WaPo Offers Unique Chance to be Stepford Reader

WaPo is offering a special deal to its readers: a chance to live in the Stepford-type town of Ladysmith Village, “conveniently located between Fredericksburg and Richmond.” Sorry, no relation to Ladysmith Black Mambazo.

But the place sounds perfect. Maybe a little too perfect. It includes:

  • a resort-style pool
  • nature trails
  • 120 acres of open space
  • something called a “South River Sanctuary”
  • an on site elementary school (perfect for replacing all the Village children with robots ala Stepford)
  • homes starting at $180,000

The tagline: “Maybe it was the swing on my very first porch or the welcome basket left beside it.
