Galyn Manor Brunswick MD Housing Report

When it comes to real estate in Frederick County, one of the most popular commuter locations has been Brunswick MD. The prices in this area have been relatively lower than the rest of the county. It’s very convenient to the MARC train. And with the price of gas today, you need to have options available.

One of the newer communities in Brunswick is the Galyn Manor development. It has almost 300 homes and was built back in the 2003. You will find homes built by Pulte, NV homes and Ryan Homes. Here’s a look at what is happening in that development.

All though the average time on market is almost five months; the SOLDS were only 77 days. This tells me two things; they were priced appropriately and in great condition (or price adjusted to make the condition a non-issue.)

I have always liked the Brunswick area. I believe it will become a major landing spot for the whole DC Metro area. It is already close to some major towns like Leesburg, VA and Frederick, MD. It’s a quick drive into Rockville, MD too and did I mention the Potomac River? This area of Brunswick really needs to be the focus. It worked (or at least is beginning to work for the Carroll Creek Area) You have the C&O Canal National Park run through here too.

Here’s a little Virtual Tour of Brunswick MD

Have a great day…and don’t forget to give me a call if you have any questions.

Market Conditions in Brunswick MD

This little town is nestled along the Potomac River just off Route 17. A very popular area as the prices were increasing in the mid-2000s, Brunswick MD real estate has been a test of time. The attraction to this area was two fold; Affordable housing prices and commuter convenience to Washington DC.

As the gas prices began to soar, the first time home buyers from the Greater DC area started to flock to the area. New homes were build in Galyn Manor and existing home prices began to sail. Plenty of speculators dumped money in remodeling the older homes and offered them at attractive prices.

This sleepy little railroad town has its own MARC train stop and a few quick commuter routes to Northern Virginia and other major metro areas like Rockville and Bethesda. Located about half way between Leesburg, VA and Frederick, MD, this makes Brunswick attractive to the avid shopper. You have the Leesburg Outlets only 18 miles away and in the other direction, you have FSK Mall in Frederick.
