[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi all,

Just moved back to the area for a new hybrid position in government affairs where I commute to Metro Center only 2 or 3 days a week.  I have always loved living on Capitol Hill for the historic charm, but we are looking at buying outside of the city in a more affordable area.  I just would like it to be historic/charming and family friendly with townhomes and single family homes available to purchase or build under $700k.

I normally gravitate to VA over MD, but recently I saw listings in Brookeville/Ashton areas and thought they were beautiful and bucolic and affordable. How are the schools?  Commute times to Metro Center?  And has anyone here ever taken advantage of MD's student loan forgiveness program for first time homebuyers (up to $40k forgiven when you sign the mortgage!) Insane.

Thoughts in general on Brookeville and slightly further north  vs. VA hunt country and Old Town Manassas/Nokesville farm country?  Trying to snag a historic charmer sfh if I'm lucky![/quote]

I think you’d love for what your needs are! Close enough to DC, bucolic, and affordable! Some may find it boring or slower paced but it sounds like you might enjoy the change of pace. I would also try posting in the education section on this forum too for more specific advice on the public schools in that area. [/quote]
