[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would stay away from Kingstowne-type master planned communities as it does not sound they would have the charm you are looking for in your description.  What about:

Hollin Hall Village in 22308 (walk to the Hollin Hall shops and eventually the senior center)

Warwick Village in 22305 (walk to DelRay)

Westover in Arlington

Fairlington in 22206 (part of Fairlington is located in Alexandria too, which would be walkable to Bradlee Center, Fairlington Center, and a longer walk to Shirlington)[/quote]

I disagree. Kingstowne is a great community. The HOA manages three community centers all featuring various activities including ones aimed at older residents and the county's Lee Rec center is nearby. There are condos near the lake by Top Golf and behind the main shopping center that are lovely. There are also 2 story homes down a block from Top Golf that would be easier to manage (i.e. less stairs) than a TH.

Kingstowne has its own farmers market, an active residents association, lots of activities around holidays, etc.

Another option is Lorton at the town center.  Less shops than Kingstowne but still a nice assortment of restaurants and definitely nice community amenities.

The options out in western PWC, Loudoun, and western FFX are also nice - just depends if you prefer to be closer to DC or not.
