Why this home stands out
What sets 4212 Lakeview Parkway apart is the address itself: Lake of the Woods is one of the few gated communities in the region that functions almost like a small town. Two lakes, golf, fitness, dining, and green space are all inside the gates. You're not just buying a house — you're buying into a lifestyle that most neighborhoods simply can't replicate at any price point.
ALL OTHERS VA AREA 51 and the Locust Grove real estate market
Lake of the Woods is a private, gated community in Locust Grove, Virginia, tucked into Orange County roughly an hour southwest of Washington, D.C. and about 20 minutes from Fredericksburg. The community wraps around two lakes and delivers an amenity package that feels more like a resort than a subdivision — golf course, beaches, pools, equestrian center, campground, and a full calendar of community events. Locust Grove itself is a quiet, unincorporated community that has grown steadily as buyers discover how much space and lifestyle their dollar can unlock this far from the metro. The pace is slower here, the lots are generous, and the tree canopy is thick. For anyone craving distance from urban congestion without sacrificing access to major corridors, the Route 3 connection to I-95 and Route 20 makes commuting to Fredericksburg, Culpeper, or Charlottesville genuinely manageable.

Homes built in the late 1980s inside established communities like Lake of the Woods carry a character that newer cookie-cutter developments simply can't manufacture.
