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.

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…"

First Time Buyers >Finding A Real Estate Agent Finding an experienced, reliable real estate agent whom you like and trust is the first step in locating your new home. Here is an approach to finding the right agent. Call or stop by a real estate office and ask to speak with the manager. Describe the type of home you are looking for. The manager can refer you to an agent who knows that market very well. You might also use weekend "open houses" as opportunities to look for a real estate agent, as well as a new home. It is really a matter of chemistry! If you meet someone who is knowledgeable and with whom you feel comfortable, call that person! Once you establish a strong working relationship with a real estate agent, your agent can show you a number of homes for sale, even if they are listed with other companies. Often the agent can show you a property as soon as it is placed on the market. Many of the best homes never even make it to the weekend classified section of the newspaper!
