Historical grounds meet suburban development
The city of Rockville, Maryland, is a community with hundreds of years of history but the trappings of a postwar suburb, and East Rockville is no different. Most of the neighborhood is covered by the Twinbrook subdivision, which broke ground in 1946. Residents of this primarily residential neighborhood have access to well-rated schools and strip malls full of shops and eateries. At the same time, East Rockville is the site of Glenview Mansion, a century-old neoclassical estate where locals can stroll its gardens and explore its halls. Next door is the 270-year-old Rockville Cemetery, where author F. Scott Fitzgerald was once buried. This is typical of the city 15 miles from Washington, D.C., says Dick Stoner, a Rockville resident who is the broker and owner of Reist Corp. “It’s a town with a rich history, even though there’s been more housing built since the ‘60s than was in Rockville before then.”

150 acres of recreation at Rockville Civic Center
Rockville Civic Center Park is a well-rounded recreation facility in the neighborhood where people can get active at the playground and pickleball courts or hike more than 2 miles of trails. The adjacent Croydon Creek Nature Center has a live owl and reptiles on display while the F. Scott Fitzgerald Theatre hosts more than 100 shows annually. The theater is named for the author of “The Great Gatsby,” who is buried a mile away at St. Mary’s Catholic Church. Residents can also buy memberships to Twinbrook Pool, a neighborhood swimming spot that hosts a kid swim team and a summer camp. Those who join the Twinbrook Community Recreation Center nearby get access to a gym, game room and library. Another five parks around East Rockville put playgrounds, tennis courts and baseball diamonds among houses.
Japanese, Greek dishes in East Rockville food scene
Locals can cruise Rockville Pike and Veirs Mill Road to run errands or shop at the banks, convenience shops and big-box stores along the roadways. Grocery options include Aldi, Asian supermarket Lotte Plaza Market and Adarash Market, an Ethiopian food store. The neighborhood’s 20-plus restaurants span a variety of international cuisines. Maki serves donburi rice bowls and ramen, while Mastiha specializes in baking Greek goodies such as kourabiedes cookies. The ground floors of apartment complexes along Fishers Lane are filled with a walkable strip of restaurants and shops. A handful of Christian churches dot the neighborhood, though practitioners of other faiths will have to head to other parts of Rockville or to Silver Spring to worship.
International Night at F. Scott Fitzgerald Theatre
Glenview Mansion next to Rockville Civic Center was built in 1926 by a well-to-do Rockville family, but today it’s a free museum and art gallery. In January and February, the estate hosts an art show comprised of pieces submitted by local students. Throughout the year, it’s booked for private events, namely weddings. F. Scott Fitzgerald Theatre is the site of International Night, an annual showcase of music and dance from China, El Salvador and other nations. Throughout the week, the Twinbrook Library puts on story readings, craft workshops, yoga classes and more.
Modest post-war homes
Houses began to pop up in this neighborhood after World War II. Modestly sized homes, namely minimal traditional, ranch and Cape Cod designs, are packed together on small, square lawns. Winding streets are lined by sidewalks that residents can stroll through on the way to the pocket parks scattered about. Prices vary from $425,000 for a three-bedroom minimal traditional house to $1.2 million for a six-bedroom home that was recently renovated. The median price is $550,000, less than the city of Rockville’s median price of $610,000.
Local schools get grades of B or higher
Children who attend Montgomery County Public Schools can stay in the neighborhood at Twinbrook Elementary School, which gets a Niche grade of B. Older students can go to A-rated Julius West Middle School and Richard Montgomery High School, graded an A-plus. Ranked the eighth-best public high school in the state, Richard Montgomery High offers more than 25 Advanced Placement courses and three International Baccalaureate programs. Evergreen School provides a private Montessori education option for second and third graders in the neighborhood.
