Leesburg, Virginia located 31 miles northwest of Washington
D.C. in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains is a quaint
colonial town reminiscent
of the Revolutionary War era. Named after the influential Lee
family in 1758 and incorporated in 1813, Leesburg has special
historical significance in our
country's political history. During the war of 1812, the town was chosen
as the secret hiding place for the US constitution, The Declaration
of Independence
and other vital documents. In 1823, President James Monroe with
the assistance of John Quincy Adams wrote the famed Monroe Doctrine
in nearby Oak Hill
stipulating American imperialistic foreign policy.
Today, Leesburg is the seat
of government for America's second fastest growing county. Despite the town's
population explosion to an estimated 33,000 residents over the
past decade,
Leesburg's old world charm and historical significance has not been
compromised. It is home to several large
internet, telecommunications and
technology firms which fuel one of the greatest real estate
booms in U.S. history. Like Ashburn, the Leesburg area is conveniently
located near one of our nation's
most vibrant shopping centers. Nordstrom's, Home Depot and Costco are just
moments away off Route 7, Leesburg's direct artery to Tyson's Corner and
Washington. Commuters who need quick access to Reston, Fairfax,
the District and Dulles International Airport
will find the Greenway a smooth, high speed scenic delight.
The new home market in the Leesburg area is very similar in price,
product and demographic profile to that of Ashburn, Sterling
and Potomac Falls. Many of the
national and local homebuilders duplicate their offerings in
the varying locations. The most striking new community with
a Leesburg mailing address is
Landsdowne Resort on The Potomac with its world class Robert
Trent Jones championship golf course. The mountainous views,
rolling manicured greens and
riverfront topography are breathtaking. Landsdowne Resort, once
owned by the Xerox Corporation, recently sold
off much of the land to
home builders, including: Van Metre, Beazer, Centex, Laing, Ryan,
NV, Equity, Basheer Edgemoore and IDI. Sales are brisk, with
"Active Adult" condominiums from the
$200's, town houses from the mid $300's and single family homes on premium
homesites ranging from the low 400's to over one million. Large 1/2 acre homesites
are also available. Golf course lots are subject to premiums,
however for those with
a discretionary budget, it may be worth the investment.
