Flower Valley
Flower Valley Neighborhood Park leads to Rock Creek Park trails
For people who live in Flower Valley, there's more than one private club to choose from. Bearing the neighborhood's name, the Flower Valley Bath and Racquet Club is the closest option and many residents are members. It has a pool, basketball and tennis courts, a shaded pavilion, a snack bar and several grills for a summer cookout. But though there's no golf course, nearby Manor Country Club satisfies that itch. "A lot of folks live in Flower Valley and are part of Manor [Country Club]," says Lisa Johnson, a longtime Aspen Hill local and Realtor with Weichert. Members of the club, located in Manor Park across Norbeck Road, can access an 18-hole golf course as well as a pool, and several themed dining areas, including a pub, a tiki bar, and a patio with views of the fairways. Back at home, Flower Valley Neighborhood Park backs up to many backyards and features a basketball and tennis court, playground, and nature trails that connect to the much larger Rock Creek Park system. A brief walk through the park's trees leads to Sunfish Pond, a small fishing area. There's also the Lake Frank Trail farther south, which leads to Lake Bernard Frank, a larger reservoir popular for catching panfish and largemouth bass.Flower Valley Bath & Racquet Club hosts annual events
Folks come to the Flower Valley Bath and Racquet Club for annual events, like the Fourth of July Bike Parade, where kids pedal through the streets and end their ride by the pool. The club also hosts the Annual Crab Feast in July, a Maryland tradition, where neighbors come together to eat seafood in the evening and socialize. The Crab Feast is sponsored by several local businesses.Local diners and supermarket at Rock Creek Village Center
Rock Creek Village Center is a small retail plaza across Norbeck Road to the south. Rock Creek features neighborhood staple spots like Villa Maya, serving a Tex-Mex menu. "They have outdoor seating and great guacamole and margaritas; people love it," says Ashley Veith, a Realtor on the Tamara Kucik Team at RLAH. Rock Creek Village Center also features a Safeway for groceries and a CVS for pharmacy needs. The center also features the newer Italian restaurant Ema Rossi, and Veith recommends its wood-fired pizza. One of Ema Rossi's specialties is the Margherita Piu, a pepperoni pizza drizzled with chili-infused honey. Folks can head north to Georgia Avenue to enjoy dinner and drinks at the rustic Full On Craft Eats & Drinks diner, a made-from-scratch restaurant with various salads, sandwiches, beer and wine. Locals can also take Norbeck Road a mile west to explore the dining and shopping variety along the bustling Rockville Pike.Craftsman and Colonial homes from the 1960s
Home values in Flower Valley range from $500,000 to $1 million, varying by square footage and lot size. The neighborhood comprises single-family homes in brick Craftsman and colonial styles, usually costing $700,000 to $1 million. Some townhouse options are available for around $500,000. Johnson explains that the neighborhood was mainly developed "in the 1960s, [made up of] different models, but mostly [from] the same builder; the homes here have the benefit of mature landscaping and large bedrooms." Most homes have half-acre lots, and Johnson adds that homes in Flower Valley are slightly more affordable than in other Aspen Hill communities like Manor Park, where it's harder to find homes under $1 million.Montgomery County Public Schools get all A's
