Rural character and commuter convenience coexist in Queensland
Wedged between Maryland state Route 4 and U.S. Route 301, Queensland offers access to Washington, D.C., and Baltimore. But the Upper Marlboro commuter community also has a slight rural edge. “The acreage in this area is uncommon for Upper Marlboro and the D.C. metro area,” says Lisa White, a Realtor with Re/Max Allegiance, who has sold several homes in the area. “Most houses are pretty spread out, so it feels very quiet and private.” Locals will find hunting grounds, campsites and horseback riding trails at nearby green spaces, like Rosaryville State Park, and the Prince George’s County Fair is held a few miles away. Joint Base Andrews and shopping centers in Forestville and Bowie are also just a quick drive away.
Route 301 runs through all of Queensland.
Queensland is a dream for those working in the city.

Large lots in Queensland
Houses built between the 1980s and early 2000s dot Queensland’s wide, asphalt roads. Ranch styles, Colonial Revivals and New Traditional houses often sit on 2-acre lots backing up to hardwood forests. Houses typically have three to five bedrooms and attached garages. Prices tend to be similar to Prince George’s County’s average $400,000 selling price. Older homes go for around $400,000, while newer homes typically cost between $600,000 and $725,000.
Big lots are no stranger to the Queensland neighborhood.

Language immersion programs at Dr. Henry A. Wise Jr. High School
Children here can attend Marlton Elementary School, graded a C by Niche, and Gwynn Park Middle School, earning a C-minus. They may continue to C-rated Dr. Henry A. Wise Jr. High School, which offers French, Spanish and Chinese immersion programs. There are several Prince George’s County Public School bus stops in the area, as all these schools are out of the district’s walking zones.
Dr. Henry Wise Jr, High School has a big beautiful campus.

Archery at Rosaryville State Park, county fair at Show Place Arena
Less than a mile south of the neighborhood, the 1,227-acre Rosaryville State Park was once known as Mount Airy, the hunting grounds of a 17th-century baron from Baltimore. The 18th-century Greek Revival mansion on the property is open for guided tours today, and archery-only hunting is still popular in designated areas. Hikers and bike riders can also traverse the 27 miles of densely forested trails. The Rosaryville Stables provides horse boarding and hosts dressage competitions, like the Marlborough Horse Trials in September. Less than 3 miles east, the 5,800-seat Show Place Arena is also used for rodeos, horse shows and other sporting events. Though it was canceled in 2024 for a lack of volunteers, the Prince George’s County Fair is held at the arena and its surrounding property in September. The event is scheduled to resume in 2025, with cattle competitions, a Ferris wheel and live music. Waterfront hiking trails, campgrounds and paddleboat launches are available at Patuxent River Park’s Jug Bay Natural Area, less than 10 miles east.
Several houses of worship sit along U.S. Route 301, including the First Baptist Church of Upper Marlboro and the Kettering Baptist Church.
Rosaryville State Park is open from 8am to sunset.
The picnic area at Rosaryville State Park is a nice lunchtime getaway.

Shopping centers in Forestville and Bowie
A Safeway grocery store and a Petco anchor the Osborne Shopping Center on the neighborhood’s southernmost end. There are also fast-food drive-throughs like Taco Bell and Popeye’s. Despite this nearby shopping center, White says locals typically drive for other errands. “There’s actually great shopping in the area, but you have to drive to Forestville or Bowie for it.” The Centre at Forestville, less than 9 miles west, is a mall with stores such as Target, Bath & Body Works and Foot Locker, while Bowie Town Center, 14 miles northwest, is an outdoor shopping corridor home to Macy’s, Barnes & Noble and many other retailers.
Osborne Shopping Center has tons of retail options.

D.C., Baltimore and Joint Base Andrews are all nearby
There are no sidewalks in Queensland, making it a car-dependent community. Maryland state Route 4 spans the neighborhood’s northern edge, taking locals to downtown D.C. with an 18-mile drive west. White says that the drive can take a while, depending on traffic. “It can take about an hour to get to the city during rush hour, but that’s why people look for houses here. There aren’t any metro stations or bus stops. It’s fully removed from the city.” The highway also connects with Interstate 495, locally known as the Capital Beltway, less than 6 miles west. The closest Prince George’s County bus stops are less than a mile north on Old Marlboro Pike, and the Largo Town Center Metro Station is 11 miles in the same direction. Baltimore is a 40-mile drive north on U.S. Route 40.
MedStar Southern Maryland Hospital Center is 8 miles southwest. Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is 19 miles west, and Dulles International Airport is 47 miles in the same direction. Residents may hear noise from the occasional low-flying plane leaving Joint Base Andrews, an Air Force facility 8 miles west.
Douglas Patterson Park has a football field.
Route 4 funs from Washington DC through Upper Marlboro, to Leonardtown.
