Finchwood: Private Yard & Near DC

The Space

Your townhome greets you with the added privacy of a fully fenced yard.

Enter into the spacious living room with plenty of comfy seating for the whole group. Stretch out as you turn on the big screen TV to watch your favorite TV show, the latest blockbuster movie, or that long-awaited sporting event.

The beautifully remodeled kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, granite counters, abundant storage in the hardwood cabinets and recessed lighting. It provides the ideal atmosphere for culinary creation and is sure to become the family chef's favorite room!

Savor your chef-inspired meals at either the dining table for 6 adjacent to the kitchen or bring it outside to your fully privacy-fenced rear yard for an alfresco meal. Either way, there's plenty of room for the whole family or group to reconnect.

Enjoy a peaceful nights' sleep in one of the three upstairs bedrooms. The master suite offers a comfortable king-size bed, with dual nightstands, perfect for your book or mobile device. The recessed lights cast a soft glow over the room. You've found both the perfect respite during a busy day and the ideal spot to enjoy a few moments alone, either the silence or a favorite show.

This welcoming property provides a perfect home base for your travels in Northern Virginia. We look forward to welcoming you to our 3 bedroom home. It`s our best top unit for a larger group or family gathering and those looking for a versatile space for remote working.

Neighborhood Overview

IMPORTANT: This home is strictly for quiet groups, not suitable for family loud family gatherings or group celebrations; families with very active children must not book since our walls are thin and are neighbors are very sensitive to noise.

CountrySide in Sterling VA is a quiet, tree-lined and family-oriented community. A sampling of the exceptional amenities here include 3 pools, 5 tennis courts, 10 tot lots, 2 basketball courts, a catch and release pond, and nearly 10 miles of walking trails. Our very favorite thing, though, is also its best kept secret - HorsePen Run Wetland Nature Preserve. This 370 acres of protected land is for CountrySide residents' and guests` enjoyment. Located roughly behind some of the nearby schools, the preserve is a true nature sanctuary, with 12 different trails of varying lengths.

Outside of CountrySide, you`ll find all the amenities and attractions necessary for a great trip, like grocery stores, movie theaters, shopping, and dining. And of course, DC is just minutes away.

- We have some ware and tear stains on the carpet of the home.
- CountrySide is a family-oriented community that prizes courtesy and quiet. For this reason, we can only invite family groups to any of our CountrySide properties.

In order to be fair and impartial with this noise policy, we have installed NoiseAware in all of our CountrySide properties. This technology is similar to a smoke alarm, but instead detects noise over a pre-set decibel.

Maintenance issues
Property is in nice location but it's not what is shown in pictures, as it is staged. Both sofas in living room have stains and are dirty. You can't sit on them. I had maintenance issues during my stay as 2 showers out of 3 were not working. I contacted Newman and never I got to speak with an individual. You had to leave voice message and an employee will communicate via text message when available. It took 3 days just to put a new shower head in one bathroom and the handyman didn't fix the other one stating that he needs to change the whole shower system by opening the wall. Then 2 days prior to my departure the water starts to leak from ceiling in the kitchen area. You could tell there were plumbing issues in that spot previously also as the sheetrock openings in ceiling had coverings.

Lovely Property with great amenities
Overall great rental property. I What I loved most about the property was the management company. They provided excellent service. My reasons for renting was a place to reside for a few days before moving abroad. Basically, we needed a place crash as we wrapped up last minute details before our we left the VA area. The property is nice and my reasons for only 4 stars was because the living room and dining room furniture were quite uncomfortable. The dining room seemed to be an outdoor picnic table with outdoor chairs. The chairs were a bit low for the table and quite uncomfortable. So we could not linger and enjoy our meals. The living room had two stiff loveseats. So it was quite uncomfortable to try and enjoy the tv and relax. Also, the master bedroom had two large skylights over the bed which meant my days started at sunrise as it was difficult to sleep with all the light in the room. Luckily it was just two of us so I found myself sleeping in the extra guest bedroom which was much darker and conducive for sleep. Finally the master bedroom closets faced the bed and had mirrors on the door. I did not enjoy this feature as it is very much goes against Feng Shui principles. It creates disharmony in the room. However, the property was clean, the kitchen had all the supplies that we needed. We loved having the electric kettle, toaster, microwave and the ample fridge. It had plenty of glasses, plates, cookware, etc. We also appreciated all the extra clean towels, extra clean sheets, and all 3 beds were super comfortable with nice bedding. The house had plenty of tvs although we did not need them all and they had access to things like Netflix which we enjoyed. We used the available wifi the most so we could use our various devices. Finally, we appreciated all the small touches like having coffee/tea supplies, dishwashing detergent, trash bags, paper products, etc. in the kitchen. We also appreciated the shampoos/conditioners, soap, toothbrush/toothpaste supplies in the bathrooms. The neighborhood was quiet and we loved that.

Perfect place near DC
We appreciated the well equipped kitchen and the stocked linen closet. The laundry baskets and the abundant hangers in the closets were so helpful. The host was quick to respond to my questions.
