Deyerle Apartments for Rent

Deyerle is a neighborhood located southwest of Roanoke, Virginia, next to Salem. Its boundaries are Brandon Avenue, US 419, and Grandin Road. Roanoke is located in Virginia’s Roanoke Valley. The Greater Deyerle neighborhood Association was set up in order to address issues of housing, traffic, and economic development, as well as to conserve the neighborhood and uphold the interests of its residents.

The history of Deyerle dates back to the 1700s, when the first settlements were established. Many historic homes, churches, and pastures have been preserved for posterity. Two such homes are on the National Register of Historic Places: Belle Air, built in 1849, and Lone Oaks, built in 1853. Deyerle covers an area of approximately two and a half square miles that encompasses small lakes, green spaces, streams and pastures – all vestiges of the area’s rural past.

Home ownership rates are quite high here. Deyerle residents are proud of the neighborhood’s history and post-war architecture. Whereas the core of the neighborhood is made up of single-family houses, five apartment complexes and a retirement facility occupy the area as well. All of these buildings were built between 1950 and 2002.

Although Deyerle is primarily residential, it is surrounded by commercial development, with retail shops lying along Brandon Avenue. The Southwest Plaza, Ridgewood Farms, and Oak Grove Plaza shopping areas are located in the adjoining city of Salem.

Principal access to the neighborhood is provided by Brando Avenue, Mus Lick road, Deyerle Road, and Grandin Road. With regards to public transportation, only one Valley Metro bus route runs along Brandon Avenue. RADAR provides on-demand, curb-to-curb transit service for disabled or transportationally disadvantage residents.

Local students attend Woodrow Wilson Middle School, Patrick Henry High School, and Hidden Valley Middle School, part of the Roanoke County School System. Bus service is provided for county students.
