The Meadows Homes for Rent

The Meadows is a northern suburb of Charlottesville with a vibrant identity known for its midcentury charm and diverse housing options, including ranch-style homes and duplexes. While walkability is enhanced by wide streets and sidewalks, most residents rely on cars for accessing downtown Charlottesville and other destinations. The area sits where U.S. Route 29 and U.S. Route 250 intersect, making it a connector for shopping and commuting. The commercial corridor offers a mix of retail options, from big-box stores like Best Buy to designer brands such as Brooks Brothers and Lululemon. Dining ranges from fast-casual spots like Mezeh and Qdoba to local favorites like Bodo's Bagels and Grit Coffee. The Meadows also offers green spaces, including Meadow Creek Gardens and the Rivanna Trail. Students can attend Greenbrier Elementary and Charlottesville High, both of which are highly rated. Public city buses run through the neighborhood, and the Charlottesville-Albemarle Airport just 7 miles away.
