Condos, townhouses and single-family homes between Leesburg and Ashburn
Lansdowne features an array of housing options, from condos with views of golf greens to 55-plus communities and spacious single-family homes on wide, sidewalk-lined streets. The median price for a single family home is around $1.3 million, significantly above the national median; that figure for townhouses is roughly $800,000. A homeowners association governs every neighborhood with monthly fees ranging from about $240 to more than $1,000.
Most single-family homes are Colonial Revival or New Traditional, and were built in the early 2000s. However, a few newly built Modern Transitional homes dot Lansdowne’s southeastern point. FEMA flood maps show properties close to the Potomac River and Goose Creek rest against special flood hazard areas.
