When most folks think of Montpelier they think of James Madison, and for good reason. The home to the former president is open for visitors and a great place to explore and learn. Montpelier today has grown into a vibrant bedroom community mostly serving the suburbs of Richmond. As a result, this area is highly sought-after. Here you’ll find a nice mix of older estates, equestrian farms, as well as a balanced mix of ranch and colonial style homes. For those who would like a little more fun Kings Dominion it’s just a short drive to the east.
