The Charlottesville Chamber Music Festival is back for a very special 15th season of continuing a longstanding tradition of bringing a wide variety of classical music to Central Virginia. This year we welcome musicians from all over the world who are ready to perform the great chamber works of Schubert, Brahms, Mozart, Vivaldi, and more, as well as Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto no. 2, Beethoven’s Eroica Symphony, and Mahler’s Symphony No. 4, the latter pieces arranged for large ensemble. Our players will also show off their experimental side with the modern works of Berio, Reich, Piazzola, and Brel. This is indeed a special year that will take place at The Paramount Theater. Additional performance for the Festival will take place at The Southern on the downtown mall, as well as UVA’s Old Cabell Hall, beginning September 7 through September 18!

Annual Charlottesville Salvation Army Telethon to Air on CBS 19 In cooperation with the Charlottesville Newsplex, The Charlottesville Corps of The Salvation Army is pleased to announce its second Annual Charlottesville Salvation Army Telethon. Presented by Better Living, Inc. will air on Tuesday night, October 21, 2014 from 6:00 – 8:00 pm. Other major sponsors include Woodard Properties and Neighborhood Properties.
If you knocked on the doors of the Salvation Army in need of shelter from the elements and a warm meal, would your knock be answered? While the economy in Charlottesville, Virginia and surrounding counties may be improving, The Charlottesville Salvation Army is suffering from deep federal and state funding cutbacks despite the fact that it continues to face increasing demands for services for the neediest in our community. Based on last year’s telethon success, The Salvation Army once again has partnered with the Charlottesville Newsplex who kindly made a multi-year commitment to air a 2-hour prime time fundraising telethon in support of the Army. The Army must raise $150,000 annually to replace funding for its shelter programs. Many volunteers make it possible to serve the Charlottesville community! In its Ridge Street building The Charlottesville Salvation Army serves more than 48,000 hot meals annually in the soup kitchen and gives refuge to over 90men, women and children who lack the necessities of life every single night of the year in its emergency shelter and Center of Hope housing facilities. The Corps is supported exclusively by donations from the community it serves. The Corps leadership is supported by The Charlottesville Salvation Army Advisory Board and Telethon, chaired by Bob Kahn, President and Principal Broker, Bob Kahn Realty & Investment. The Board serves in support of local Salvation Army initiatives. The Board’s membership includes a dedicated group of community-minded professionals. “For over 100 years The Charlottesville Salvation Army has served the less fortunate in our community. We are the primary safety net for those that are hungry and in need of basic shelter so they can rebuild their lives”, said Bob Kahn, Salvation Army Advisory Board member and Telethon Chair. “Now we are reaching out and asking local businesses and generous moms, dads and grandparents to make a donation to our telethon, a donation that truly represents hope, and food, and refuge for those less fortunate.” For more details on sponsorship opportunities, contact Bob Kahn, Advisory Board and Telethon Chair cvltelethon@gmail.com or (434 962-9434). Visit http://virginiasalvationarmy.org/ charlottesvilleva/ to give online. About the Charlottesville Corps of the Salvation Army The Charlottesville Corps of The Salvation Army is committed to “Doing the Most Good,” a daily mission to provide local, street-level solutions for
the homeless and needy population in Charlottesville. The Charlottesville Corps engages in “boots-on-theground” actions to mentor and encourage new habits and better choices, enabling recipients to move out of the need for assistance. We are the primary safety net for the greater Charlottesville area. We have zero tolerance for begging and addictive behaviors. Developed and refined over 100 years in service to the needy, our scope of services and approach to helping those in need is offered by no other organization, public or private, in our community. The Salvation Army provides services regardless of creed, race, gender or sexual orientation, and is consistently rated among the most efficient charities in America. “Doing the Most Good” in Charlottesville is achieved through two core operations: • Emergency Intervention: Helping stabilize lives in crisis, the Corps provides food, housing and social service intervention for the needy through the Emergency Shelter Program, Emergency Social Services Program, and Emergency Disaster Unit. • Initiative Support and Development: In addition to the generosity of local individual and corporate donors our local Corps relies on revenue-generating activities designed to underwrite the extensive ongoing services they provide in the Charlottesville area. The Salvation Army Family Store, Red Kettle Drive and Planned Giving programs are central to the ability of the Charlottesville Corps to serve the greater Charlottesville area. Located at 207 Ridge Street in Charlottesville, VA, The Charlottesville Corps of The Salvation Army provides services around the clock, every day of the year. The Charlottesville Corps is commanded by Majors Allen and Melinda Johnson. To contact the Corps offices during normal business hours Monday through Friday, call 434-2954058 or fax 434-295-6243. Find information about the Charlottesville Corps and donate online at http://virginiasalvationarmy.org/charlottesvilleva. Quick facts about the Charlottesville Corps of the Salvation Army: • Emergency Shelter - Provides housing for 93 men, women, and children every night. • Soup Kitchen - Served over 48,000 hot meals to the hungry in 2013. • Emergency Services - Over 3,000 people received emergency assisn tance in 2013.

