… look at the interior photos! This home is not asking a 3rd party for approval! Not a foreclosure either… super clean and ready to settle by the end of the year!

Mint condition town home located close to Fair Oaks, Fairfax, and some of the best shopping on the East Coast including Wegman’s, Whole Foods, REI, Costco, Target and the Merrifield Garden Center. Walk to an almost new Fairfax County Elementary School (Eagle View), Fairfax County parks and walking trails and so much more.

All ready to close quickly. But we need to set up a time to see it this weekend… 703-304-6827.

Equal Housing Opportunity!

I took a sip of coffee. “Dominion Way, don’t I have clients on that street?”, I thought.

“Right, I should call Scott and Jeannie to see if they saw it.”

So I hopped in my car and drove over to see which house it was. It was theirs!

Since then, I have reminded clients during National Fire Protection Week to check their smoke detectors, replace old smoke detectors with new ones that include hall lights, replace 9-volt batteries, make an escape plan, and be careful when grilling or using candles.

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) supports all of those programs that your children learn in school or read about during those fire station open-houses… there is probably one in your community this weekend and you should stop by and get some fire safety tips or suggestions. Click on “Sparky” to see all of their material.

As it turned out, Scott and Jeannie were sound asleep at 2:30 in the morning when Jeannie smelled smoke. She sent Scott to peek out the window and he saw flames leaping up the side of their neighbor’s town home. They hopped out of bed and ran out of the house safely. I can clearly remember asking her about the experience and she did not remember hearing her smoke detectors going off.

Please do me a favor, check those smoke detector batteries, press the test button, and consider replacing any smoke detector that is over seven years old.

The Vienna Volunteer Fire Department open-house is October 10th from 10-4.
