Real Estate Agent with Integrity Real Estate Group

Gunston Hall-George Mason's Home in VirginiaIt's easy to drive through the southern end of Fairfax County and the Mason Neck area see why so many owners are proud to call it home. First there is the history. Gunston Hall home of George Mason, Cranford Methodist and Pohick Church founded by famous Virginian's included Mason & George Washingon are all locaed in the Mason Neck area.

Then there is the nature. The 1800 acre Mason Neck State Park is a wildlife refuge known for helping with the repopulation of the bald eagles in Northern Virginia. Throw in Pohick Bay Regional Park with boat launch facilities, golf, camping and water park and you begin to understand why families come to Mason Neck and stay for multiple generations.

Lot for Sale for Custom Home in Mason Neck
Though most of the available open land has already been purchased you can still find lots for sale or in some cases older homes on parcels of land that can be torn down for new construction. For horse owners Mason Neck offers the chance to buy a home zoned to keep your horses on your property. Lot prices vary depending on their location and size on Mason Neck. One important think to consider when you are thinking of a custom home in the area is the soil conditions. Not all lots on Mason Neck will perk for conventional septic systems. So making sure you allow time for an engineering study to determine how many bedrooms your selected lot will perk for is important.

Jane-the first home is the home of George Mason and is now a museum.  There are some incredible homes along the waterfront and it is a peaceful drive only 20 minutes to a major commuter rail station.
