Upper Marlboro Homes and Condos for Sale

One of the oldest southern Maryland towns, and once a port town, the Town of Upper Marlboro is a wonderful place to live. Boasting a long, rich history, Upper Marlboro sits on the Western Branch of the Patuxent River and dates back to colonial times. First settled in 1695, this remarkable community has served as the county seat of Prince George’s County since 1721. Now a large urban and suburban area, Upper Marlboro is the birthplace of John Carroll, the founder of Georgetown University, and his brother Daniel Carroll, a signer of the United States’ Constitution.

Boasting an abundance of breathtaking natural beauty, Upper Marlboro has a great location just outside of Washington DC and within a short drive to Bowie, Clinton and Waldorf. Upper Marlboro is home to around 850,000 residents and is often confused with the unincorporated neighboring community of Greater Upper Marlboro. However, Greater Upper Marlboro is composed of seventy-seven square miles and is home to only 20,000 residents, making it far smaller than the Town of Upper Marlboro.

Upper Marlboro is home to a charming downtown area which affords residents convenient access to much needed services through multiple local businesses found along Main Street. Additionally, the civic organizations of Upper Marlboro provide opportunities for residents to stay engaged and help create a true sense of community spirit and pride. Buying a home in Upper Marlboro allows you to enjoy the numerous community events hosted each year, including annual favorites such as the Marlborough Day, Cruisin’ Main Street, and the homecoming parades of Frederick Douglass High School and Dr. Henry A. Wise Jr. High School. For all of these reasons and many more not listed here, Upper Marlboro is a truly wonderful place to buy a home in the Washington DC area.
