Sherwood Forest - Drumeldra Hills

Sherwood Forest is a well-established neighborhood in the Colesville area of Silver Spring, Maryland. Bounded by New Hampshire Avenue to the east, Randolph Road to the south, Bonifant Road to the north, and the Northwest Branch Park to the west, the community offers a peaceful suburban feel while maintaining excellent connectivity to nearby amenities and major commuter routes.

Development in Sherwood Forest began in the 1950s, with additional sections added over the following decades, resulting in a charming mix of architectural styles—from ramblers and colonials to split-levels and contemporaries. Most homes sit on generous quarter-acre or larger lots, framed by mature trees and beautifully landscaped yards that truly come alive in the springtime with blooming cherry blossoms.

The neighborhood’s sense of community is anchored by Westover Elementary School and the Robin Hood Swim Club, both of which serve as gathering spots for local families. Nearby, the Doral community blends seamlessly into the area, sharing the same friendly atmosphere and community pride that define Sherwood Forest.

Residents enjoy exceptional convenience to FDA’s White Oak campus, downtown Silver Spring, Bethesda, and major regional destinations like Washington, D.C., and Baltimore. The Glenmont Metro Station (Red Line) and the Intercounty Connector (ICC-200) provide quick, reliable access across the entire D.C. metropolitan area.

With its spacious homes, mature trees, and close-knit feel, Sherwood Forest remains one of Silver Spring’s most desirable neighborhoods—offering the perfect balance of tranquility, community, and convenience.
