Potomac Green vs Four Seasons at Ashburn
Overview
Both communities sit in Ashburn, Loudoun County, but they solve different housing problems. Potomac Green by Del Webb is a gated 55+ neighborhood of approximately 1,363 homes with single-family, villa, and condominium products and its own roughly 29,000 sq ft clubhouse campus. Four Seasons at Ashburn is a much smaller K. Hovnanian (Four Seasons) condominium community of about 80 units, with amenity access tied to Ashburn Village Pavilion pools and amenities rather than a Del Webb-style private mega-clubhouse.
If you already know you want Ashburn services and medical/retail proximity, this comparison is usually about product type and monthly association cost—not geography. Potomac Green’s recent MLS HOA context is roughly $288–$340 per month; Four Seasons listings cite combined HOA fees around $739 per month. Confirm both in the resale packet for any specific home.
Roya Delaney uses this pairing when buyers are torn between a mixed-housing Del Webb campus and a lock-and-leave condo-only building community in the same town.
Who each community fits
Potomac Green
- You want a gated Del Webb (Pulte) setting with a full clubhouse, indoor and outdoor pools, and tennis courts.
- You may need single-family or villa living—not only a condominium—inside the same Ashburn 55+ community.
- You prefer a larger resale market (about 1,363 homes, built 2004–2014) over a boutique condo inventory.
Four Seasons at Ashburn
- You specifically want condominium-only living in a compact ~80-unit community.
- You are comfortable with amenity access via Ashburn Village Pavilion rather than a private Del Webb clubhouse campus.
- You prefer a short, consistent build window (2006–2008) and a simpler product mix to shop.

Decision framework
- Start with home type. If you need a detached or villa footprint, Four Seasons at Ashburn is not a fit—it is condominium-only. Potomac Green is the Ashburn option in this pair that offers single-family, villa, and condo paths.
- Next, compare amenity models. Potomac Green centers on its own gated clubhouse campus (indoor/outdoor pools and tennis). Four Seasons relies on Ashburn Village Pavilion access—verify what Pavilion access means for owners and guests in the association documents.
- Then model monthly cost. The published MLS contexts differ sharply (~$288–$340 for Potomac Green versus ~$739 combined for Four Seasons). Never finalize a budget until the HOA resale packet confirms the assessment for the exact unit or lot.
- Finally, decide how much community scale you want. Potomac Green’s ~1,363-home size usually means more listing churn and more street-to-street variation; Four Seasons’ ~80 units can mean sparse inventory and a smaller peer group.
Considerations
- Both are Loudoun 55+ communities in Ashburn, so county tax and service context is similar—product and HOA structure drive the decision more than location.
- Potomac Green’s decade-long build window (2004–2014) means finishes and floor plans vary by phase and product type; tour more than one example of the product you want.
- Four Seasons’ higher combined HOA figure from recent MLS should be underwritten carefully against what the fee includes versus Potomac Green’s lower MLS range.
- Gated entry at Potomac Green adds guest and delivery logistics that Four Seasons (not gated in our data) does not share in the same way.
