Fort Hunt

Quiet Homes along the Potomac

Fort Hunt Road as seen from Belle Haven

In many ways, Fort Hunt is quiet and reminiscent of a time past when Virginia was a bit more “southern”. Streets lined with mature hardwoods lead to quiet homes and tranquil neighborhoods. The nearby Potomac River is a perfect neighbor and many parks are in the area.

At the same time, Fort Hunt is close to culture, services and employment. The neighborhood is not only close geographically, but the traffic patterns, established long before the rise of Northern Virginia’s suburbia, favor the area and are relatively free from traffic and congestion. This means that commutes are shorter by miles, but more importantly, much shorter in terms of time spent traveling.

From fast-food and dollar-stores; to warehouse restaurants and big-box stores; to gourmet restaurants and high-end boutiques, you’ll find what you need near Fort Hunt. Fort Hunt is surrounded by urban services, high-rises and major commuter arteries. Mass Transit is well-developed and accessible from all points in the community. The Huntington Metro has 4500 parking spaces and is within walking distance of many local neighborhoods.

In this area renters and buyers can find a cross-section of homes which will suit their needs. Everything is here, from high-rise condo‘s, to brick garden-apartments, to townhouses, to cottages, to single-family houses and large manors.
