Town of Vienna, Virginia

Freeman House on Church Street, Vienna VA

Freeman House on Church Street is in the National Historic Register

Located 11 miles outside Washington, DC, the Town of Vienna, Virginia is where I have lived for the past 25 years  (time flies).

Here is a brief summary of the community you will find here…

The Town of Vienna has it’s own elected Mayor and Town Council. The Town Manager is responsible for budgets and daily operations. There is a Public Works Department, Police Department, Volunteer Fire Department manned by professional Fairfax County Firefighters, a town hall, town green, annual (75th) Halloween Parade, a 4th of July Fireworks show and much more.

Located within Fairfax County, residents of the Town pay an additional property tax currently (2021) set at $0.2225 per $100 of assessment on top of the $1.14 per $100 of assessment Fairfax County property tax.

The Town of Vienna covers 4.4 square miles, and has a population of approximately 15,000 and has managed to retain its small town feel compared to much of Northern Virginia.

In 2013, Money Magazine ranked Vienna as a top small town to live in!

The Town of Vienna encourages residents to walk, bike, and remain active.

The rebuilt Vienna Community Center is open featuring a new full-size gym addition and community activity rooms.

Vienna also has some excellent restaurants making it a regional foodie destination. Yeah, we like to eat!

Helping my clients add value to their home has always been important to me. My step-by-step recommendations are intended to increase market appeal, return more then invested, and help net more when selling.

Beyond just sellers, I have helped many new homeowners make smart design decisions when remodeling. We gutted our house and totally remodeled it, and I pass that experience along because living in a nice house is simply better.

My background… I’ve been an active licensed agent in Virginia for 25 years, work at TTR Sotheby’s International Realty in McLean, and 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.
