Marlton sits between county development and rural outskirts
Marlton is a wooded suburb in south Prince George's County, branching off Crain Highway. Though the community's original homes were built during the greater Washington D.C. region's suburban housing boom in the 1960s and ‘70s, several new townhouse subdivisions are also available. "It used to be rural, but the area has been developed over time," says Rannard Edwards, a 10-year Realtor with Own Real Estate. "In fact, beyond Marlton is still farmland." Residents can live on the southern edge of the county's suburban development, where a few miles south is the expansive Cedarville State Forest, and less than 20 miles west, the bustling National Harbor area offers nightlife, dining and retail.
Marlton's Primary Entrance is on the Blue Star Memorial Highway.
Homebuyers looking in Marlton can expect to spend around $197 per square foot.

Postwar homes, modern townhomes and USDA loan opportunities
Prices in Marlton generally range from $300,000 to $850,000, varying by lot size, age and square footage. Buyers can find ramblers, bi-levels, and brick Colonial Revival homes built between the '70s and the early 2000s. Modern townhouses concentrated in the Marlton Town Center development were built from 2000 onwards. There are also unique opportunities for some buyers searching in the area. "Marlton qualifies for U.S. Department of Agriculture loans," Edwards says. "It's very helpful for first-time buyers to get these loans because they usually don't require a down payment." Buyers seeking to build or buy a single-family home in the neighborhood within a specific income bracket are eligible for the USDA's Rural Development loans, with no down payment and low interest rates, to encourage the growth of safe, sanitary housing for people in rural communities. Winding roads, consistent sidewalks and a shady tree canopy define the neighborhood's curb appeal. Finding on-street parking typically isn’t an issue, as many homes feature driveways or garages.
The average home in Marlton is roughly 3,739 square feet.
Colonial Revival is a popular architectural style for homes in Marlton.

A few doors down is Sharks Fish & Chicken, with chicken wings and Louisiana-style po'boys. Marlton Plaza also hosts a Food Lion for groceries. Locals can venture west and reach National Harbor after a half-hour drive. This thriving waterfront district hosts a variety of restaurants, from fast-casual spots to taverns and upscale white-tablecloth establishments. There's also the Tanger National Harbor, a mall with 85 outlet stores to browse.

Locals commute to D.C. or Joint Base Andrews in less than an hour
Commuters can reach Washington, D.C., after a roughly 20-mile drive west. Joint Base Andrews is a 10-mile drive away and employs more than 14,000 civilian and military personnel. Residents of Marlton are car-dependent due to the lack of public transit options nearby. Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is 21 miles northwest and offers domestic and international flights.
