South Four Corners, located between University Boulevard and Colesville Road, is a residential and commuter Four Corners neighborhood with mid-century brick colonials and leafy side streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the University Blvd & Colesville Rd junction, where small storefronts, takeout counters, and everyday services set a steady, lived-in rhythm. Housing mixes split-levels and ramblers with modest front lawns and mature trees. Sligo Creek Park’s trails and stream valley shape the outdoor backdrop. The nearby Four Corners commercial node adds errands and casual meetups without a downtown feel.
