Welcome to Your Leesburg, VA Real Estate Guide
Life in Leesburg, VA
Leesburg, VA is a beautiful peaceful suburban community about 45 miles west of Washington, DC. Residents with hectic jobs in DC love the relaxed feel of Leesburg. However, with so many contracting and technology companies now nearby, many no longer need to drive into the city for work. Once a sleepy little town, Leesburg has been coming to life with a bevy of exciting new restaurants, entertainment, and recreational options.
Leesburg has a fascinating history spanning more than three centuries. Way back in 1757, local officials decided to build the new Loudoun County Courthouse here, and the Town of Leesburg went on to become officially established in 1813. During the Civil War, numerous battles were fought here, the most famous being the Battle of Balls Bluff. The Potomac River is just a few miles away and it formed the dividing line between the Union States and the Southern States. After the war, the town struggled to come back from the scorched-earth tactics commonly used in battle. Being so close to DC helped in the recovery, along with the railroad that farmers relied on to transport their crops to surrounding regions. Resident George C. Marshall put Leesburg on the map in the 20th Century, having devised the Marshall Plan that allowed Europe to rebuild after WWII. Leesburg is proud of its small-town identity, which it’s always tried to retain, but it hasn’t been easy with the rapid growth of Northern VA, and Loudoun County in particular.
