RIVER AT THE CROSSINGS... MILES OF RIVER TO BOAT, SWIM & FISH!
Known simply as The Crossings
by those who know and love this place, this is a huge river front
community
in Hampshire County and one of the closest, nicest weekend/retirement
recreational
communities to the DC area. You can get here in UNDER 2 hours from
downtown
DC! Formerly a large farm, The Crossings has open and wooded, river
front
and upland, homes and home sites available. With over 200 lots
altogether,
there seem to always be a wide assortment of resales available due to
the
mobile DC community that comprises so many of the owners. There are
about
90 homes now, with one or more under construction at any time. A very
well
established community where a tour will easily convince you that things
are being done correctly. All the roads and physical amenities, such as
picnic shelters and playgrounds are well maintained. A security gate
keeps
out the curious as well as those up to no good. The Board of Directors
keeps the treasury in good shape (ALL dues up to date!) and appears to
be responsive to the needs of the community. There are a several miles
of river frontage, within The Crossings,
that you can use for tubing, canoing, fishing and swimming. You
don't need river frontage on your own lot here... the common areas are
not far from any lot and actually comprise the very best waterfront
areas
along the river. Float, tube, kayak, fish or canoe from one access
point
to another... four altogether, spread out over several miles of river.
Numerous public river entry points up and down the river for longer,
even
overnight boating trips! If you want to have prime recreational
property
in an upscale river community (at affordable prices), look no further
than
The Crossings. Lot prices normally range from about $25k to $60k.
