The Townes of Shirlington Release First Phase of Townhomes

• November 1st 2010

by UrbanTurf Staff

Shirlington has been coined an urban village for years now, and its growing residential and retail sectors seem to be in the news on a monthly, if not weekly, basis. The latest residential project in the area to garner buyer interest is The Townes of Shirlington.

Developed by Elliott Burka and Michael Griffin, the three and four-bedroom townhomes are located on Garfield Street in the neighborhood of Nauck, which for years was home to older residential properties, warehouse-style operations and abandoned buildings. The first four all-brick homes in the project started selling a couple weeks ago, and we understand that open houses have been packed ever since.

Location - 2250 Garfield Street (map). The Townes of Shirlington are located about one minute from the Glebe Road exit off I-395. The driving time to downtown DC is about seven minutes with no traffic. The townhomes are also just about a mile from the shops and restaurants of Shirlington Village.

Living Space - The floorplans of the townhouses range from 1,950 to 2,200 square feet. In addition to nine-foot ceilings, hardwood floors and high-end kitchens, the homes have a variety of energy-efficient features including insulated double-pane windows and front doors and Trane gas furnaces. Also, every home in the Townes is pre-wired for Verizon FIOS.

Price Range - There are three different models available for purchase at the Townes, including three and four bedrooms priced from $449,900 to $499,900.

Parking - Each townhouse comes with two garage parking spaces.
