Londontowne, MD Real Estate
Founded in 1683 as a colonial seaport town, Londontowne enjoyed considerable success as a port of trade, and was once under consideration to be the capitol of Maryland, a distinction it lost to Annapolis. Unfortunately, the town slipped in to relative obscurity after a series of economic blows during the revolutionary war and did not recover until the mid 20th century, when concerned residents spearheaded historical restoration of the area. Today, the Edgewater subdivision is celebrated for its 18th Century William Brown House and State Mark. Londontowne's largest neighbor, Annapolis, serves not only as Maryland's political hub, home to the governor and the state Assembly, whose state house is the oldest in the nation, but holds a booming business district and several well-known Universities. Students from all over the world flock to Annapolis to attend the prestigious US Naval Academy and St. John's College, the third oldest college in America. Each of the institutions' picturesque campuses enhance the overall beauty of this culturally diverse community rich with tradition and history and their student populations contribute to a burgeoning cultural scene. While artistic institutions like the Maryland Hall for the Arts continue to be delight the public with their semi annual symphonies, ballets, and theatrical productions, Annapolis' main attraction has long been its quaint shopping district, which frames the breathtaking harbor of the bay. Packed with high end boutiques, coffee shops, and gourmet restaurants, downtown Annapolis is the perfect place to bring your family for a day of fun. With close proximity to the metropolitan areas of Baltimore and Washington, DC, strong public and private schools, beautiful waterfront views, Londontowne is an ideal home for anyone looking to enjoy a maritime location. Londontowne offers homes similar to those found in Annapolis but for a more affordable price.
