developers Mark and Matt Sowers purchased four lots totaling 130 acres immediately north of TC’s site. No plans have been filed with the county for that site, which Mark Sowers – Buddy’s brother – described at the time as an investment.
Mark and Buddy developed the nearby Hallsley, a 650-acre community that they sold to East West Communities in 2013, the year before Buddy died.
Immediately east of TC’s site is land owned by Bill Goodwin’s Riverstone Properties, which picked up 600 acres through the foreclosure of Roseland Village, adding to its holdings around its massive CenterPointe development.

And where do they expect these kids to go to school? The Board of Supervisors in Chesterfield are beyond incompetent
This land was rezoned for housing in 2008. Also, Chesterfield is in the process of building about $450 million worth of new schools.
I’m not disputing what you’re saying, but as a parent with one kid at Cosby and one headed for the new middle school (Deep Creek), I can tell you both schools are seriously over capacity, even the new middle school that hasn’t opened. In other words, there are already more students in the school zones than the schools were built to handle, so any new additions aren’t properly accounted for.
The new HS that’s going to open off Duval Road in 2027 will relieve the overcrowding at Cosby. And I don’t know how the new middle school could possibly be overcrowded since it doesn’t open until August and the school system still has to redraw attendance zones reflecting 1,800 seats of additional middle school capacity. Also, if you look at the data for this year, CCPS enrollment has been pretty much flat. We’re getting a lot of people moving into the county who either don’t have kids or are empty-nesters. With declining birth rates and thousands of additional seats coming… Read more »

Maybe it is in there somewhere … who is the builder in there?

Townhouse elevations #59345-40A,just blow the dust off the set of plans.
It’s my understanding that Chesterfield has over 1,000 projects on file that have received Planning Commission approval in past years that were never started. As in no dirt moved. If even 1/10th of these were home developments, and began construction in a 2-year period, imagine the impact on utilities, amenities, and infrastructure! Over and beyond what’s actually in motion!
