What should you know before buying in Western Ridge?

Family-scale lots with a pool and clubhouse community

What you get

  • The established-family packagepool, clubhouse, real yards, and a school nearby — without new-construction noise.
  • A 7-day median on market and a 100% median sale-to-list ratio across the last 20 closings — homes here go at asking.
  • 20 sales spanning $485K–$885K — an honest ladder from the smallest Stonegate Lane homes to large family houses.

What to weigh

  • 9 sales in the last 12 months — steadier than most Crozet neighborhoods its size, but still not constant choice.
  • HOA dues cover the pool and clubhouse — get the current fee and any assessment history in writing.
  • A $485K–$885K spread is wide for one subdivision. Stonegate Lane sits at the bottom of it, so the median tells you less here than the tier you are actually shopping.

Is Stonegate a separate neighborhood from Western Ridge?

No. Stonegate Lane is a street inside Western Ridge, not a separate subdivision. Albemarle County records those lots under the Western Ridge legal description — 5521 Stonegate Lane (PIN 056E0030005700) reads “WESTERN RIDGE B 57” — and they carry the same HOA amenities and the same school zoning. Some listings and search sites still file them under “Stonegate,” which is why the two names turn up separately.

What schools serve Western Ridge?

All 267 parcels in Western Ridge are zoned Crozet Elementary, then Henley Middle, then Western Albemarle High — checked against the county parcel file in September 2026, and that includes the lots recorded under the Stonegate name. Zoning is still assigned by address, so confirm the specific home before you write an offer.
