Sugarloaf Mountain and I-270 shape Urbana’s scenic location
Urbana offers a mix of suburban and rural living in southeastern Frederick County, Maryland. The relatively small town is about an hour’s drive north of Washington D.C., 35 miles south of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and 7 miles south of historic Frederick, Maryland. The southern half of the 7-square-mile community is made up of Sugarloaf Mountain, which is a scenic park and a notable Civil War site. The rest of Urbana was mostly rural farmland from the mid-1700s until 1999 when The Villages of Urbana, a mixed-use community, began development. Today, The Villages has more than 4,000 homes and abundant retail, dining, and commercial properties. Its popularity brings homebuyers from the Washington D.C. metro area. According to Michelle Graziani, Realtor with Century 21 Redwood Realty, and a real estate agent for more than 20 years, “Urbana offers plenty of attractions, but the two most notable benefits for folks moving north from Montgomery County are the more affordable home prices and being close to rural surroundings.” Residents can have a reasonable commute to DC, or they can drive to the Shady Grove Metro in Gaithersburg, and take the Metrorail into D.C.
Urbana offers the endless amenities of a modern master-planned community, a quiet mountain view location and an address that puts commuters within reach of Washington DC and the I-270 Technology Corridor.
