Active adult community north of Gainesville

Heritage Hunt is an active adult community in Prince William County, featuring the Heritage Hunt Golf & Country Club, and bordered by Conway Robinson State Forest for a hike through dense foliage. The neighborhood was developed in 1997 and caters to folks 55 and older. "Some parts are gated, [and] there are single-family homes and attached townhouses and condos with elevator access," says Guillermo Salmon, a real estate agent with Samson Properties.

Main level homes and townhouse options in a gated community

Home values in Heritage Hunt range from $400,000 to around $1 million, depending on square footage. Heritage Hunt Golf & Country Club is the gated community in the southern half of the neighborhood. Beyond the guard gates are uniform streets with consistent sidewalks and lots of shade trees. Homes are primarily townhouses or Craftsman-inspired ramblers from the early 2000s. "The appeal of Heritage Hunt is main-level living," says David Levent, a real estate agent with Long & Foster Real Estate, Inc. "While you may have a home that's more than one level, your primary suite will be on the main level. People are just tired of climbing up and down steps to get to their bedrooms." Single-level detached homes in the community start around the high $400,000s, while multi-level homes can pass $800,000. The country club also features single-level condominium buildings, with two-bedroom units starting in the high $300,000s. Buyers might find a similarly priced townhouse-style condo outside the gates in the Heathcote Commons subdivision, while larger townhouses can reach the $600,000s. There's also the Marque Apartments for rental options in the southeast corner of the neighborhood, and more modern townhouses in the Crossroads Village subdivision.

Heritage Hunt Golf & Country Club has a championship course

Heritage Hunt Golf & Country Club members can access several outdoor and recreational amenities. The main feature is the club's 18-hole championship golf course, which snakes through residential blocks. It's one of over 200 courses designed by the legendary architect Arthur Hills. The clubhouse features tennis, pickleball and bocce courts and a pool. To the east, Conway Robinson State Forest stretches over 400 acres of Virginia parklands, featuring over 5 miles of wooded trails for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding. History buffs can drive a few miles to Manassas National Battlefield Park, where one of the Civil War's first clashes was fought. Residents can hike or take guided tours that detail the skirmishes fought on these grounds.

Heritage Village Plaza has retail without leaving the neighborhood

Heritage Village Plaza is the local business center and lies at the south end of Heritage Hunt. The shops here are within walking distance of some of the townhouse residents. There's a Harris Teeter for groceries beside a Dunkin' Donuts and two fast-casual Korean fried chicken spots, CM Chicken and bb.q Chicken. Locals can also dine at La Finca, a Mexican restaurant and bar, or grab a burger from Jimbo's Grill. The Plaza also features several pharmacies and medical clinics specializing in dentistry, podiatry and nephrology. Less than a mile south of the neighborhood is Virginia Gateway, a larger mall in Gainesville with popular retailers like Target and Lowe's.

There is always stuff happening," says Salmon. Heritage Hunt Golf & Country Club has private venues that are popular to rent out for weddings or work parties. La Finca hosts bingo and trivia nights every week, where winners can get a $25 gift card for their next visit to the restaurant.

Nova Manassas Campus is a quick commute

As this is an active-adult community, there aren't public schools zoned for the area. Residents seeking postsecondary education can attend the Manassas campus of Northern Virginia Community College, just 6 miles east of Heritage Hunt. The college, nicknamed "Nova," offers two-year associate degrees and some courses available to aid students aged 50 and up.

I-66 and Lee Highway are the main roads in and out of town

Interstate 66 and U.S. Route 29, also called Lee Highway, conveniently intersect south of Heritage Hunt. I-66 leads to Tysons Corner Center, the largest mall in the D.C. – Baltimore area, in 26 miles, roughly a half-hour drive. Washington Dulles International Airport is 20 miles north, a 45-minute drive depending on traffic. There's also an OmniRide bus that passes through Heathcote Boulevard for public transit options.
