Willow Lawn Cottages, a Small, Established 55+ Community in Winchester, Virgina, Has Single Family Homes, a Clubhouse and a Quiet Ambiance
Outside of Washington, D.C., Winchester is the site of Willow Lawn Cottages, a small 55+ community with just 120 single family homes. It was built over a five year period from 1999 to 2004.
This quiet development is spread across just five streets. Properties sit fairly closely together, and lawns are small. Every home is single story with a brick and/or light colored vinyl exterior, a pitched roof, an attached one car garage, a small front porch and a recessed doorway. Floor plans range from 1,010 square feet to 1,645 square feet with two bedrooms and two baths. Most homes have vaulted ceilings, ceiling fans and large windows.
Prices start in the mid- to high-$200,000s. The HOA fee is about $235 per month. Please verify these prices with a Realtor as they are bound to change over time.
Willow Lawn does not have a lot of amenities, but residents enjoy a nice clubhouse with a fitness room, a great room, a game room and more. A coffeeshop is just across the street.

Virginia:
The Commonwealth of Virginia is on the southern Atlantic coast. Its nicknames include Old Dominion and Mother of Presidents (eight American presidents were born here). The motto for the state is Sic Semper Tyrannis, meaning Thus Always to Tyrants. This motto is on both the state's seal (designed in 1776) and the state's flag (first used in the 1830s).
The Virginia Company established the Colony of Virginia and Jamestown in 1607. The state was one of the Thirteen Colonies during the American Revolution and joined the Confederacy during the Civil War. Richmond was even named the Confederate capital. Today, the Virginia General Assembly is the oldest continuous legislative body in the Western world.
Western Virginia has a distictly rural, southern feeling while eastern Virgina is home to military installations and northern Virginia is where many Washington, D.C. lobbyists and government workers live.
The Blue Ridge Mountains, Chesapeake Bay, the Shenandoah Valley and miles of eastern shore beaches are Virginia highlights.
