About This Home

As of October 2021

Welcome to 3014 South Buchanan Street! A recent refresher of the exterior doors, shutters, stoops, and handrails boosts the curb appeal of this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom, 3-level Clarendon model townhome. Inside, you will find cozy living space with hardwood floors and personal touches. Updated ceilings and recessed, dimmable lighting on the main and lower levels provide a bright and airy feel, while vinyl plank flooring and exceptionally high ceilings on the lower level add to the cleanliness and appeal of the home. Two bedrooms upstairs and a den with a full bathroom in the lower level offer plenty of options for visitors. Set up your outdoor oasis and enjoy quiet or lively evenings on the fenced patio, complete with custom deck tiles!

This townhome is ideally situated in the heart of Fairlington Villages. Located just a block from the North Fairlington Community Center and Abingdon Elementary School, this property is very close to tennis courts, a newly updated tot lot with party pavilion, two school playgrounds, an athletic track with playing fields, and all organized neighborhood activities. In the warmer weather, choose between three nearby pools – with one right across the street – and revel in plentiful green space, all beautifully maintained by the condo association! Two residential parking permits support an abundance of on- and off-street parking, while public buses run regularly through the area. Enjoy easy access to the many shops, restaurants, gyms, and a public library in The Village at Shirlington, as well as numerous Arlington parks, playgrounds, nature centers, bike trails, and walking paths.

Additional features:
Nest thermostat; Wired for Verizon FIOS; Adjacent off-street parking lot; New patio fence to be installed by condo association, coming soon; New roof, 2017; New water heater, 2016; Kitchen upgrades, 2015/16; New HVAC, 2014


The idyllic Fairlington community was built for defense workers after WWII, on 340 acres of land. Located just 5 miles from Washington, DC, Fairlington is known for its tree-lined streets and rows of red brick townhomes and condos with slate roofs, all surrounded by lush green space. Fairlington is listed in the Virginia Landmarks Register as well as the National Register of Historic Places. Proximity to I-395, Metro, and Reagan Airport place this hidden gem in an incredibly desirable area of Northern Virginia. The Village at Shirlington, Bradlee Shopping Center, the new West Alex Shops, and historic Old Town Alexandria round out accessibility to local shopping and restaurants.
