Located in the southwestern part of Roanoke County and often called “Southwest County,” Cave Spring blends the convenience of shopping, dining, and healthcare options with the feel of mature, residential neighborhoods.
Large lots, winding roads, and views of the Blue Ridge Mountains shape how homes are built here — expect garages built into slopes, outdoor living spaces that take advantage of views, and flexible interiors for young family life.
The area is known for its high-rated schools, safe neighborhoods, and mix of older established homes plus new construction. Major roads like Electric Road (VA‐419) and Brambleton Avenue tie the community to the broader Roanoke‐Salem area, making travel and access to amenities easy. From the mature subdivisions in Hunting Hills and Fairway Forest to newer traditional homes along the southern slopes of the county, Cave Spring offers a range of lots and home styles.

Building in Cave Spring means working with the land, not against it. The terrain shifts from level valleys near Electric Road to elevated ridgelines toward Buck Mountain, offering beautiful views but requiring strategic site planning. Southern Trace understands how to position homes for natural light, handle water flow on sloped lots, and design foundations that stand up to local soil conditions. By using local materials and careful grading, we create homes that fit naturally into their surroundings and stand strong for decades to come. This level of planning is essential for successful custom home construction in Cave Spring, where lot conditions often shape the final design.

Cave Spring offers a quiet, community-centered lifestyle that feels miles away from city noise while still being minutes from Roanoke’s core. Its neighborhoods were mostly developed between the 1960s and 1990s, meaning many homes now benefit from thoughtful updates—expanded kitchens, open floor plans, and modern outdoor spaces. The area’s mature trees, rolling yards, and proximity to schools and shopping make it an ideal setting for long-term homeowners looking to improve or expand their space rather than move away. For many residents, strategic home remodeling in Cave Spring allows them to modernize interiors while keeping the character and location they already love.
Whether you’re planning a new custom home, a bedroom addition, a detached garage or shop, or a full interior remodel, our team brings experience in this region’s specific conditions — from hillside lots to mature tree canopy, from family-friendly interiors to outdoor living spaces. Many Cave Spring properties also benefit from thoughtfully designed accessory structures, such as detached garages, workshops, or pool houses that match the main home.
We handle permitting with Roanoke County, collaborate closely with local inspectors, and ensure the home we build or remodel fits into the neighborhood — whether you’re on Canterbury Park Drive, along Woodbourne Road, or near Tanglewood Mall.

We build custom homes from the ground up, do home additions (kitchens, family rooms, second stories), accessory buildings (garages, shops, pool houses, etc.), and full remodeling of interiors and exteriors. Because of the area’s views and rolling lots, homeowners frequently invest in outdoor living spaces that extend usable space into the backyard
Cost of course depends on lot size, slope condition, home size, and materials. Because many lots slope and require special site prep, we walk the site, review any extra grading or retaining wall needs, then provide a clear project plan and budget.
We serve all across the Cave Spring community—Hunting Hills, Fairway Forest, Canterbury Park, Steeplecase, Sorrell Lane, Woodbourne Road corridor, and along Electric Road/VA-419 and Brambleton Avenue.
Yes. We coordinate with Roanoke County on permits, inspections, and site approvals, and we keep your project on schedule and in compliance.
