Are you a parent (or parent-to-be) mulling over the idea of purchasing in Fairfax?
While almost all home buyers like the selection of being within walking distance of stores and restaurants, this desire is particularly heightened for families with kids, who quickly realize how burdensome it gets to pack up the car with strollers and bags. So check the surrounding area to see what's within walking distance of—coffee shop? Life in 22031 can be a little easier if you live very close to a playground or park. It'll make a huge difference.
Many parents are alert regarding buying a townhouse on a busy street, lest their kids end up running from a game of tag into traffic. For this reason, the perfect option is a dead-end.
But here's what's ofttimes overlooked: sidewalks. They offer an extra layer of safety, since they provide a buffer between cars and kids at play, and are crucial during the roller-blade or trike phase. A sidewalk is a great place for a walk with the family pet or sidewalk chalk-art.