Belmont!
A MODERN WALKABLE COMMUNITY with a Rich History BY CELESTE M. SMUCKER, PHD
oday’s Belmont is known for the charm of its older homes and the convenience of living near the downtown mall. It is attractive to a wide variety of people, especially those who like the idea of walking or biking to work, to parks, restaurants and entertainment venues. People love Belmont because of its easy accessibility to all of these activities and appreciate, as well, the easy driving distance to the interstate and to major roads connecting it to other important areas of town such as UVA, Pantops and the 29 corridor. In the earliest days of Charlottesville, the area that would one day become Belmont was popular because it was near the intersection of two major routes into town. One of these (described as more of a wilderness trail than a road by local historian James Buck) connected Richmond and Charlottesville and was called “three notched road” because of notches placed on trees marking the way. Three Notched Road intersected Old Scottsville Road, which brought traffic from the then site of Albemarle’s County Courthouse in Scottsville before it moved to Charlottesville in 1761. Over a hundred years later in 1886, the heirs of a large landowner named Slaughter W. Ficklin, sold his 551 acre estate called Belle-mont to the Belmont Land Company which divided the property into building lots, giving the area its name. While considered close-in today, Buck said that back then it was more of a “country suburb of a rapidly expanding Charlottesville.” No longer considered a suburb, today’s Belmont is popular with homebuyers who appreciate the diversity of the area as well as the convenience of living near shopping and restaurants, and the sense of community that characterizes this unique part of town.
The Belmont Real Estate Market Charlie Armstrong, Vice President of Land Development at Southern Development Homes, described the Belmont real estate market as “steady and reliable.” “We did see increased demand for smaller homes during the recession,” he said, but, he explained that due to its proximity to downtown the Belmont area didn’t suffer the severe ups and downs as did the rest of the market during the last seven years. Rob Alley, with RE/MAX Realty Specialists, described the Belmont market

as “rebounding nicely.” He referenced lots of renovation activity by people moving into their new homes and by those fixing up properties for rental or to put back on the market for resale. Bob Hughes, with Nest Realty, agrees stating that renovation projects are very popular in Belmont. His overall description of the market is of one that is “moving and shaking.” Part of the interest in Belmont comes from attention it receives from outside of Charlottesville, Alley explained. For example, Dave Matthews often talks about Belmont and the downtown mall during interviews. Buyers moving to Charlottesville who have heard him speak often won’t consider living anywhere else. “Belmont is very desirable and the market is strong,” said Inessa Telefus, with Loring Woodriff Real Estate Associates. “Prices range from $170,000 to $500,000 and well-priced homes go under contract as quickly as they come on the market,” she continued. “The market is good this year overall,” said Grier Murphy, with Nest Realty. She added that there were 26 sales in Belmont in the first half of this year, up from 21 in 2013. Another measure of market strength is the number of days homes stay on the market before going under contract. In the first half of this year, at least fifty percent of listings were under contract in less than 30 days, Murphy reported. The median price and price per square foot are the same as last year, she continued, but last year was a very hot market, so maintaining that pace is good news, she said.

