Homes on large lots with a great school system
Roanoke locals might know Cave Spring as Southwest County. This is a desirable location for many residents, with top-rated schools and opportunities to find a recently built home on a large lot without a far commute to Roanoke’s city center or Salem, which are both about 6 miles away. This area is sometimes confused as its own locality because it has its own schools – Cave Spring Elementary, Middle and High schools – but it’s part of Roanoke, and its administrative buildings are located here. The area offers easy access to everyday amenities, like grocery and department stores, as well as beautiful views, where the Blue Ridge Mountains and their namesake hue are always visible in the distance. Realtor with MKB Realtors and Roanoke local Scott Avis describes Cave Spring as “a real clean part of Roanoke. It’s a well-kept area with a mixture of different types of residents – younger and older people.”
Split-level homes with spacious yards and garages are popular choices in Cave Spring.
Mid-century brick ranch homes are a classic and affordable option in Cave Spring, starting around $200K.

Housing that’s a mix of old and new
Homes in Cave Spring sit up and down the Blue Ridge’s slopes and curves, with wide, winding roads that contour with the landscape. Mature trees and wild brush sit on the sides of some streets, while large, neat and green lots dot others. There’s a mix between more established subdivisions, with properties from the 1980s and new neighborhoods with New Traditional houses. Potential homebuyers can find ranch-style, split-level or bilevel single-family homes, as well as two-bedroom townhouses, for between $200,000 and $400,000. Colonial Revivals and single-story properties with contemporary interiors and large lot sizes typically range from $500,000 to $700,000, while recently built New Traditional homes cost between $700,000 and $1 million.
Bi-level and ranch-style homes line Sorrell Lane in Cave Spring, offering variety and charm.

Weekends at Garst Mill Park, Hunting Hills Country Club and South County Library
Garst Mill Park is tucked within a residential area and roughly follows the Garst Mill Stream for about a mile, with bridges crossing the rushing water. Visitors wander the paved Garst Mill Greenway, kids run around the playground and pickleball players take to the courts. Golfers hit the links at Hunting Hills Country Club, where there are also tennis courts, swimming pools and restaurants. The Roanoke area is also surrounded by hiking trails and outdoor opportunities that keep locals busy on the weekends. And for some indoor recreation, the sprawling South County Library is located in Cave Spring. Here, residents can take part in the Caturday event, where folks read to cats, study for an upcoming exam or chill on a couch with a book.

Tanglewood and other shopping and dining destinations
The northeastern edge of the area is also home to the Tanglewood shopping mall, where residents can shop for clothing at stores like Belk, TJ Maxx, Sketchers and Burlington or eat out at one of the fast-casual and sit-down restaurants that line Electric Road. Near the center of Cave Spring, around the intersection of Electric Road and Brambleton Avenue, there’s a Kroger where residents can grocery shop and the popular Hamrick’s department store, where visitors can find discounted clothing, household items and more.
Tanglewood Mall on Cave Spring’s northeast edge offers shopping, dining, and big-box stores.

6 miles to downtown Roanoke and Salem
Electric Road and Brambleton Avenue, two of Roanoke’s major roadways, intersect in the center of Cave Spring. Avis notes, “You can get just about anywhere in Roanoke in about 20 minutes, and there’s not a ton of traffic.” Locals can reach Roanoke’s city center to the northeast or downtown Salem to the northwest in about 6 miles using Electric Road in either direction. Locals can also take Electric Road about 9 miles northeast to reach Vinton. Most people live and work in the area, but Avis notes that Smith Mountain Lake, about 40 miles east, is a popular destination for a weekend retreat or second home. In case of emergency, the LewisGale Medical Center borders the community. And when it’s time to fly, the Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport is about 12 miles north.
