Is Crozet Virginia a good place to live? You better believe it.
Crozet living offers everyone something. There are new homes, townhomes, apartments, historic homes, and farms.
But Crozet real estate prices are getting nutty thanks to large builders like Stanley Martin Homes mass-producing new homes for sale in Crozet VA.
Crozet is located at the base of the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains in Western Albemarle County 18 mins from the city of Charlottesville.
The views are spectacular and orchards and vineyards are everywhere. The area is very historic.
Crozet borders the Shenandoah National Park and offers wonderful hiking and mountain biking.
The ancient Blue Ridge Mountains surround the entire valley that Crozet sits in so everywhere you look you’ll see pastoral, verdant farms. Crozet VA farms for sale are highly sought after.

Glenbrook at Foothill Crossing

Crozet Virginia History
Crozet, Virginia was named for Claudius Crozet, Napoleon Bonaparte’s chief engineer.
When Napoleon was defeated at the Battle of Waterloo and banished to Elba, the United States contacted him about heading the fledgling Army Corps of Engineers.
Crozet agreed and the rest is history.
Crozet engineered the numerous tunnels through the Blue Ridge and Alleghany Mountains opening up the Shenandoah and Ohio Valley to new settlements.
Today, Crozet is known across America for its sweet peaches and tasty apples. The Albemarle Pippin originated here and was the favorite apple of King George III.
What I Like About Crozet Living: It’s extremely family-oriented; the schools are excellent and all schools are located in Crozet. So easy for you moms!
The location is spectacular and it’s a safe place to live.
Wintergreen Ski Resort is a mere 30 mins southwest and enjoys watching polo matches on Sundays in the Spring and Fall at King Family Vineyard.
The public schools are excellent.
The roadways are pot-hole-free and there are four full seasons.
