The Villa campus is lined with spacious fields that can be used for virtually any sporting or outdoor event.
Brook Road Field 1 is typically used for all kinds of sports-related activities, including soccer and flag football. It’s larger than a football field with additional space available for other activities.
Brook Road Field 2 is the perfect location for events that want the attention of the busy Parham Road and Brook Road intersection!
With its easy accessibility and entrance off of Parham Road, this field is ideal for various sports leagues in Central VA. You’ll often see practices and full competitions held on this space.

One of our newest amenities designed to promote children’s health, this fenced-in area on the north end of campus features playground equipment, accessible exercise stations, a shade pavilion, and an outdoor basketball court. It’s the perfect place for children and adults to get out, be active, and socialize!
Our campus perimeter road is a private road and measures approximately 1 mile in distance. Within the perimeter road, our brick mall provides a beautiful walking loop surrounded by the exquisite 1930’s architecture of the Villa’s cottages, administration building, chapel and schools. Two laps on the brick mall equal 1 mile.
