Kentlands

A 352-acre planned community that uses traditional neighborhood and community design principles to create a small town feeling. The design relies on a hierarchy of streets built in a modified grid, with most homes close to the street on small lots ranging from 2,500 to 9,000 square feet. The community incorporates a variety of housing types-including detached, attached, apartments, and condominiums-as well as a school, a shopping center, a child care center, and a recreation center.
