An Upper Marlboro community near the Capital Beltway
About 8 miles south of Interstate 495, Marlboro Village offers quiet suburbia with commuter access to the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area’s most integral highway. “We call I-495 the Capital Beltway because it loops around the entirety of D.C.,” says Tina Marie Marshall, the broker-owner of MD Prime Realty Co. and an Upper Marlboro resident. “People want to live near that highway because it’s so convenient, but Marlboro Village is far enough that there isn’t any noise or an excessive amount of traffic.” Aside from commuter convenience, locals can also easily access lively green spaces, like Watkins Regional Park, and downtown Upper Marlboro, home to several longstanding eateries and Prince George’s County government buildings.
Colonial revivals, ranch styles and new traditional houses are a plenty in Marlboro Village.

New builds in Marlboro Village
Homes built between the 1990s and 2020s dot Marlboro Village’s sidewalk-lined roads.

Prices tend to be higher than Upper Marlboro’s average $450,000 selling price. Older homes can cost between $400,000 and $500,000, while newer houses can cost between $600,000 and $800,000.

The Capital Beltway leads to D.C., Route 301 reaches Baltimore
Though Marlboro Village has sidewalks, it’s a car-dependent community. Brown Station Road links with the Capital Beltway, making downtown D.C. a 21-mile drive northwest. A 37-mile drive north on U.S. Route 301 leads to Baltimore. Depending on traffic, the drive to either city can take 30 minutes to an hour. The neighborhood has several Prince George’s County bus stops, and the Downtown Largo Metro station is less than 8 miles north. It follows the Blue Line, reaching downtown D.C. in less than an hour.
Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is 21 miles west, while Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport is 33 miles north. MedStar Southern Maryland Hospital Center is 10 miles southwest. Residents sometimes hear noise from the occasional low-flying plane leaving Joint Base Andrews, an Air Force facility 10 miles west.
Upper Marlboro route 301 can connect you to several transit hubs in the area.
Route 4 runs from Washington DC to Upper Marlboro, and also to Leonardtown.

Specialty programs at Dr. Henry A. Wise Jr. High School
Children can attend Barack Obama Elementary, James Madison Middle and Dr. Henry A. Wise Jr. High School, all graded a C by Niche. The high school offers special programs like business management and finances, information technology and health and biosciences. The elementary and high school are both in Marlboro Village, but Marshall says students don’t typically walk to school. “In general, kids in the Upper Marlboro area take the bus to school. Some of them will walk if it takes less than 10 minutes.”
Dr. Henry Wise Jr. High School in Upper Marlboro has a beautiful, updated campus.

A neighborhood hiking trail, and a century-old carousel at Watkins Regional Park
Starting on Brook Lane, locals can hop on a forested asphalt trail. A less than mile-long hike leads to Kings Grant Park, a 38-acre green space with tennis courts, soccer fields and a baseball diamond. The trail continues through the park, passing a pond with a fishing dock. Marshall says locals also drive to other recreational spaces. “There are a few state and regional parks in the area and those are really popular. Technically, Rosaryville State Park is closer, but Watkins Regional Park has a lot more to do, especially for kids.” Campgrounds and 16 miles of horseback riding, hiking and biking trails cover Rosaryville State Park, 5 miles south. At Watkins Regional Park, about 7 miles north, a yellow brick road leads to the Wizard of Oz-themed playground. Kids ride the miniature train or a hand-carved, wooden horse on the Dentzel Carousel, built in 1905. The 839-acre green space also has tennis courts, baseball diamonds and basketball courts.
Stay on the yellow brick road to the Wizard of Oz playground, Watkins Regional Park, Kettering.

County buildings and longstanding restaurants in downtown Upper Marlboro
Located in the seat of Prince George’s County, Marlboro Village is home to the Prince George’s County Department of Corrections. The county Animal Services Facility & Adoption Center is on Brown Station Road, and other government buildings, like the county courthouse, are about 2 miles southeast in downtown Upper Marlboro.
Downtown Marlboro’s red-brick buildings are also home to a few locally owned restaurants. Old Towne Inn, established in 2006, is a go-to for live jazz music, Washington Commander watch parties and Sunday brunch. A neon sign flickers outside Ledo Pizza, which has been serving rectangular-shaped pizza since 1955. Furniture crafted by the Amish and groceries are available at Dutch Village Farmers Market, a brick-and-mortar store in the Marlboro Village Shopping Center. Marshall says locals also shop at Bowie Town Center, 12 miles north. “There’s not a huge shopping center or mall in the Upper Marlboro area. Bowie is where most people go for bigger shopping trips.” The open-air shopping center has over 70 stores, including Macy’s, Barnes and Noble and a Safeway grocery store.
Upper Marlboro was originally a port town on the Patuxent River.
Beautiful classic county buildings are spread all throughout downtown Marlboro Village.
