In the D.C. suburbs, Glenmont offers perfectly manicured green lawns, homes built after World War II and active communities. This residential area, located about 10 miles north of Washington, D.C., sits next to peaceful parks and a public garden, and locals can hop on the Metro and reach downtown in 20 minutes. “Homebuyers love that Glenmont is close to the Metro station, close to parks and Brookside Gardens,” Paulette Ladas, Realtor with Re/Max Realty Group, says.

Postcard of suburbia
Glenmont is the epitome of suburbia. Kids ride their bikes down the streets, playgrounds cater to small children and neighbors get together for events ranging from yard sales to seasonal festivals. Development in the community ramped up in the mid-20th century, turning the rolling green hills with farms and family homesteads into baby-boomer subdivisions. Communities like Greenwood Knolls feature $500,000 midcentury split-level homes, whereas Georgian Forest is home to ramblers from the 1950s and 1960s for around $600,000. Townhouses from the 1980s sit within the Tivoli Community, and Wheaton Out features brand-new homes, like contemporary builds with a barn texture for $1.5 million. Multifamily apartment buildings and condos, designed in the midcentury modern style, can still be found in Glenmont. A 1970s condo with three bedrooms costs between $250,000 and $300,000. Older cottages, bungalows and ranch-style houses are ripe for renovations and additions. Sidewalks separate front yards from the street, with shady trees lining the roadway. Short driveways lead right to houses, sometimes with parking spaces in front. Demand is high, especially for custom-built homes. Each community has its own perks and drawbacks. Tivoli, for example, has a community center, a fitness center and a playground for children. The Strathmore at Bel Pre community has a pool, an annual yard sale and an active civic association with a newsletter.

Roses and azaleas
Glenmont sits near Brookside Gardens, one of the first public gardens in Maryland. Brookside has gardens for butterflies, azaleas and roses, plus aquatic and Japanese-style gardens. Outside of Brookside, walkers and bikers use the 5-mile paved trail at the Glenmont Greenway Urban Park, and equestrians can use the forested Matthew Henson Trail, which runs through the tip of the community.

Stained glass bar
Locals can get essentials at the Glenmont Shopping Center, which has a CVS pharmacy, a Lidl grocery store and a Planet Fitness gym. The circa 1950s mall is also known for being the site of the Arcade, where a retro Arcade sign remains at the site of a former bowling alley. People get their bubble tea and Korean-style corndogs at Kong Dog and eat plantains and Peruvian charbroiled chicken at Don Pollo of Glenmont. The nearby Stained Glass Pub serves traditional bar and grill fare inside a brick building with stained-glass windows.
Commuting to D.C.
Maryland Route 97 runs on the west side of Glenmont, connecting the area with U.S. Route 29 into Washington, D.C. The Glenmont Metro station sits within the community, providing a direct route to the city. Commuters can catch the Metro and arrive at Union Station in D.C. in 20 minutes. Driving to Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport takes about 30 minutes, depending on traffic.
From Silver Spring, through DC, to Rockville, the Glenmont Metro is the start of the red line.
Whether its for work or play, the Glenmont Metro Station is always there when you need it.
