What This House Offers
Award-Winning Design - Thoughtfully Crafted 55+ Living This exceptional two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath, two-level condominium offers refined living in a... truly distinctive setting. Facing the W&OD Trail and just one mile from the West Falls Church Metro, the location blends tranquility with everyday convenience. Groceries, pharmacies, and local restaurants are an easy 10-minute walk or five-minute bike ride away. Built in 2019, this community was honored with the Urban Land Institute’s Award for Excellence in Residential Development, a recognition of its innovative design and forward-thinking approach to housing. Designed to elevate both lifestyle and sustainability, the home features geothermal heating and cooling and solar-powered electric vehicle charging in the carport, reducing your environmental footprint while enhancing comfort. This age-restricted (55+) pocket neighborhood is the first of its kind in the National Capital Region. The intimate enclave consists of ten charming Craftsman-style cottages centered around a shared Common House, a beautifully appointed gathering space ideal for entertaining, hosting celebrations, or simply enjoying time with neighbors and friends. Inside, you’ll find 9-foot ceilings and abundant natural light streaming through large, energy-efficient windows, creating a bright and airy atmosphere throughout. Hardwood floors span the main living areas, with carpeted stairs leading to the second level. The first floor is zero-step and wheelchair accessible, complete with a curb-less shower for ease and flexibility. Built-in fire sprinklers add peace of mind. An ideal downsizing alternative to traditional multi-story condominiums, this home offers comfort, character, and community in equal measure. Enjoy the nearby W&OD Trail and the local farmers market, all part of a lifestyle designed for connection, wellness, and ease.
