Charlottesville is more than a place to live; it’s a place to call home. Nestled in Central Virginia, just east of the Blue Ridge Mountains, residents enjoy endless natural beauty with amenities and cultural attractions of a large metropolis.
Charlottesville’s unique pedestrian-only Downtown Mall offers shopping at over 120 locally-owned gift and clothing boutiques, antique stores, art galleries, and bookstores. It’s also home to several famous venues for music, dance, and theatre–the Pavilion, the Southern Café and Music Hall, the Jefferson Theatre, the historic Paramount, and Live Arts–to name a few.
Perhaps one of the greatest perks to living in Charlottesville is its proximity to the nation’s capital–located two hours north by car or train. On any given day, residents are within a few minutes’ drive of The Appalachian Trail and the Blue Ridge Parkway and just one hour to the state capital of Richmond, and about three hours to Virginia Beach.
Central Virginia is a hub for cultural and historic attractions such as Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello–a world heritage site, museum, research institute, presidential library, and private, non-profit organization. Not to mention that Montpelier, Williamsburg, and Ash-Lawn Highland are all located in our back yard.
