Neighborhood Spotlight: Exeter Leesburg, Va There are few communities in the Loudoun County area that have more history surrounding them then Exeter in Leesburg. The historical Exeter dates back to the pre Civil War era. First as a major camp site and trading route then as a Civil War encampment and plantation. One interesting historical factoid is that George Washington’s Great- Nephew was married at the plantation that once served Exeter. The area changed hands over the
Civil War as both armies crisscrossed the area during the Gettysburg campaign. As you walk the trails that connect Exeter you will notice many historical markers doting the neighborhood.
Exeter the modern neighborhood was developed in three phases starting in the early 80’s. Exeter had several different builders including a few national and local builders. This gives the neighborhood a wide variety of floor plans to choose from. My personal favorite has been the Pulte floor plans for both the townhouses and single family homes. Exeter has all the amenities one would expect form a large planned community. This includes tennis courts, pool (some parts of the neighborhood do not have pool privileges), walking trails that connect the entire neighborhood and lots of open space! There are a total of 800+ homes with townhouses and single families homes split almost evenly throughout. For a starter neighborhood the prices are unbeatable for both single families and townhouses. I have sold many single family homes to buyers who wanted more space then a townhouse but couldn't see paying Loudoun County prices.
