Active Listing

Our Frye Road property is a single family, one story home in Fairfax County. It is located off of the Route One Corridor in the Woodlawn neighborhood. The home has recently been renovated, including new stainless steel appliances, new washer and dryer, renovated bathroom, three parking spots, and a spacious backyard patio.

This property will be part of the Virginia State Community Land Trust. The homeowner will own the property, and they will rent the land from the Land Trust, who will own the land. This helps reduce the cost of the home for the homeowner while keeping affordable housing options available in our community.
