Locust Grove real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Locust Grove real estate market, updated for May 2026. *
Over the past year, Locust Grove has seen a sharp shift in home values. The typical home value is now about $445,000, down roughly 56.65% year over year, a much steeper drop than Charlottesville’s 9.87% decline. Despite this, values here still trail the city’s typical value of about $511,500.
March activity helps clarify how the market feels on the ground. Homes spent a median of 21.5 days on the market, up more than 43% from a year ago and over 65% from the prior month, signaling buyers are taking more time. Inventory held at 8 homes, unchanged year over year but up 33.33% month over month, while 14 new listings came on and 13 went under contract. Only about 10% of sales closed above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio of roughly 0.97 suggests modest negotiation room rather than aggressive bidding.
Looking ahead to April 2026, typical home value in Locust Grove is projected around $361,500, with median list price expected near $514,175 and inventory edging up to 9 homes. Even with these shifts, conditions still tilt toward sellers, as reflected in the Seller's Market gauge of 6. In a neighborhood moving this quickly and differently from the broader Charlottesville market, buyers and sellers can both benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting them with a knowledgeable local agent.

Learn more about what Locust Grove has to offer.
Locust Grove offers residents a welcoming, walkable community with well-maintained green spaces, active neighborhood groups, and easy access to parks, schools, and local amenities.
Locust Grove in Charlottesville stands out from nearby neighborhoods like Belmont and Fifeville with its quieter, leafy streets and strong sense of long term residents alongside newer arrivals. Tucked just north of downtown, it offers quick access to the Downtown Mall while maintaining a more relaxed, residential feel.
Tree lined blocks with mid century homes and newer infill construction give Locust Grove a consistent, well kept look. Residents appreciate being close to McIntire Park for sports fields and walking paths, as well as the Rivanna Trail for miles of wooded hiking and running along the river. Families value local schools within Charlottesville City Schools, including Burnley Moran Elementary. Everyday errands are convenient, with shops and services along nearby Preston Avenue and an easy drive to the University of Virginia.
Locust Grove residents often connect around parks, school events, and in town spots like IX Art Park and the Jefferson Madison Regional Library. The neighborhood attracts buyers who want proximity to downtown without giving up yard space, parking, and a quieter block.
Because homes here do not come on the market in large numbers, timing and preparation matter. Whether you are planning to buy into Locust Grove or sell and move within Charlottesville, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local real estate professional who knows how to navigate this specific neighborhood for both buyers and sellers.

“I cannot recommend Wes Sparks at eXp Realty highly enough! My father and I recently worked with Wes to sell my father's home, and the entire experience was seamless, professional, and incredibly successful. From our very first meeting, it was clear that Wes is an expert in his field. He brought a wealth of market knowledge and a strategic approach that gave us immediate confidence. Selling a family home can often be an emotional and complex process, but Wes handled everything with the utmost respect and patience.”

“I highly recommend Bree Cox to anyone purchasing a home, she's incredibly knowledgable of the market and reading both buyers and sellers alike. I came into this as a first-time homebuyer and she was so patient and willing to explain things multiple times without me feeling as though I was a burden which is a big source of anxiety for me going into this. Bree made a time that is a huge stress for most people feel completely managable. I put a lot of trust in her and she exceeded my expectations every step of the way. My next purchase is a long way off but I hope when that time comes I have the pleasure of working with Bree again!”

“Working with Carla was an experience that exceeded our expectations in every regard. As first-time homebuyers, we entered the process with a steep learning curve, but Carla ensured we were thoroughly educated at every stage. She provided what I can only describe as a library’s worth of expertise and support throughout the entire process. From the initial search to the final closing, her attention to detail and proactive communication meant that no step was overlooked. Because of her commitment to keeping us informed, we transitioned into homeownership feeling fully prepared and confident. For any first-time buyer looking for a realtor who prioritizes both professional execution and client education, we cannot recommend Carla highly enough.”

“James was amazing coming in and telling me exactly what needed to be done in order to sell and get what was needed out of it. James made a couple calls and had contractors in the house the very next Monday. 2 weeks later the house was complete and ready to be staged and on the market. James knows the market and how to make things happen. 48hrs on market and contract was on house! All this while he was extremely professional, friendly and mostly compassionate as I had just lost my dad. His communication is fabulous. Best thing about James he will Always have a recommendation from me.”
