The community spans single-family-detached homes, townhomes, and condominiums across more than 1,500 properties, all sharing a robust HOA-managed amenity package.

About Little Rocky Run

Little Rocky Run is divided into multiple sub-sections — each with its own street network and slightly different housing mix — but all share the same community amenity package and HOA. The community is anchored by the Little Rocky Run stream valley, which gives the neighborhood its name and provides the green spine of the development. Homes range from townhomes and condominiums on the entry-level end to larger single-family-detached executive homes on premium lots.
