July 2nd, 2008 categories: Brambleton, Broadlands, Market Statistics
Again, Ashburn is selling very well. It is a little easier to see in 20147 where there are few new homes still being built compared to each of these neighborhoods. Most new homes sales are not listed in the MLS.
**Loudoun Valley- includes all of the Loudoun Valley Communities in 20148.

Broadlands Live Concert Series
June 26th, 2008 categories: Broadlands, For Fun
Last Friday night some friends and I took advantage of the free concert series being offered monthly by the Broadlands. I personally wasn’t too impressed by the opening band Road Soda who seemed more like a karaoke band. However, I cannot grant enough accolades to the bank Derek James who had a great sound. I was able to grab a few poor quality photos on my phone camera (captured below). Besides the music, there were kids everywhere of all ages. Broadlands did a fantastic job with all of their sponsors and volunteers setting all of this up.
Broadlands will be holding 3 more outdoor concert events this summer:
July 18 ’80s DRESS UP NIGHT
5:30-6:30 p.m. The Backseat Betties
7-9:30 p.m. Gonzo’s Nose
Aug. 15 CHILDREN’s OPENER
5:30-6:30 p.m. Mr. Chad Band
7-9:30 p.m. Savingnine
Sept. 12 5:30-6:30 p.m. Bad Luck
7-9:30 p.m. Scott’s New Band
Hillside Park (Old Stone House) 42935 Waxpool Road
5:30-9:30 p.m. (weather permitting)

Community Of The Week: Ashburn’s BROADLANDS
June 3rd, 2008 categories: Broadlands, Community Of The Week
If you are a Loudoun local you have heard of the Broadlands. It’s not the fact that the Broadlands has created their own unincorporated name inside of Ashburn. Nope. People in the Broadlands have a major agenda currently. That agenda is getting their own hospital.
I find it humorous when reading the local papers every week with full page ads being ran from the current Loudoun Hospital in Lansdowne, only a little more than a mile down the road, or ads from the Broadlands. There is a lot of ink being spilt over this hospital. Truth be told, I don’t have too much of an opinion on the issue, except if it means more taxes for Loudoun at this time I can’t say I am too excited.
Well, this article has little to do with county battles and more to do with the large community of the BROADLANDS. I will try to stay on course.
THE BROADLANDS
The Broadlands is a beautiful community located in Loudoun County (20148). It is and is still being built on 1502 acres off of exit 5 of the Dulles Greenway in Ashburn. Van Metre Homes (a JD Power Quality Leader) is the developer of the land and has built the majority of the homes in the community. The Broadlands is estimated to be finished in 2010 and will have around 3,800 homes when fully developed.
The goal of the Broadlands when building was to preserve as much of the natural environment as possible. The community has set aside 150 acres of wetlands and woodlands for vegetation and wildlife. They even constructed a 5,000 square foot nature center. Not bad. Residents therefore are able to enjoy walking trails, ponds, birdhouses, and a “butterfly meadow.” I have to say that the quality and detail of developers has seemingly increased with the slow down of the real estate market.
Amenities and Shopping
Depending on where your home is located in the Broadlands you have access some great amenities. Every Broadlands resident has access to the community pool, tennis courts, parks, tot lots, etc.. with the community HOA fee which I believe runs around $150 a month. However, if you live in the southern part of the community which is mostly newer called Southern Walk you are blessed with an additional Open-Band fee than varies in price which includes cable, internet, and telephone. And no, until that community contract is up, you don’t have a choice of whether you will pay it.
For those of you who love local shops, the Broadlands currently has every Ashburn neighborhood beat. They have two large community shopping centers; Broadlands Marketplace and Broadlands Village Center. These places include some great restaurants such as Bone Fish, The Original Steakhouse (with the coolest sports bar in town), American Flatbread, and Glory Days. By the way, the classiest restaurant in town is in the Broadlands… Clyde’s Willow Creek Farm.
