Description of the home we are offering for exchange
A lovely home on a lovely street in the greater Washington DC area. We are within walking distance of George Mason University's Patriot Center and Center for the Arts with their many sports and entertainment attractions. We are 1.5 miles from the Virginia Railway and Amtrak station at Burke Centre, VA (daily service to Alexandria, DC and Charlottesville, VA). Two metro stations (Vienna on the Orange line and Franconia-Springfield on the Blue line) are short 20 minute drives away. See DC's museums and monuments, Revolutionary and Civil War history, America's oldest wine region and the Shenandoah National Park all on day trips. See the Smithsonian's Udvar Hazy Air and Space Museum and the Space Shuttle Discovery. Follow walking and biking trails through the woods to nearby lakes and parks that are all part of Fairfax County's network of outdoor amenities. In summer, walk to our local farmer's market. Our green home is an environmentally-friendly vacation base awaiting your stay!
