The Young Family of Chesterfield invites you to enjoy our special brand of Virginia hospitality at the Half Way House, Richmond's landmark for intimate fine dining. The Half Way House was built in 1760 on a grant of land from George II of England, by a patent dated 1743. The Manor House is original and furnished in authentic antiques.
