Main Street is revitalizing, bringing foot traffic to 10th and Page
In the not-too-distant past, the stretch of Main Street that passes through the 10th and Page neighborhood was considered by many locals a kind of no man’s land. “Students just wouldn’t walk that far, and certainly not up to the Amtrak station near Main and 8th Street,” says Monroe Allen, a real estate associate with Sotheby’s International and a 2018 graduate of the University of Virginia. Largely, there was no reason to – but in recent years, development has brought shops, hotels, chain eateries and sleek brick multi-use buildings. It’s up for debate whether the neighborhood has crested into revitalized status. “They’re trying to have offices on the ground floor of those multi-use buildings and then fill the upper floors with housing, but I’m not sure if that trend has fully taken off yet,” Allen says. Still, the sensory stimulus is palpable in this zone just outside of university grounds, and that’s enough to attract attention from newcomers and veteran residents alike. “For all intents and purposes, this part of Charlottesville has become a one-stop shop,” says Steve Michaels, who’s been an early childhood educator in the city for 13 years.

Shopping and dining at 10th and Main, 10th and Preston
Food options are clustered like a barbell at two ends of the neighborhood: near the south end where 10th Street converges on Main, and further north, where 10th and Preston Avenue converge. Next door in the Venable neighborhood, Main is already known as an eatery-lined place to stroll, feeding off the foot traffic of the university across the street. But while Venable has restaurants with the patina of decades past, this area is devoted more to polished eateries. Kung Fu Tea is a bubble tea store with a bright, open room to sit in. Potbelly is an established sandwich chain, while Box’d Kitchen is a newer Virginia-based franchise focusing on fresh boxed takeout meals. Near 10th and Preston, the Dairy Market is a popular Charlottesville institution. It’s housed in the 1930s Monticello Dairy building, and brings together everything from Asian to American cuisines in a food hall format. Across the street is Integral Yoga Natural Foods, a small locally owned health food store containing snacks, produce, drinks, frozen goods and bulk food items.

Cottages and bungalows from the upper $200,000s
Cottages and bungalows with small yards and fences are frequently seen here. These single-level homes usually have some form of yard and a fence, but the real appeal is their price: upper $200,000s to $350,000. Compare this to Venable, the next neighborhood to the west, where homes typically approach the million-dollar mark. There are multi-story options, too. Brick colonials from the 1920s are perched on raised lots, reachable by stoops. They sell in the $500,000 to $600,000 range. Newer construction from around 2005 is available, too: this typically shows up as a modern three-bedroom colonial with covered front porch. These also range from $500,000 to $600,000. Overall, pops of pastel color give the homes in this neighborhood a vibrant, trendy look.

Peaceful reflection at Jenkins Park
Jenkins Park, the only park in 10th and Page, is peaceful enough but more like a reflection space. Overlooked by the trestle where Eighth Street and Seventh Street fork, it’s accessed by a set of stairs leading to a grassy square surrounded by benches. Otherwise, the nearby college campus provides plenty of athletic recreation opportunities, like at the Snyder Tennis Center. Residents can also bounce north into the Ride Hill neighborhood, just on the other side of Preston Avenue, where Booker T. Washington Park offers playgrounds, a pool and a baseball field.
Flowers are planted each year in the community garden at Jenkins Park.
10th and Page is a short 6 minutes from downtown Charlottesville.

Main Street connects to downtown and campus
This neighborhood is highly walkable. Sidewalks are present in some residential stretches, but more importantly pedestrians can take Main west to campus grounds and popular nightlife spots or go east toward the downtown mall.

Preston Avenue on the north side can be taken east to McIntire Road, one of the major thoroughfares of Charlottesville that connects with Route 250.
