Leesburg Retail for Lease - Leesburg/West Loudoun
Opportunities like this rarely surface in the Town of Leesburg.
248 Loudoun Street SW is a fully licensed, turn-key childcare center available for lease for the first time in years — offering an experienced operator the rare chance to step into an established, purpose-built facility without the timeline and cost of building one from scratch.
The Space
The approximately 2,080 square foot building is configured specifically for childcare operations and includes four classrooms, a commercial kitchen, and a private outdoor play area with playground equipment included. The playground boundaries are clearly defined and dedicated to the tenant's use. The space is licensed for 48 children — a meaningful capacity for an operator ready to move beyond the limitations of a home-based program and into a true commercial center environment.
The Opportunity
For the experienced home-based childcare operator, this is the logical next step. Home-based licensing caps enrollment and limits revenue. This facility offers the infrastructure, capacity, and licensing foundation to grow a professional operation without overextending into a large-scale buildout. Four classrooms. A real kitchen. A fenced play yard. Everything already in place.
The Market
Leesburg is growing — and the demand for quality childcare is growing with it. The town's current population stands at over 50,000 and is continuing to grow, with more than 1,700 new housing units currently under development within town limits alone. Nearly 1,600 additional homes have been approved along the Evergreen Mills Road corridor, bringing an influx of young families to the Leesburg market. The median household income in Leesburg is $145,205, with an average annual household income of $177,274 — one of the highest in the Commonwealth. Adults between 25 and 44 make up over 30% of the population, the exact demographic driving childcare demand. 57% of Leesburg residents 25 and older hold a bachelor's degree or higher — a highly educated, dual-income community that prioritizes and invests in quality early education.
This is not a market searching for childcare. This is a market underserved by it.
