Charlottesville sits in Central Virginia at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Richmond is
one hour east and Washington, D.C.
Charlottesville real estate has been home to numerous important American Presidents including Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe and it was from Charlottesville
that Lewis and Clark departed from enroute to the Pacific Ocean.
Charlottesville is home to the 9th ranked college in America, The University of Virginia and the number 1 public university in the country.
Charlottesville real estate offers wonderful horse farms, condos, townhouses, historic plantations and luxury homes. It is the historic homes and farms
that make Charlottesville so popular amongst the wealthy.
Charlottesville earned the accolade of being: "The prettiest Georgian city in America in 1790." And
today much of the original architecture still stands including over 20 structures designed by Thomas Jefferson.
Keswick, a small town 5 mins. northeast of Charlottesville, is where many of the most spectacular
farms and estates are located. Peter Jefferson (Thomas' father) & Nicholas Lewis (Meriwether's father)owned much
of this area in the early 19th century. The Keswick Road was named the third Most Scenic Road In America by the US Government.
Charlottesville is merely the city which sits in Albemarle County. And as a small, cultured city,
Charlottesville offers more music venues than any other city except Ney York and LA for its size. The
Dave Mathews Band is based here and they are primarily responsible for making Charlottesville the music mecca it is today.
The land around Charlottesville is very similar to England's rolling, verdant, pastoral countryside
making this area a fabulous place to foxhunt. Charlottesville has two distinct fox hunting clubs, the Farmington Hunt &
Keswick Hunt.
So with all this in mind including the fabulous private & public schools, you really
should consider looking at Charlottesville real estate as your next investment. Call us Toby Beavers 877-855-7913
