Hallman Street Fairfax VA

Doug’s working pics are now available ~ see below

Now officially SOLD in July 2013 – FC8101713

Welcome to this remodeled Cape Cod style home that has been tastefully expanded and updated. Located in the heart of the City of Fairfax, it is centrally located to take advantage of in-town living, restaurants like Zoës Kitchen, and easy access to the Vienna Metro Rail Station using the CUE bus. (Yes commuters, leave your car at home)

The upstairs roof line was changed in 2005 to create the two upstairs bedrooms and the full bath. It has a kitchen any chef will enjoy ~ remodeled in 2011.

If you are interested in taking a look at my “working pics”, now you can see them on Google+. There are over 150 photos and many duplicates… and I will be adding more. Yes, when you see a great real estate photo, often it was “the one” of many.

There is an oversize deck for entertaining and an open back yard.

As a follow up to the story about the original owner at the closing over a decade ago, she pulled out her original sales contract on old, yellowed paper from 1950. She and her husband had selected the option to add the walk-out basement, and she had a good laugh when she told us the story of getting a “free dog” with the purchase.

A lot has changed in real estate since 1950!

About Doug Francis

A seasoned Realtor specializing in unique and new homes around Vienna, Virginia, Doug has seen consumer behavior, negotiations and communication styles change. At his original brokerage, he was the first agent to add an email address. Imagine! Outside real estate, he plays tennis, is a Washington Capitals fan, spends time with Skipper (his dog), and enjoys the restaurant scene in the DCA. He's a Boston University graduate who feels morning coffee is non-negotiable.

Vienna real estate agent Doug Francis

When we bought our house in Vienna, we were thinking about raising the kids, building an addition, and knowing the neighbors. Today, home buyers are attracted to Vienna because of the sense of community, walkability, and small town lifestyle.

So, what’s next after your 25 years? It’s a conversation many of my clients are having with me as they plan to move to the beach, travel, or get closer to grandkids. Helping them see their future, sell their current home, and move ahead with their updated plan has been an interesting new chapter.

My background: I am an active licensed agent in Virginia, have negotiated hundreds of sales contracts, work at TTR Sotheby’s International Realty in McLean, and still sell homes in all price ranges. I donate to the Town of Vienna tree replacement fund, participate in a neighborhood citizens association, and try my best to stay in shape.

Let’s discuss your moving plans: Email doug@dougfrancis.com or call me at (703) 304-6827 .  Cheers!
