It has been an incredibly busy first Quarter of the year 2015 for Key Home Sales & Management, and for myself personally. My family decided to sell our long-time home in
Kingstowne (Alexandria) Virginia, and move to
Clifton VA where we have more room for my husband's hobbies (cars...) and for mine as well (being outside, gardening, working around the farm). We may even get horses!
I just put our
home in Kingstowne on the market today - we did everything we could think of to make it just like a new home - new windows, new roof, new carpet, fresh paint, refinished the hardwoods, new A/C, and even put in a new Kitchen! People often say "why don't you do these things while you're still living there to enjoy it?" Easier said than done while all your furniture and belongings are still in the home!
If you know of anyone thinking of buying in the Kingstowne area, please give them our phone number. And if you also live in Kingstowne and want to go see the home and check out what we did, we'll have an Open House this Sunday, April 19th.
For those of you who don't know already, Kingstowne is an amazing community in the Alexandria section of Fairfax County. Built in the 1990s to early 2000's, it consists of over 5300 homes, including single family, townhouses, and condos. It has two outdoor pools, two well-stocked fitness centers, a lake, tennis, volleyball, soccer, basketball, bike and walking trails, and many more amenities! Lots of community activities year round, and convenient to Ft. Belvoir, the Pentagon and Downtown via bus/metro. There are two metro stops in the area: Springfield and Van Dorn.
Our
company manages several homes in the Kingstowne area, and we sell homes (and help people buy homes) there all the time. The community has a reputation for being a convenient commute, a family friendly area, and for keeping home values up by proper oversight of the homeowners association.
Clifton is also an amazing area - it's a secluded section of Fairfax County that features larger, more rural lots (most are 5 acres or more) and one of the last places in Fairfax County where you can still find horses and even cows! In fact, there's a large cattle farm just across from our land. We've enjoyed watching a family of 5 baby fox kits running around in our back lot. Everyone at Key Home Sales & Management is waiting for our pool to open and our first office party at my new home!
