Where is Overbrook?
Overbrook is a Belair section inside City of Bowie limits, north of Annapolis Road and east of MD 197. The City places it in Council District 1. Streets all start with the letter O, which is how you can tell the section from an address. See the full Belair section guide for how all fifteen fit together.
What kind of homes are in Overbrook?
Levitt and Sons built Overbrook between 1964 and 1968 as part of Belair at Bowie. Homes are detached houses from the original Levitt models, mostly Cape Cods, ramblers and colonials, and many have been expanded or updated since. Two homes on the same street can be very different inside, so compare additions, updates and lot size, not just the model. Our Levitt homes guide covers the models.
Which schools serve Overbrook?
Assignment is by address, not by section name, and elementary and middle school lines can split a neighborhood. Check the exact house in the PGCPS School Finder before you write an offer, and compare all Bowie schools by level.
What should buyers check in Overbrook?
- Water. Overbrook is on the City of Bowie water system, not WSSC. The City lists it among the neighborhoods its water plant serves, a system the Levitt Corporation built in the early 1960s. See the City water service page.
- City taxes. Overbrook is inside City of Bowie limits, so homes pay the City property tax on top of the Prince George’s County rate. Our property tax explainer walks through the math.
- HOA or civic association. Ask what dues cover and whether there are rules on fences, sheds or additions.
