In the shadows of the Blue Ridge Mountains'
majestic peaks, families are joining together in The Villages of Maple Ridge-a
community celebrating nature and a slower, richer pace of life.
Ridges, ravines, trees and open green space
offer natural separations between the five distinct neighborhoods of The
Villages of Maple Ridge, a 177-acre planned community. Tree-lined streets and
pathways wind through the neighborhoods of large-acre estate lots, custom
homes, quality single-family homes, and leased, luxury townhomes. Common areas
take full advantage of the setting's abundant natural beauty while inviting a
sense of community. 
The Villages of Maple Ridge is located one
mile from downtown Blacksburg, Virginia. The state's largest town, Blacksburg
offers a culturally diverse population and high-tech influence, thanks to the
presence of Virginia Tech-Virginia Polytechnic and State University.
Nestled in the foothills of the
Washington-Jefferson National Forest and in the New River Valley, to town has
earned its reputation as a prim location for outdoor enthusiasts and nature
lovers. It was recently named a top-ten place to live in the U.S by both Men's
Journal and Outside Magazine, which noted that its "
setting in the New
River Valley is as unpretentious as its inhabitants: an uncrowded ground zero
for backpackers, boaters, climbers and cyclists
" 
The Villages of Maple Ridge takes full advantage of its natural location. Abundant opportunities for walking, jogging, biking, and hiking nearby include the Huckleberry Trail, linking Downtown Blacksburg to the New River Valley Mall and the Appalachian Trail.

Remodeling and Renovations >Do Not Over Improve
You have received some extra money! You want to remodel! If you are planning a major renovation, take a few sensible precautions before having plans drawn up and signing on the contractor's dotted line.
Any time you do any significant remodeling, you run the risk of over-improving your home. Please call or send an email if you are interested in a market analysis of what your home is currently worth. We can talk about neighborhood trends and discuss the recent sales of homes in your area.
If your neighborhood is experiencing healthy appreciation, making major changes to your home might make sense. However, if there is not much difference between the prices of remodeled homes and those which have not been renovated, expensive changes may be hard to recover if you sell your home soon. Please call or send an email to get help deciding if remodeling and renovations are in your best interest.
