You Won't Find Point Of Woods In Springfield VA In The MLS

Real Estate Agent with Integrity Real Estate Group

Point of Woods Entrance Sign West Springfield

But I can still show you homes there.


It is sometimes a mystery to what happens to neighborhoods.  Over the years there have been a number of Springfield VA neighborhoods which have merged with others.  In the case of Point of Woods it is part of Cardinal Forest in West Springfield.  There were four original models in the Point of Woods neighborhood and the original neighborhood sign is still evident.

With ¼ acre or larger lots the homes in Cardinal Forest show the care that owners have taken since the neighborhood was originally developed in the 1960's. 

For those in the know Lake Accotink Park has an entrance off of Carrleigh Parkway.  The park features a 3.75 mile trail around the 55 acre lake for you to run, bike, walk or rent a canoe to paddle around the lake.

Cardinal Forest is in the West Springfield HS Pyramid and the elementary school and HS are within walking distance.  Want to shop?  If you want you can walk to the Giant or Whole Foods Grocery Stores and while you are at the shopping center you can stop by Starbucks, Austin Grill or The Burger Joint for bite to eat.  

If you are interested in a home in Cardinal Forest give Cindy Jones and CJ Realty Group a call at 703-346-2213.  Let my knowledge of the Cardinal Forest neighborhood, commuting options to DC and local resources work for you.

Cindy, those old ads are so much fun to look at!  This place is a true mid-century, as is the ad!

oo oo an idea for a post.  We have the opposite issue here.  Our MLS uses dozens of subdivision names that the public doesn't know exist.  Odd how these things happen.  But I so appreciate the idea to post about it.

Pat-I love finding the old ads from the 50's and 60's.  They say a lot about what the developers were thinking as there were building the Springfield area.

We really do  not have sub-divisions especially since most of our neighborhoods have been established for many years. Love the old ad you found. I love those too!

We have subdivision names that are used on the MLS, but there is no way to know where one starts and another begins unless you look on the county maps. The names are totally irrelevant here.

Jackie-we are subdivision heavy here.  It does make it easier to find homes for buyers as they often know which neighborhood they want to live in.
