Welcome to Cardinal Forest! This wonderfully maintained, light-filled, two bedroom condo offers comfortable living in a desirable Springfield community. The inviting interior features ceramic tile flooring in the main hallway and kitchen, a cozy dining nook next to a window, and granite countertops complemented by ample cabinetry for a functional, well-organized cooking space. The kitchen opens up to the living room, creating a welcoming flow for everyday living. Glass sliding doors lead to a private, fenced patio which is an ideal spot for morning coffee, container gardening, or relaxing outdoors. Upstairs, two well-proportioned bedrooms offer generous closet space, while a full bathroom and conveniently enclosed laundry area complete the upper level. Enjoy the Cardinal Forest Community with access to nearby parks, nature trails, swimming pools, shopping, and dining. Close to Lake Accotink Park with miles of walking and biking trails. Easy commuting with quick access to I-95, I-395, I-495, Fairfax County Parkway. The Franconia–Springfield Metro and VRE station are also nearby, and a direct bus route to Pentagon gives additional options for commuting into parts of DC. A wonderful opportunity to be a part of this condo community awaits you!
Homewood, located between Rolling Road and Old Keene Mill Road, is a residential and commuter-friendly West Springfield neighborhood with wooded streets and mid-century split-levels. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Old Keene Mill Road and Rolling Road crossroads, where local storefronts, coffee counters, and everyday errands cluster in a steady rhythm. Nearby, the Workhouse Arts Center, Hidden Pond Nature Center, and the Audrey Moore RECenter act as cultural and recreational pillars with year-round programming. Sidewalk-light blocks and mature trees shape a calm streetscape, while pocket parks and trail links add outdoor texture. Housing reads as brick colonials and ramblers with generous yards and long driveways. Daily life often orbits around parks, studios, and community recreation rather than nightlife.
