Back when Y2K concerns were top of mind and “internet startup” were investment buzzwords, Brambleton was just a concept on paper. Today, those ambitious plans have evolved into an admired and widely coveted community. What once was vacant land in south Loudoun County has been transformed into an award-winning neighborhood for thousands of individuals and families who share our vision.
The 15-year journey from a blank slate to a collection of thriving neighborhoods stems from careful design and thoughtful execution. Building a residential area from the ground up allowed developers to incorporate the most sought-after community features directly into the framework of residents’ lives. Walking trails, swimming pools and convenient shopping form the backbone of public spaces. A collaboration with local government to instill top notch schools was a number one priority then and still remains today. The highest caliber builders were enlisted to construct the homes. At each step along the way, well-considered actions shaped the environment into the Brambleton that residents now enjoy.

Brambleton is full of overachievers. And no one proves this better than Beth Huck: a mother, small business owner, board member At-Large for Loudoun County Public Schools and general Brambletonian about town. But the last person who will sing Beth’s praises is Beth herself. “I don’t like attention,” she says, “I’m a behind-the-scenes person and would rather just do the work and get results.”

If You Build It…. They Will Come… #BAMyr1
A Justin Timberlake tune and high fives from teachers greeted students at Loudoun County’s newest school Monday morning.
The 781 students attending Madison’s Trust Elementary in Brambleton didn’t hold back their excitement to begin a new school year at a brand new school. As they made their way into the gym for a high-energy assembly, they clapped, they danced, they sang; one kid busted out an air guitar.
“We are all so happy to have you here,” Principal David Stewart announced to the school’s inaugural student body.
When he was hired as Madison’s Trust’s principal in February, he toured what was then a snow-dusted construction site. “There was no floors, no ceiling, no heat or air conditioning…” he said. “Now, there’s air conditioning, lights and color—and all of you. 781 of you.”
Stewart called on the fifth-graders, as the “seniors of the school,” to be good role models for the younger students going into the year.
Loudoun Now Article 8/29/16
