THE RAPPAHANNOCK RIVER COMPANY

Under all is the Land

Welcome to The Rappahannock River Company.

Across the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States, a new way of thinking is needed — one that requires a more deliberate focus on the highest and best use of the land upon which our communities are based.

From the bucolic vistas of Virginia Hunt Country to the salty environs of Maryland’s Eastern Shore, The Rappahannock River Company serves those who — in the dance of commerce and creativity — offer a path to more healthy and prosperous communities.

The Rappahannock River Company serves as a trusted platform to connect end users to trusted design professionals who aspire to create the home of their dreams.

Through our complimentary concierge service, we connect consumers who aspire to create a custom home — or simply improve the property which they already inhabit — with trusted design professionals who are experts in their field: licensed, bonded, insured, and perhaps most importantly, local.

As you browse our website, we trust you will find a valuable resource in our Home Services Guide, a premium directory of design professionals across the fields of residential architecture, interior design, custom home building, and landscape architecture and landscape design. For those who seek to learn more about the wonderful Mid-Atlantic region of the United States, our Guide to Living offers deep dives and histories of the Mid-Atlantic’s most important destinations and neighborhoods.

And for design professionals who seek to grow their business in a thoughtful and pragmatic manner, we invite you to join our Partner Network, where you can access a premium suite of advertising, marketing, and sponsorship opportunities designed to position your practice as a trusted advisor in the communities that matter most.

Our Values

The Rappahannock River Company is a community focused on building healthy communities throughout the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. Here are some of the values we hold dear.

NON-TOXIC NEIGHBORHOODS

The Rappahannock River Company is committed to the tenants of the Non-Toxic Neighborhood movement, which aims to protect public health by building awareness around the risks of synthetic pesticide use in communal outdoor spaces — and training municipalities to implement organic and regenerative land management practices and policies.

HEALTHY HOMES

The Rappahannock River Company advocates for the implementation of healthy home incentive programs as a means to prevent, identify, and address environmental hazards in the home that can affect the health and safety of those who live there.

STRONG TOWNS

The Rappahannock River Company advocates for the Strong Towns movement, which advocates for local governments to activate safe, livable, and inviting plans for the ongoing development of the cities and small towns throughout the Mid-Atlantic.

HISTORIC PRESERVATION

The Rappahannock River Company believes in the ideals of historic preservation as a means to create more sustainable communities and govern speculative and low quality development.

LAND CONSERVATION

The Rappahannock River Company believes in the ideals of land conservation as a means to promote and protect the natural resources, rural economies, unique history, and aesthetic beauty of communities throughout the Mid-Atlantic.

MIXED USED ZONING

The Rappahannock River Company believes in the pragmatic implementation of mixed use zoning as a means to create organic, diverse, and vibrant streetscapes while offering an effective antidote to urban sprawl and housing affordability.
