Village of Friendship Heights, MD Homes For Sale
What is a sister community? Generally speaking, a city, town or village that shares its name, and often some common history, with another community. Often, they can be found on opposite sides of a border. A good example is Friendship Village, also sometimes referred to as the Village of Friendship Heights. It gets kind of confusing!
The subject of this particular profile can be found in Montgomery County, Maryland, just north of its Washington, DC twin. Real estate properties here are almost exclusively condos for sale.
Originally, there was just one large Friendship Heights, dating back to a “friendship grant” given to colonists in 1713. At the time, the Washington, DC/Maryland border didn't exist in the same way that it does today.The area was all farmland at the time, with a focus on tobacco.
Around 1900, a streetcar line from Georgetown arrived, at which point the community on the DC side of the border began to develop further.
But our Maryland version was slower to develop—a few houses here and there, and then the above-mentioned forming of the Village of Friendship Heights subset, which was founded in 1914.
