Village designed with convenience in mind
Part of Maryland’s first planned community of Columbia, the village of Long Reach is a true blend of atmospheres, with shopping hubs, residential pockets and parks within walking distance. “The area was designed so that you could be part of this larger 100,000-person community, but you still have the small town feel of the village itself,” says Craig Barton, who manages the community association for the neighboring village of Owen Brown. Communal amenities like tot lots, trails and free little libraries are abundant, and the Long Reach Village Town Center is home to retail and casual eateries.
Long Reach is located in Columbia, MD.
Long Reach Village Center has a convenience mart for daily essentials.

Late 20th century homes and townhouses
With most homes here developed in the 1970s, styles range from colonials to ranch and split levels. As the neighborhood grew in the late 1990s, new traditional homes developed. Decorated front porches, painted shutters and small gardens add a personal touch. Price points fall between $450,000 and $775,000, depending on the number of bedrooms, typically ranging from three to five. The neatly patterned neighborhood means nearly every property has an equally sized lot of land, usually around a quarter acre. Lush greenery and trees tower over the manicured front lawns and provide a canopy for neighbors walking on the sidewalks below. Long Reach also has an extensive number of townhouse and condo communities, a convenient option with minimal upkeep and monthly homeowners association fees hovering in the mid $100s. Prices for these homes start around $200,000 and climb up to $450,000.

Trails connect Long Reach to neighboring villages
The village's titular park is situated behind Long Reach Hill School, with ball fields and tennis courts primarily used by the high school. There are walking trails open to the public around a large grassy field. Locals also stretch their legs along the Elkhorn Branch Trail, which connects them to neighboring communities. The path winds through wooded areas and wetlands, providing a peaceful setting for a walk or bike ride. Head to Jackson Pond, tucked within one of Long Reach’s subsections, to cast a line from the fishing pier. Kids can burn off some energy at one of the many tot lots peppered throughout the neighborhood, including those off Stonecutter Road or Hayshed Lane. Community centers, including Stonehouse and the Locust Park Neighborhood Center, offer spots for people to host celebrations and small events. Stonehouse also features yoga and dance rooms, while Locust Park offers a covered terrace and fenced-in playground. The latter sits next to one outdoor pool that fills up quickly once summer rolls around.

Laid-back restaurants are dotted around the complexes, including The Ale House Columbia, where locals pull up a stool to the bar to sip on craft brews while catching a game on TV. Nearby, THB Bagelry & Deli is the go-to breakfast spot in the village. At the heart of Columbia is its expansive mall, jam-packed with stores like H&M, J.
