In 1971, HHHunt developed its first master-planned community in Blacksburg, Virginia. Hethwood included four distinct neighborhoods with single-family homes, apartment homes, and an array of luxurious amenities never seen during that time. Since then, we have developed 19 master-planned communities in Richmond, Raleigh, and Smith Mountain Lake with eight currently under construction and two in the planning phase. Our master-planned community division, HHHunt Communities, has become one of the largest and most celebrated real estate developers in the mid-Atlantic. We want to take this opportunity to share our long history of home building excellence.
Redefining the Suburbs
In 1985, HHHunt purchased 300-acres off Broad Street west of Interstate 64 in Henrico County. At the time, there were very few homes or businesses in the area. However, Harry H. Hunt, III had a vision to make this 300-acres into a destination where homeowners of all ages and backgrounds could enjoy a self-contained environment with schools, shopping centers, offices, medical facilities, libraries, and churches. Wellesley was born. When finished, Wellesley included 800 homes in eighteen neighborhoods with a variety of world-class amenities. We then set out to develop other master-planned communities in the western part of Henrico including Wyndham, Twin Hickory, and Wyndham Forest.

At HHHunt, our Vision is to improve the world and how people live by creating meaningful experiences and places of great distinction. Our team of professionals is always seeking new ways to cultivate friendships and lasting relationships between homeowners. Whether that be through our unique method of designing our master-planned communities or the community amenities we develop we want our homeowners to feel that their community is a place that enhances their quality of life.
