Property Description
Welcome to this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath condominium in the sought-after Parkfairfax community, where comfort, convenience, and community come together. Ideally situated just a short walk from Shirlington's vibrant restaurants, shops, and entertainment, the home also offers easy access to I-395 and public transportation with a bus stop conveniently located just outside the circle parking area. Surrounded by open green space and mature trees, the residence enjoys peaceful views and a tranquil setting that residents love. Inside, the thoughtfully updated kitchen was remodeled in 2016 and redesigned to open up the back and side walls, creating a more spacious and functional layout. The kitchen features Silestone 2-inch quartz countertops, a Verona 24-inch pro-style gas range, GE fully integrated dishwasher, and a Summit 24-inch counter-depth bottom-freezer refrigerator, all installed in 2016. Custom cordless light-filtering cellular shades provide privacy while allowing natural light to fill the home, and the primary bedroom closets include built-in organizers for added storage and functionality. Additional storage is conveniently located in the public laundry room building (#523), with the unit's storage space located as the last door on the left. The home's courtyard offers a welcoming space where neighbors gather and socialize, reflecting the close-knit community feel Parkfairfax is known for. Residents enjoy a wide range of amenities including three swimming pools, tennis and basketball courts, a volleyball court, EV charging stations, and community events such as outdoor movie nights and end-of-summer doggie swims. Parking within the circle is available for one vehicle per unit. Combining thoughtful updates, beautiful green views, and an unbeatable location, this home offers the very best of Parkfairfax living.
