Subdivisions in Evans? (Martinez, Martin: new home, neighborhoods, schools)

[carrieJ]

Can anyone recommend any great subdivisions in Evans?
We are thinking about relocating there for my husband's job from MD in the next few months. We have two small children, so would like something really family friendly.
I just saw one online called Farmington Pinebrook, which looks really nice, any suggestions?

thank you

Tudor Branch & Carriage Hill has some nice new homes that range from the mid-200s to low-300s. Also, Jones Creek and Westlake are good options. What is your price range?

[carrieJ]

We'll be looking in the 200-300,000 range.

Thank you

Hi Carrie

You can browse homes that are available in our local mls. Main

As far as Farmington/Pinebrook go. It is a very nice area. located off Hereford Farm Rd. Which is close to the heart of Evans. The only thing I didn't really like about a lot of the homes that were 2 story was the fact that most of the stairs that went up had a weird style. Like an "L" shape and they were very narrow. So getting furniture upstairs would be a pain in the rear. Not saying all the homes are like that, but a lot that I did show a few years back were like that.

I am an INACTIVE licensed realtor, so I would be glad to give you more info about the area, etc. I have lived in Martinez all my life.

Also, we have a local Mom's playgroup for Evans/Martinez area. if you are interested. Feel free to PM or email me anytime.

Farmington, Pine brook, and tudor branch are all good neighborhoods. I'm not sure if somebody mentioned West lake which is a very nice area.

We have just moved into Knob Hill. It is a very nice neighborhood and has neighborhood get togethers and activities.

A couple of others to keep in mind are the ones off of Hardy McManus Rd. like Highgrove at Williamsburg, Somerset at Williamsburg, etc. In our experience, these neighborhoods have more kids of all ages, as compared to West Lake, Nicoles Cove, and others that have a larger number of teenagers.

FWIW, we live in Highgrove and love it. It's not uncommon for the kids on the block to be out playing together, and we don't worry about sending them to one another's house.

I recommend Riverwood Plantation. The schools are in the neighborhood and are walking distance. There is an active social committe which is great for meeting your neighbors. They have a neighborhood pool with a swim team and several parks.
