Building in Orange County

Orange County covers more ground than most people realize, and it lives two different lives doing it. In the east, Locust Grove and Lake of the Woods sit off Route 3 — a 500-acre main lake, beaches and marinas, and an easy run to Fredericksburg and I-95. In the west, Gordonsville and Barboursville roll into horse farms and some of Virginia's most established vineyards, with Charlottesville a half hour down the road. In between sits the town of Orange and Montpelier, James Madison's home, on ground that has been farmed continuously since the eighteenth century. That range is the point. Orange is the county where you can still choose your version of the life — water, farmland, or a walkable small town — without leaving one school district. It's also growing faster than any of its rural neighbors, up more than 22% since 2010, which means the good parcels move. Trigon Homes has built across this region for 25+ years and covers the whole job under a single all-inclusive price: site prep, foundation, permits, well and septic, driveway, landscaping. Build on acreage you already own or on one of our homesites.
