Southside Area of Charlottesville Overview

Whether you are searching for a home minutes to Charlottesville or in the country, Southside offers plenty of options. Just off the southern edge of the Charlottesville city limits, there are numerous neighborhoods and housing options convenient to Downtown Charlottesville, UVA Grounds, and both hospitals. Many of these neighborhoods were built within the last 10-15 years and offer community amenities. There are still some new home opportunities offering a variety of single family, townhomes, and condominiums. However, as you move further south from Charlottesville, the landscape changes from planned neighborhoods to rural land. This Southern section of Albemarle offers historic estates to homes on large acreage parcels to single homes on private lots. The town of Scottsville, located in Southern Albemarle on the James River, is undergoing a quiet renaissance in recent years. Many of the oldest buildings in the Historic District along Main Street are being carefully restored and filled with boutique shops and barbecue joints. Other Southern Albemarle towns like North Garden and Covesville are becoming more popular since homes and land are still relatively affordable. Whether you are looking to go tubing on the James, visit historic Monticello, or spend an afternoon at one of the area's four large County parks, Southside and Southern Albemarle offer some of the best that Albemarle County has to offer.
