Tuesdays are all about great communities.

After spending the weekend roaming around Lansdowne during their spring festival I decided to highlight the luster of the well designed community that is showing it's true beauty this Spring. Every time I drive through the community I find myself saying 2 things....

Wow, that is a beautiful home
How the heck did I end up over here?

The community has so many cul-de-sacs and turns around the golf course that it is not a normal grid-like road system that is easy to figure out, at least for me.

Good To Know:

Lansdowne has 2,155 homes. 1,422 Detached... 713 others (I am not sure this number includes the condos currently being built around the town center. It was built by well know local builders; Centex, Beazer, Brookfield, and Van Metre.

Lansdowne On The Potomac is the home of a luxury resort center with rooms, spa, dining, and a golf course that residents can join.

Amenities:

Lansdowne residents enjoy the large 30,000 square foot Potomac Club which is home to a 25 meter indoor pool, outdoor pool, exercise room, business center, game room, along with a ball room with dining. There are also tennis courts, a tot-lot, and an outdoor amphitheatre.

Lansdowne's website states, "Two significant bodies of water (Goose Creek and the Potomac River) are in and around Lansdowne. The community includes businesses and residential areas. Businesses include: INOVA Loudoun Hospital, the Lansdowne Resort, Leisure World, The Prison Ministries headquarters, and The Jack Kent Cooke Foundation. In addition, the area will soon include the Lansdowne Town Center, a mix of residential and retail space. Lansdowne also has a neighborhood elementary school and middle school.

The developer of Lansdowne has dedicated certain areas to Loudoun County, including a natural park on the Potomac, a canoe/kayak launch on Goose Creek, a park integrated with our middle school, and hiking trails and paths."

Location:

Lansdowne On The Potomac is located off of the Potomac River 19 miles west of Tysons Corner. 12 miles to Dulles International Airport, and 2.7 miles to Leesburg Outlets.
