A spacious and safe neighborhood known for its performing arts venue
Just 3 miles northwest of Tysons Corner, Wolf Trap, although known for its performing arts venue, should be known for much more. From 1960s ranches and split-level homes to massive new-traditional and modern estates, its real estate scene has something for almost every buyer. Families thrive here as this safe neighborhood boasts schools in the highly regarded Fairfax County Public Schools and a laundry list of impressive parks. But one can’t talk about Wolf Trap without talking about its National Park for the Performing Arts. When the days grow longer and the sun shines brighter, this rural hideaway comes to life with song, dance and summer fun. Crowds draw from all over the Capital Beltway to catch shows here. The park includes two main venues: the Filene Center and The Barns. The Filene Center is the park’s flagship attraction. The theater stands tall and holds just over 7,000 occupants. The Barns are an assemblage of 18th-century sheds that have been refurbished and refined with all the amenities necessary to produce the proper show. Residents gather here to experience local and national acts.
