Neighborhood

The neighborhood of Roundhill sits five miles north of downtown Roanoke, Virginia, and around three hours west of Richmond. Rental apartments and homes in the area enjoy easy access to main roads and local shopping strips and malls.

The stores in and around Valley View Mall in the southwest section of the neighborhood include popular grocery stores, clothing boutiques, fast-food chains, and a multi-screen theater complex.

After a shopping trip, go to Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen for home-cooked comfort food prepared from scratch.
