Beautifully updated, meticulously maintained, and move-in ready, this one-bedroom, one-bath Parkfairfax condo offers easy everyday living and exceptional outdoor space. Tucked into a peaceful courtyard away from the street and parking lot, it provides a serene retreat with Shirlington’s dining, shops, and entertainment within walking distance. The expansive 308-square-foot garden patio is an outdoor extension of your living space. Renovated in 2023 with pavers and integrated wall lighting, it overlooks a broad, serene lawn framed by mature trees. Picture morning coffee, dinner with friends, or a quiet evening under the lights. Inside, the updated open kitchen connects seamlessly with the living and dining areas. Wood flooring, an updated bathroom, and heated floors in both the kitchen and bathroom add comfort and style. Windows throughout the condo were replaced in 2023, and custom Hunter Douglas window treatments were installed that same year. The entry door, storm door, and patio sliding glass door have also been replaced during the current owner’s time in the home. Additional improvements include a washer and dryer replaced in 2025 and a dishwasher replaced in 2022. A separate storage unit and parking in the parking lot add everyday convenience, while Parkfairfax’s community pools and tennis courts offer more to enjoy close to home. Stroll down Gunston Road and across the pedestrian bridge over I-395 to enjoy all the fun and choices Shirlington offers, from dining and shopping to entertainment. Nearby public transportation and easy access to I-395 make commuting convenient. Welcome Home!
Parkfairfax, located between Shirlington and Del Ray, is a garden-style and mid-century Alexandria neighborhood with wooded courtyards and brick walk-ups. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Parkfairfax Shopping Center at Preston Avenue and Martha Custis Drive, where a low-slung strip of local storefronts meets a steady stream of walkers and cyclists. Signature community pillars include Signature Theatre in nearby Shirlington, the Arlington Cinema & Drafthouse, and the Four Mile Run Farmers & Artisans Market. Curving lanes, mature trees, and pocket greens shape a quiet, pedestrian-first rhythm. The Mount Vernon Trail and Four Mile Run Trail frame daily routes toward the Potomac and Old Town. Nearby Shirlington’s dining blocks add a polished, after-work counterpoint.
