Arrington, VA Mobile Home for Sale

Arrington, Virginia, is a small rural community in southern Nelson County, set between Charlottesville and Lynchburg along U.S. Route 29. With fewer than 800 residents, it appeals to people who want country living while commuting about 42 miles to Charlottesville or 30 miles to Lynchburg. Homes sit along two-lane roads on spacious, tree-lined lots, with many ranch-style houses and a mix of country retreats, plus a few newer builds. Lots often span around an acre, and some larger properties include outdoor features such as equestrian facilities, private trails and detached workspaces. Nelson County’s partnership with Firefly Fiber Broadband brings high-speed internet to Arrington, making remote work more practical in this otherwise car-dependent area with no sidewalks or public transit. Students are zoned for Nelson County Public Schools, a district with generally solid ratings and a range of extracurriculars at the high school level, including an active Future Farmers of America chapter. Outdoor recreation centers on Lake Nelson, a 40-acre reservoir with a public boat ramp limited to electric motors, and nearby James River State Park and the Virginia Blue Ridge Railway Trail. The historic Oak Ridge Estate hosts large-scale events and the Oak Ridge Fox Hunt Club. Day-to-day shopping is limited to a post office, a small convenience store and nearby farm markets, so residents typically drive to Lovingston, less than 10 miles away, or follow the Nelson 151 Craft Beverage Trail, which features multiple wineries, breweries, distilleries and cideries.
