Long & Foster Living
La Plata, MD

La Plata real estate is located 30 miles southeast of Washington, D.C. and 45 miles southwest of Annapolis. La Plata is the county seat of Charles County, which is home to many of the nation’s bald eagles. The town was founded in 1885 with the arrival of the railroad and, according to legend, was named after the La Plata River in Argentina. Since then, much of La Plata real estate has been transformed into residential and commercial developments.

La Plata is currently experiencing a renaissance, thanks in part to the efforts of the town’s beautification commission. La Plata real estate is home to a number of thriving businesses, including a community theater and a twice-weekly farmer’s market. Many commuters to D.C., as well as many Charles County government workers, call La Plata real estate home. For more details on living in La Plata, see the facts below.
