South Lake Mixed Use Development

Chesapeake Realty Partners is proud to co-lead South Lake, the transformative $1.3 billion, 381-acre mixed-use development in Bowie, MD, through a joint venture with NAI Michael. Anchored by the nationally recognized Liberty Sports Park that attracted 344,000 visits in its first year alone, and strategically located at the intersection of MD Routes 214 and 301, just minutes from Washington, DC, Annapolis, and Baltimore, South Lake redefines destination living by integrating residential, retail, and recreational amenities.

CRP is leading the development of South Lake’s residential component in partnership with four leading homebuilders: Ryan Homes, Mid-Atlantic Builders, NVHomes, and DRB Homes, to deliver a thoughtfully curated mix of condominiums, townhomes, and single-family residences. This broad offering meets a range of lifestyle needs and price points.

In addition, Chesapeake developed Fairmont at South Lake, a 325-unit luxury apartment community – the first new rental community built in Bowie in nearly 15 years. Fairmont has set a new benchmark for multifamily living in the region with resort-like amenities for residents across its mix of one-, two, and three-bedroom units.

At the heart of South Lake is a vibrant commercial district anchored by national and local retailers, restaurants, hospitality, and entertainment venues. The development is centered around a scenic lake with a clubhouse, walking trails, pocket parks, and open space amenities, creating a fully integrated, “car-optional” living environment.

As South lake continues to gain momentum with strong residential sales and national retail interest, CRP’s work exemplifies its long-standing ability to deliver high-quality, market-responsive communities.
