Discover Dunlora Park: Easy Living Near Downtown Charlottesville
June 13, 2025
Looking for a home that checks the boxes without adding a bunch of extra to-dos to your weekend? Dunlora Park might be just what you’re looking for. Tucked just off Rio Road in Albemarle County, right on the edge of Charlottesville city limits, this small-but-mighty townhome community offers modern design, low-maintenance living, and a location that’s close to, well… just about everything.
Smart Design, Built for Everyday Life
These are townhomes made for real life—not too big, not too small, and full of the features that make daily living easier:
- 3 bedrooms
- 2 full baths and 2 half baths
- 1,890 square feet
- Two-car garage (and yes, you can actually park in it)
- Two-story layouts with open living spaces, plus basements with rec rooms
Prices range from the low to mid $500s, and a handful of homes will be ready as soon as August and September 2025. So, if you're someone who likes to plan ahead, this is your window.
Close to Everything
Dunlora Park gives you all the perks of a central location without the noise and congestion. You’re just:
- 6 minutes to Route 29
- 10 minutes to Downtown Charlottesville
- 15 minutes to the UVA Hospital and Grounds
- 10 minutes to Pantops
- 20 minutes to Hollymead
- 25 minutes to NGIC and DIA
Whether you're heading to work, grabbing takeout, or catching a game, you’ll be there in no time. And if biking is your thing? You’re in luck; bike lanes run right past the neighborhood, making it easy to get around on two wheels.
Trails and Trees
Even though Dunlora Park is close to it all, it still offers room to breathe. The community connects directly to the John Warner Parkway Trail, a paved path that leads to McIntire Park and the Rivanna River Trail. It's perfect for morning walks, weekend bike rides, or an after-work loop to reset your day. You’ll also be right near 49 acres of parkland, giving you a quiet green space to enjoy just steps from home.
Why Dunlora Park?
It’s not every day you find a brand-new townhome in an established part of Albemarle County. Dunlora Park gives you the chance to live in a location that’s central, connected, and already loved by locals, with all the perks of a new home and none of the maintenance headaches.
Homes are actively selling now, and with just a few homesites left, it’s a good time to take the next step.
