People need to stop touting this precise misinformation. Schools are no where near getting redistricted for this area. If you only being speculative without any strong supporting data, you are not being helpful.

Correction- schools MAY get redristricted, you also shouldn’t give false hope that they are NOT going to be redristricted

I've had my eye on the community for 2+ years after the first sign went up. For us, the location, community design, and new construction were our top factors.

When is your proposed move-in date? Waiting for new lot release but dont know if we want to wait for more than a year.

Thanks for sharing this article. Is there anyway we can get in touch as we bought an Orchard as well.

To the posters who purchased the homes- can you please tell us about the appliance packages? In the Patterson Orchard model it is JennAir. in the Travillah what brand are the appliances? What are the different appliance packages? Thanks

Standard for all collections is whirlpool.
For 18k kitchen package everything goes to Jenn Air which is a great deal...the stove alone is over $10000 value
Google Jenn Air JDRP548HL or JS42PPDUDE to get an idea of what’s included.

School district is Soon to be changed to less desirable schools

No reason you can’t add it now...it’s not a structural addition. Did you not see it on the options list?

+1... yes please provide the link that say school district is soon to be changed. No one is giving anyone false hope by asking for data and supporting evidence. Schools MAY get redistricted all the time. To assert that it "will be redistricted" or that "is soon to be changed to less desirable schools..." seem odd to continuously make when it comes to this area.

You’re not gonna find a link because it hasn’t been decided.

You need to follow the BOE. They seem to have gotten sidetracked from redistricting a bit given covid. It was a hot topic when the school board election happened, and this development is closer to QO than Wootton. It is succeptible if they decide to redistrict and would likely drop the value by $100K (I say this is a neighbor who lives nearby). Yes, every house could potentially be redistributed, but this area where it sits is gonna be easily targeted.

I agree with everything you say. Except, I would say more than a $100k drop is likely, given the high price point of these homes. I would predict more like a drop of 10-15% of the home price. I have lived in Montgomery county for a long time, even going to elementary, middle and high school in the area. What people don’t understand is parents go crazy trying to live in the wootton school district, to the point where they throw all rhyme and reason out the window. This way of thinking and the historically low interest rates are what is fueling the high prices at Mt. Prospect. These prices will clearly stabiliize in a few months/a year and combine that with redristricting by MCPS (who have a history of doing crazy redistricting that push their agenda, just look at clarksburg High and Seneca Valley high for starters. But that’s a whole other thread in itself) prices will surely drop. But by then toll brothers will be long gone and laughing all the way to the bank and kids will be redistricting to go to QO which is only 2.3 miles away. Good luck Mt. Prospect buyers!
