About this House

This is the version of Burke living you’ve been looking for. Set on a hilltop, this spacious townhome offers room to live, work, gather, and grow. The entry level opens to a large bonus room ideal as a movie and game room, home gym, or office. Add a simple sliding door, and it could also function as a private fourth bedroom. This level also provides abundant storage for bikes, luggage, holiday decorations, and everything else you want neatly tucked away. Upstairs, the living room opens directly to the spacious backyard, extending everyday life outdoors. Inside, it flows into a formal dining room that could just as easily serve as a second living area. The recently remodeled kitchen is crisp and white, with generous counter space for cooking and entertaining. The adjoining eat-in area has ample room for casual dining, homework, or a home office, while a full pantry wall provides the kind of storage that makes daily life easier. The top level offers three bedrooms and two full baths, including a primary suite with large windows, excellent closet space, and an en-suite bath. And then there’s the location which is the reason this neighborhood holds its appeal. Rolling Road VRE is just a stroll away, making it possible to leave the car at home and commute into Washington with ease. Burke Station Square’s park, playground, tennis and basketball courts, and wooded walking trails are close by, with membership available at the neighborhood swim club. The seasonal Burke Farmers Market brings local vendors to the Burke Centre VRE station on Saturday mornings. Just down the road, Old Keene Mill Shopping Center offers Trader Joe’s, Mezeh, South Block, Planet Fitness, Walgreens, Duck Donuts, Starbucks, and more. This is the kind of neighborhood people move into and don’t want to leave.

    "Neighborhood is quiet, plenty of schools around, close to Hospital in Fairfax and close to multiple urgent cares, multiple shopping centers nearby and right in the middle of everything if you wanted to go to Fair oaks mall or Tyson’s mall or Springfield mall. Not much crime happens in this area which is good, occasionally you will see homeless people around or many times people begging for money on the street but most of them aren’t even homeless. "
