Tucked in the trees just off of Old Bridge Road in Prince William County is the quiet community of Westridge. Coming down the main tree lined drive you come upon the large community center, pond and fountain and you know you are in a neighborhood that makes you feel welcome.
Many times the community of Westridge is lumped together with its neighbor Lake Ridge but you will find difference between the two. Westridge has its own community center, its home owners association and is on the “other side” of Old Bridge Road Road. Westridge has a number of different home styles from condo townhouses, townhouses and detached homes. Are you looking for a Georgian colonial, a wrap around porch or perhaps something a bit more modern? Then you will be able to find it in Westridge.
Want to get some exercise? Numerous walking paths meander through the trees, over the bridges at the lake and pass by the community center which offers a huge swimming pool for summer fun and a big play ground for families with children.
