This one of a kind community is located on the north and south sides of Route 50 in Ashburn and Aldie, Virginia. Willowsford is inspired by the natural environment, community connections and daily experiences that add up to a memorable life.

Of their 4,000 acres, 2,000 acres of Willowsford’s land have been set aside for environmental preservation, recreation, trails and agricultural use. The other 2,000 acres feature homes from 8 of the area’s finest homebuilders, each collection of homes designed exclusively for Willowsford and their 4 intimate neighborhoods.

This land, managed by The Willowsford Conservancy, includes an elaborate network of trails through dense woodlands and pastures, Willow Lake, a 300-acre working farm, and land designated to remain as open space.

Willowsford Farm is an essential part of the farm-to-table lifestyle here, featuring fresh vegetables and farm products. Homeowners can participate in the community supported agriculture program or shop at the Willowsford Farm Market.

Willowsford is comprised of four neighborhoods—called villages—in some of Virginia’s most beautiful country. The Grant and The Grange are north of Route 50 in Ashburn, VA, and The Grove and The Greens are south of Route 50 in Aldie, VA.

The community is brought together by an outstanding and unique array of amenities already in place. The Lodge at Willow Lake links The Grove and The Greens and is reminiscent of a large family lake house. It includes a grand patio, bocce courts, a yoga lawn and event lawn, a pool complex and a terraced sun deck overlooking the mountains. The Boat House Information Center is also here with a fishing dock, outdoor fire pit, canoe launch and storage.

Sycamore House, the centerpiece of The Grange, is an elegant community gathering space in the grand mansion style highlighting a teaching and demonstration kitchen. It overlooks a grassy outdoor amphitheater and opens onto a large village green surrounded by “country-formal” gardens with a fish pond, and a resort-style swimming pool with cabanas and a sun ledge. The Tenant House Information Center is also located here.

Visit Willowsford and you’ll see for yourself how their signature home designs highlight this amazing location and the lifestyle that it offers today’s homebuyers and why they’ve been chosen as Community of the Year three years in a row.
