Lovettsville Homes and Condos for Sale

The town of Lovettsville, North Virginia, was established in 1836 and was settled primarily by German immigrants. Until today, the city has maintained a population of no more than approximately 1,600 people. The town of Lovettsville got its start when in 1722 the Treaty of St. Albans made the Blue Ridge Mountains a buffer between the Native American tribes and the first white settlers in the area. At this point in the town’s history, Germans began to move to the Loudoun Valley to farm the fertile soil. Due to the large German population, before it was called Lovettsville, it was called merely “The German Settlement.” In 1820, David Lovett turned his land into individual quarter-acre lots and formed a town called Newtown. As the city experienced a boom in population, the name was changed to Lovettsville in 1828. Though the General Assembly has designated it as a town, it was not officially incorporated until 1876. During the Civil War, the Union troops used Lovettsville as a place for crossing the vital Potomac River. In addition to that, at present Lovettsville is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
