Ashburn, VA - October 30, 2024 - Miller & Smith is bringing the magic of its “unicorn homes” to life, offering an exceptional combination of convenience, style, and individuality in the award-winning lifestyle community of Birchwood at Brambleton. These quick delivery homes, available for immediate move-in, take the mystery out of the often-time-consuming homebuying process by offering fully styled, expertly designed residences ready to welcome new homeowners. With a variety of elevator brownstones and elevator single-family homes now available, Miller & Smith is providing a prime opportunity for active adults aged 55+ to settle into a new home without the wait.
The term "unicorn home" playfully highlights the one-of-a-kind nature of each residence. These homes are designed with careful attention to detail, ensuring that no two homes are the same. For the discerning buyer looking for a blend of comfort and style with features like main-level living and the convenience of an in-home elevator, Miller & Smith’s quick delivery homes at Birchwood offer a seamless path to the next stage of living, with every element carefully curated for a truly personalized living experience.
“Our homes are designed to meet the needs of buyers who may be downsizing but aren’t quite ready to give up space,” said Stephanie Egan, Sales Manager for Birchwood’s single-family homes. “For example, the Delano, our single-family home, is perfect for those who still want a traditional home with storage, a spacious kitchen, and the ability to entertain family and friends. It’s ideal for 55+ buyers who are active but may also need to accommodate adult children or grandchildren in the home.”
The elevator feature, which comes standard in both the brownstones and single-family homes, makes these homes especially appealing for those looking to age in place comfortably. The convenience of an elevator allows residents to enjoy all the benefits of multi-level living without the limitations of stairs.
“The elevator isn’t just a luxury, it’s a necessity for many buyers,” noted Egan. “We see many homeowners with elderly parents moving in, or those planning for future mobility needs, and the elevator makes it possible to live comfortably on every level of the home."
Miller & Smith’s quick delivery homes offer a solution for buyers who need to move quickly due to changing life circumstances, providing flexibility and convenience that traditional homebuying processes often lack. Whether it’s a sudden family expansion, a job relocation, or the need to downsize while still maintaining enough space for multi-generational living, these homes are designed to address urgent needs without compromising on style or quality.
“We recently had a buyer whose daughters were coming home to finish their degrees, and his current house wasn’t big enough for everyone,” Egan shared. “Thanks to the availability of a quick delivery home, he was able to move in within a month and accommodate his family’s needs before the school year began. It really solved a major problem in the best way possible.”
The quick turnaround time helps to avoid the stress of temporary housing or a rushed renovation, making a transition as smooth as possible during a critical time.
Birchwood at Brambleton offers more than just homes — it’s a lifestyle. The community is renowned for its vibrant social scene, hosting activities like wine and food pairings, mixology classes, and beer tastings. This 55+ neighborhood provides the perfect environment for homeowners to stay active and engaged, surrounded by neighbors who share similar interests.
Eric Hansen, Sales Manager for the elevator brownstones at Birchwood, emphasized the importance of the community feel. “This age group loves to socialize and be part of the action. We offer so many opportunities for people to connect and enjoy life. Whether it’s hosting a brunch or attending a class, the residents here thrive on these shared experiences.”
