Welcome to this rarely available Sherwood model in the beloved Fairlington Villages! This top-floor condo offers 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, a spacious loft, and its own private balcony backing to green space. It's truly an inviting retreat in one of Northern Virginia’s most sought after communities. Inside, you’ll find an airy layout with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and an updated kitchen featuring granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. The spiral staircase leads to the versatile loft with generous storage, perfect for a home office, guest space, or cozy lounge. Recent updates include a new hot water heater (2023), fresh carpet in the bedrooms (hardwoods underneath) and loft, and stylish new light fixtures. All windows were replaced in 2010, HVAC in 2016, and washer and dryer are conveniently in the unit. Plus, the hallways are being completely updated and renovated in 2026! (See design in photos) Fairlington Villages residents enjoy an incredible lifestyle with pools, tennis courts (including pickleball), beautiful green spaces, playgrounds, and endless walking/biking trails.