Walkability Is a Huge Plus The demand for walkable neighborhoods is a national trend as more and more people appreciate the benefits of living near their work and essential goods and services. Another benefit of walkable neighborhoods is that they lend themselves to stronger ties within the community, since people are more likely to be out on foot rather than in their cars. “The Belmont area is just seven minutes from downtown,” said Armstrong. “It’s a perfect stroll for ice cream, dinner or cocktails.” He described Belmont as offering “a great lifestyle.” Grier Murphy has lived in Belmont for 15 years. When she and her husband were looking for a place to live “we looked everywhere but Belmont,” she said. Eventually they saw the potential in this neighborhood and ended up buying and totally renovating the home where they still live. Today she says, “I can’t imagine not living here.”
“Belmont is very desirable
and the market is strong...well-priced homes go under contract as quickly as they come on the market.”
It has been exciting to witness the growth and revitalization in Belmont, one of the city’s more popular neighborhoods.

Proximity to resources is a big plus for Murphy and her family as they enjoy walking together to different activities. “We walk to the local grocery store, to listen to music at the Pavilion and to Belmont Park,” she said. All of this is “super convenient.” Downtown is not the only popular destination for walkers. Cynthia Viejo, of Nest Realty Group, explained that Belmont has a number of trendy spots in its own downtown. “People like that they can walk out their front door and enjoy brunch right in the neighborhood,” Viejo said adding that more and more people love being able to leave their cars behind.
Who is moving to Belmont?
made it a rental property. Rents are high in this area and these properties have good long term potential, he added. Buyers who like the idea of Belmont but want a new home also have options. Southern Development Homes has a new community called The Woods at Burnet Commons, which is not technically Belmont but is near by and shares many of its advantages. “We see a wide mix of people from young professionals to downsizers who don’t want to drive so much,” Armstrong said. “They want a city lifestyle near parks and social centers,” he continued. “This is a great mix of folks, very diverse in every way.” There are also scattered lots available that occasionally go on the market. If you find one you like, don’t hesitate to make an offer. “Once they come on the market they are scooped up quickly if they are buildable,” Murphy said.
First Time Buyers First time buyers can find a home and enjoy the many benefits of Belmont, Hughes said. However expect a smaller home that is further from downtown if you are in this price range. There are several on the market now in the $175,000 to $215,000 range, Murphy explained. These will be homes, in the 900 to 1000 square foot range, or larger homes that need extensive renovation. It is not uncommon for young buyers to rent in Belmont first, fall in love with the area, and then buy a home there when they are ready, Telefus said.
Belmont is a Community For many residents, much of Belmont’s appeal is the sense of community there or as Hughes expressed it, a feeling of “camaraderie.” He described Belmont as a fun place to live where in some areas it is not uncommon for residents to close off the street and gather for block parties. For families with young children, another avenue of community involvement is the PTO at the elementary school that Hughes described as “strong,” and active in fundraising.

“Lots of young folks are moving to Belmont,” Murphy said. “Many are not first time buyers, and we are seeing more high end sales,” she added. She
should they need more space later. Active, mature adults also like Belmont for its energy and its location.” Many young professionals like Belmont because “they can bike to the hospital,” Alley said, or take advantage of being right on a bus line, or near the interstate. He is working with a buyer from DC who found a job at the University and only wants Belmont. Her father also worked at the University and she grew up in this area. The walkability is a big plus for her. Often Belmont buyers hear about the area from friends and decide it is exactly what they want, Murphy said. One feature they like is the diversity, she said, explaining that you could have a $425,000 home next to a rental property or a small starter home. This means diversity not only in home styles but in socio-economic status on the same block. Not everyone appreciates
has had three recent sales (all in the low $400,000 price range) to buyers in their early forties or younger with at least two kids. Even at these price points, the buyers are investing in renovations, Murphy said, explaining that these are people who see the value in this community and are willing to make a long term investment in the lifestyle they want to continue to enjoy here. Many Belmont buyers choose to stay as their family grows, adding to and renovating their home. “I think younger families especially like Belmont,” Telefus said. “They don’t mind a smaller house and can do an addition,
the value of this kind of neighborhood, but to those who do, there’s nothing like Belmont. Robert Ramsey, with Roy Wheeler Realty Co., described Belmont as an “historic gem.” Many Belmont buyers are people who appreciate older homes and a neighborhood laid out in a traditional grid pattern without cul de sacs or curve. He added that “Belmont attracts Bohemian types” like musicians, writers and artists, even if they can afford to live elsewhere. Belmont also appeals to investors. Alley described a family who moved next door, renovated their old house and
Another option is a new home community called Belmont Steps. Described as a pocket community by the developer, it has just eight lots and features two prominent Charlottesville builders, Evergreen Construction and Dickerson Homes and Development. Homes are designed to blend into the neighborhood with a traditional exterior, but very up to date interiors. While many of the home choices in Belmont are single family, for those individuals who don’t want the maintenance associated with home ownership, there are some townhomes and condos available. Belmont “has it all,” Viejo said.
The sense of community in Belmont is also apparent in the local neighborhood association, which is more about creating social ties since it doesn’t have to be concerned with maintenance obligations such as those in newer subdivisions. The organization promotes social activities like the Belmont Bash, a day long festival featuring vendors, music and other fun activities. It also advocates for neighborhood improvements such as better sidewalks, parks and drainage and helps maintain a Neighborhood Watch Program. If you like the idea of living in an older neighborhood with lots of charm, and if you enjoy walking to meet your friends for lunch or for a concert at the downtown mall, then ask your agent about Belmont. Chances are you’ll find just what you are looking for there even if you want a brand new home. n Celeste Smucker is a writer, blogger and author who lives near Charlottesville.

