Ana Marie Estates, a Signature Community by W. Boutros & Co.

Peaceful settings, walking trails, spring-fed ponds, and seven generous acres of green space make Ana Marie Estates an ideal location for you and your family to call home.

Located in Waynesboro, Virginia, Ana Marie Estates has gorgeous mountain views of the Blue Ridge Mountains with winding roads that run naturally along the contours of the area's rolling hills.  Ana Marie Estates is a signature community developed by W. Boutros & Co. 

About Ana Marie Estates' Developer and Builder

W. Boutros &. Co. joined the Shenandoah Valley real estate community in 1984 founding their business on a commitment to providing new home buyers with high-quality, value-added homes. After building several hundred homes and developing three successful residential communities, Boutros' son and daughter joined him in the family business. With a strong work ethic and commitment for integrity, W. Boutros & Co. continues today as an innovator in the real estate development and new home construction industry.

The Idea behind Ana Marie Estates

Lillian Boutros, Old Dominion Realty REALTOR® and Ana Marie Estates Representative talked about how the community originated.  "It all started with the land. Almost 300 rolling acres with mountain views, peaceful settings, spring fed ponds, and generous acres of Green space suggested how the community should evolve, thus the plan for Ana Marie Estates emerged naturally. The vision was clear: to create a destination where natural features, manmade amenities and neighborhood activities would bring family and friends together like no other community in the Waynesboro area." commented Ms. Boutros.

"In addition to developing the real estate subdivision itself, we also serve as the community's home builder.  Our homes' floorplans are designed with one purpose: 'real living for today's modern families.' Let me explain:  We've incorporated 'smart space' design into our plans using larger kitchen, open family rooms, nine foot ceilings, and more windows to give our new home buyers more natural light and a more useful space for their families."

W. Boutros & Co. has several different home collections from which new home buyers may choose or to use as a starting point for their custom-designed homes.  The few samples of their home collections include:

The Joss

The Hinton

The Pierre
