Grissom/Highland blends in-town convenience with low-key residential streets, placing you minutes from the restaurants, coffeehouses, and civic life of Blacksburg. Many homes here sit on generous lots with mature trees, and everyday errands are easy thanks to quick access to North Main Street, campus, and trailheads. Cyclists and runners appreciate the easy connection to the Huckleberry Trail, while frequent routes from Blacksburg Transit make commuting car-light and stress-free.
Education is a major draw. The neighborhood is served by Montgomery County Public Schools; families can review attendance information and programs through the district at Montgomery County Public Schools. Proximity to Virginia Tech enriches daily life with public lectures, art exhibits, and Division I athletics, all close enough to enjoy without planning an entire day around parking.
Weekends are pleasantly full: picnic at a nearby town park, browse the farmers market downtown, or catch a film at the historic Lyric before grabbing dinner with friends. When you want a change of scene, regional outings are simple—shopping and additional trail mileage await in Christiansburg, and riverfront recreation is a short drive to Radford.
If you’re considering a move, Grissom/Highland offers an easygoing pace with the perks of a college town. Whether you’re buying or selling, Agent Pronto can quickly match you with a top local agent who knows this pocket of town inside and out.