Taste of the Mountains:
Celebrating the Good Life BY KEN WILSON | PHOTOGRAPHS BY TRACY FEDERICO
CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM
M
adison calls it Taste of the Mountains, but it’s really a taste of small town living, albeit on the busiest day of the year. The 310-resident seat of Madison County invites city folk and suburbanites and anyone else eager for a taste of the good life to come on down to Main Street, Saturday, August 30, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., for their 22nd annual celebration of history and heritage. Named one of the top 20 festivals in the southeast, Taste was established in 1992 to celebrate 18th & 19th century Central Virginia culture. Folks come every year to peruse the 170 booths stocked by local and out of state crafters, fill up on barbeque, country-cured ham, and the fire department’s famous steak sandwiches, and watch re-enactors depict Civil War camp life. They hear bluegrass, Southern rock, and show tunes, and their kids enjoy games, magic shows, and pony rides. Taste is a small town party – for 10,000 people.
Located 27 miles north of Charlottesville and 17 miles south of Culpeper on Route 29, Madison is “a lovely spot,” says REALTOR® Christiane Lindsay of Montague Miller & Co., a county resident for over 35 years. “There is no stoplight in town, so it’s like a little whistle-stop. The big at-
traction for people when they come into Madison is looking to the west. That’s where the festival is. You bump into what you see from the highway – a beautiful, beautiful mountain valley. The courthouse has just been renovated, and you have architecture that goes back to the 1800s and previous.”
Chartered in 1792, and named for the family that would give the country its fourth president, Madison County was largely settled by families of German, English and Scots-Irish descent. Many of their descendants remain in the area today. President Herbert Hoover bought county land along the upper Rapidan in 1929, in what is now Shenandoah National Park, and established Camp Hoover, his country retreat throughout his presidency. Today, Lindsay says, the area still affords “the most unbelievable, unspoiled view you can imagine.” Although Madison is an easy drive to city amenities, “the insulation factor from the big city” is a big draw. “Folks move to Madison looking to get away from the high traffic, high activity area. It’s very, very quiet, and fairly unchanged. There is not a lot going on as far as people worrying if a big housing development’s going to pop up. The zoning philosophy here is for it to remain rural. You can pretty much do what you want here agriculturally. The ground here is good; it’s great grazing ground for cattle and horses, and it raises great corn and great hay.” Angela Berry’s family moved to Madison 13 years ago. “My family bought a house out here, and we like it,” Berry says. “You know everybody.” Today, Berry has two children in Madison High School’s Marching Mountaineers, daughter Jennifer, 17, on flugelhorn, and son Tristan, 14, on marching drum. Berry herself is Band Boosters President. “Just come by and see us,” Berry says. “We’re raising money for our next trip.” The Mountaineers should be easy to find because, for once, they won’t be marching. Instead the 59 kids in the band will set up outside the Pie in the Sky pizzeria, where they’ll play pep tunes and movie and musical favorites from “Wicked Cool,” their current marching show.
