Ashton at Dulles Corner

I lived on this property for a little over two years. Let me start by saying that I truly loved my apartment. I lived in a 2BR/2BA with a loft, and the high ceilings were wonderful. Unfortunately, that is where the positives ended.

The apartment did not cool or heat properly. Every summer, my electricity bill skyrocketed because the HVAC unit was constantly overworked trying—and failing—to cool the space. I raised this issue with both management companies (Greystar and Bozzuto), and neither... made a meaningful attempt to resolve it. I was repeatedly dismissed, passed back and forth, and ultimately expected to pay higher rent despite these unresolved issues.

The water pressure was also deplorable. After moving out and taking a shower in my new apartment, I realized just how much I had been suffering. For two years, I dealt with inconsistent, extremely low water pressure. When I raised this concern with management, I was initially blamed for the issue, which was absurd. Eventually, external plumbers were brought in, yet the problem remained unresolved. When I brought this issue to Bozzuto (new mgmt), I was given false promises that the issue would be addressed—again, contingent on paying more in rent. Absolutely not. It felt like a complete scam.

Overall, the building itself is fine, and the neighbors are pleasant. However, poor management and major unresolved maintenance issues create unnecessary stress and make the living experience uncomfortable.

One final note: the frequency of fire alarms going off is completely unacceptable. They occur at all hours of the day and night. In all my years of renting, I have never experienced anything like it.

If you are considering this building, I strongly urge you to carefully weigh the pros and cons and decide whether the downsides are something you can truly tolerate. Lee mas

I lived here in a 1x1 for a year from 2024-2025. The apartments are very spacious and I often did not hear neighbors other than briefly walking the halls. Lots of working professionals and a few families. Considering the location and cost of living in the area, it truly is a bang for your buck. Management was Greystar when I lived here, not sure how new management is. I had a “traditional” apartment instead of upgraded and preferred it more than their upgraded units! Very well kept and would... have continued living here if I didn’t move states. Lee mas

I was impressed how well maintained the unit has been. I am pretty happy with the floor plan and quiet neighborhood, so far.

The Ashton at Dulles Corner Community Mgt Team members is very quick in handling equipment malfunction. We have 2 incidences, The restroom and the washer, both were fixed and managed in several hrs.' after the phone reports.

Both the leasing office team and maintenance team are very unresponsive, especially with maintenance requests and other issues. I had to submit 5 tickets in some cases to get an issue addresses, and even then it was not fully addressed.
