Cabin Branch in Clarksburg

–Clarksburg homes for sale
Cabin Branch is a new subdivision within the planned community of Clarksburg, MD. Conveniently located close to I-270, off exit 18, Cabin Branch sits east of Clarksburg Rd, between Cabin Branch Ave and Old Baltimore Rd. It is considered the western portion of planned Clarksburg.

The planned community of Clarksburg has been building and expanding at a steady pace since the early 2000’s, and Cabin Branch is the latest portion to be built. Much of the community is still under construction, and new home sales make up a good portion of the listing inventory.

Cabin branch, and Clarksburg in general, is an excellent place for walking, jogging or riding bikes. The community has lots of walking paths, and the 2,000 acre Black Hill Regional Park, located in Clarksburg, is a short drive away. Seneca Creek State Park is only about 20 minutes away by car.

Cabin Branch is only 5-10 min walking distance to Clarksburg Premium Outlets. It features over 80 outlet stores, such as Boss, Ann Taylor, Nike & Under Armour. There is actually a large playground right next to the shopping area. Clarksburg Village Center is only a couple minutes away by car. There you will find Harris Teeter and several restaurants, such as Grill Marx Steakhouse & Raw Bar, Red Bowl, Subway and Papa Johns.

There is one pool area in the center of the development with two separate pools and a clubhouse. Broadway Ave runs the through the center of the community. Byrne Park Drive runs next to the Winchester Homes portion of the community and meets up with Broadway Ave towards the middle of the subdivision. Next to Byrne Park Drive is a soccer field and large playground. The Playground is pretty popular among residents in the summer. There is a common grassy area in the center of the developed portion of the community called Tribute Park. There are also dog walking and clean-up stations throughout the subdivision.

Many residents in Clarksburg commute south, into Montgomery County and downtown D.C. The The traffic can be fairly heavy on the weekdays. One way to discover the commuting times is to actually drive the route before you buy. Start at the typical times with the heaviest traffic (morning and evening). In order to get the most accurate sample of the commuting times, I suggest testing the drive on Friday and one other day of the week. In addition to I-270, try 355 and Route 27.
