Commonly referred to as Virginia’s western center for commerce, finance, entertainment, transportation and travel, Roanoke is a growing metropolitan city that offers a high quality of life to its residents and is exemplified by natural beauty. An exquisite landscape of rivers, mountains, hills, forests and lakes create an environment that makes this larger southern city feel like home.
There are numerous opportunities for individuals interested in real estate ventures. The options in Roanoke are unbounded and competitively low. The average cost for housing is approximately $210,000. The fact that Roanoke has also one countless awards recognizing it being a first-class place to live also adds to the value of the city. Several of these awards include being named one of the top ten places to raise a family by Parenting magazine, five time winner of the All American City award and named the third best small, southern city for living by Money magazine.
Roanoke recently celebrated its 125th anniversary, complete with a weekend of festivities. Though this town doesn’t particularly need an occasion of that magnitude to celebrate, as the Calendar of Events is flooded with fun and educational activities throughout the year. From museums, theatres, art galleries, ballet and opera to golf courses, parks, pools, bowling alleys, tennis courts and skate parks, Roanoke truly is a big city will small town values.
