Schools Are Closed But Kids Will Keep Getting School Meals

Lunch in a Prince William County School
Schools in Fairfax County are out due to summer vacations. But the School systems have announced that they will keep providing free breakfast and lunch to any child under 18 through the summer. The four school divisions, Fairfax, Prince William, Manassas, and Manassas Park, are participating in the USDA Summer Food Service program, sponsored by the Virginia Department of Health. The best part is that in most instances, kids don’t have to attend the school or participate in the free/reduced lunch plans to receive free meals. According to wtop.com, "In Fairfax County, most summer meal programs begin June 17, offering breakfast and lunch at schools and community centers in Alexandria, Falls Church, Reston, Herndon, Annandale, and Vienna."

Total garage space is approximately 27 x 23 (not included in square footage of home) and attached to home via covered walkway. So nice. Chefs Kitchen features six burner Wolf stove and new Thermador refrigerator. Separate icemaker appliance and sink in the island for entertaining. Custom stonework fireplace in kitchen/family room. Lots of windows and door to extra large deck for grilling/sunning/entertaining or just overlooking your gorgeous yard. The deck is beautiful low maintenance IPE, also known as Brazilian Walnut.

Except for the lower level the entire house is powered by this system. Radiant floor heating is a low maintenance, energy efficient heating system that involves installing a network of water tubes beneath your floor surface (encased in a layer of cement between floors in this house. Unlike traditional forced air heating systems that rely on vents and ducts, radiant floor heating directly warms the floor itself, which then radiates gentle heat upwards, evenly distributing warmth throughout the entire space. Radiant floor heat doesn’t push dust or allergens throughout the room. radiant floor heat is silent and will not produce any noise when the system is running, and no hot spots or cold spots, just gentle warming. The system is supplemented with an Aprilaire whole house steam humidifier located in the media/family room producing a wonderful warm atmosphere during the winter months. Two zones on each of the top two floors, and three on main level. Cooling system is a Unico high velocity Heat Pump system that is very efficient at taking out the humidity in the air in summer. Serenity, space, privacy, comfort and beauty are the hallmarks of this truly remarkable home. Call with any questions. [Franklin Park - $2,950,000]
