Kingswood is one of Spotsylvania County’s established and sought-after residential communities, offering a classic suburban feel with a focus on active lifestyles and community engagement. Located in the 22408 zip code, it sits strategically off Harrison Road, providing a quiet retreat that remains minutes away from the hustle of Fredericksburg.
The neighborhood is characterized by its mature, tree-lined streets and a mix of architectural styles, though Colonial and traditional split-levels dominate the landscape. Most homes were built between the late 1980s and the early 2000s, featuring:
Spacious Lots: Properties typically range from 0.3 to 0.6 acres, offering flat, usable yards that are often fenced or backed by wooded buffers.
Diverse Sizes: You’ll find everything from cozy 1,600 sq. ft. ramblers to expansive 4,000+ sq. ft. family homes.
The Estates at Kingswood: A newer section of the community that features larger, more modern builds with upscale finishes like vaulted ceilings and three-car garages.
Kingswood is well-known for its robust Homeowners Association (HOA), which maintains a high standard for community facilities. Residents have access to:
Aquatics & Sports: A community pool (with lifeguards), newly resurfaced tennis and pickleball courts, and a basketball court.
Green Spaces: Large soccer/baseball fields and several playgrounds (tot lots) for children.
Community Center: A clubhouse available for neighborhood events and private gatherings.
Social Scene: The neighborhood is described as "inviting and charming," where it is common to see neighbors walking dogs or jogging along the wide primary boulevards.
One of Kingswood’s biggest selling points is its "Goldilocks" location—it feels tucked away but is remarkably close to major transit and shopping hubs:
Commuting: Situated between I-95 (Exits 130 and 126) and Route 1, making it an ideal spot for those commuting to Northern Virginia or Richmond. The Spotsylvania VRE station is also a short drive away.
Shopping & Dining: You are roughly 10–15 minutes from Central Park, Southpoint II, and Cosner’s Corner, covering every major retailer and restaurant chain in the region.
Schools: Served by the Spotsylvania County Public School system, specifically Battlefield Elementary, Chancellor Middle, and Chancellor High School.
Pro Tip: If you are looking for a house in Kingswood, keep an eye on the Estates at Kingswood section if you prefer more recent construction, or the original Kingswood Boulevard loop for homes with larger, more established tree canopies.
