Reston has been an up and coming city in Fairfax county over the last few years. The growth it has experienced has given buyers plenty of room to decided what kind of home best meets their need. Whether you want a neighborhood or city experience. Reston has definitely got whatever you need. It has tried to meet he needs of their community by adding several shopping centers and has quickly become one of the premier places to shop, dine, and socialize amongst Northern Virginians.
Reston Town Center is located in the hear of city and quite frankly you can drive for several blocks and find something to interest you or your family. Right around the block from Reston Town Center is another shopping center that offers access to stores like Best Buy, Lane Bryant, Barne's & Nobles, and Men's Warehouse. There are grocery stores integrated in these shopping centers as well like Harris Teeter. What's nice is that all of this action is surrounded by quiet neighborhoods of condos, townhomes, or single family homes.
Commuters will also be pleased by the ability to get to the metro quickly when trying to beat the morning rush. Reston straddles the Dulles Toll Road so you never have to worry about getting in and out of the city. In all honesty, I could go on and on about all that Reston has to offer. It is one of those places you have to see and experience to understand. Reston has a lot opportunity for a lot of buyers, it just depends on what your're looking for.
Rippon Landing is a subdivision located in Woodbridge, Virginia, in Prince William County. The townhouses look about mid-sized, they're not very large, but great for a starter home. They don't look super appealing from the outside, mainly because of the age of them I'd say. The neighborhood seems to be pretty well taken care of though. There are very wide streets, which is nice so you can park on the side of the streets without having to worry too much about your car. There is a large playground in the center of the neighborhood, it has swings, slides, a basketball court, a jungle gym, etc., which makes Rippon Landing a nice place to live if you have any children. Its also located right off of route 1, and has very close access to I-95, making it very conveinent for any commuters out there. Overall, the community seemed quiet, and very pleasant.
