Huntley Meadows is a community of 86 fee-simple townhomes in the Groveton area of Fairfax County. The neighborhood occupies approximately 13 acres along Huntley Meadows Lane and Ransom Place, near Historic Huntley and Huntley Meadows Park.
Homes use Alexandria mailing addresses but are located outside the independent City of Alexandria. Huntley Meadows should not be confused with the much larger Grove at Huntley Meadows community or nearby apartment developments using similar names.
The Huntley Meadows townhomes were primarily constructed around 1993. Most residences have three levels and traditional Colonial-inspired exteriors, with brick, siding, or a combination of exterior materials.
Floor plans generally include two to four bedrooms and approximately three or more bathrooms, depending on the model and lower-level configuration. Interior and end-unit homes are available throughout the community.
Common property features may include:
Finished living space can differ significantly because some owners have remodeled lower levels, added bathrooms, or redesigned interior rooms. Buyers should compare tax records, listing measurements, and permit information when evaluating square footage.
The Huntley Meadows Homeowners Association governs the 86 townhomes on Huntley Meadows Lane and Ransom Place. Recent property records indicate that the association fee may cover services such as common-area maintenance, management, trash collection, snow removal, and certain parking-related expenses.
Community rules may regulate assigned parking, guest spaces, exterior modifications, fencing, landscaping, pets, and rentals. Buyers should review the current resale certificate, budget, reserve information, insurance documents, meeting minutes, and any pending assessments before completing a purchase.
HOA fees and covered services can change. Information from a previous property listing should not replace the current association documents.
Huntley Meadows Park is a major Fairfax County natural area known for forests, meadows, wetlands, and wildlife observation. The park’s raised boardwalk crosses the wetland and leads to an observation tower. A visitor center provides exhibits, educational programs, classrooms, and information about the park.
The park operates as a protected wildlife sanctuary, and certain trails have restrictions intended to preserve sensitive habitat. The townhome community’s name and wooded setting reflect its proximity to the park, but the neighborhood’s common areas are separate from Fairfax County parkland.
Historic Huntley is a restored 19th-century property located near the community. The villa was built around 1825 for Thomson Francis Mason, a grandson of George Mason. It is managed by the Fairfax County Park Authority and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The Huntley Meadows townhomes are positioned near this historic site, but owners should not assume that neighborhood property extends onto the historic grounds or surrounding county parkland.
Huntley Meadows is near Groveton Street, Harrison Lane, Lockheed Boulevard, South Kings Highway, and Richmond Highway. These roads provide access to Huntington, Old Town Alexandria, the Capital Beltway, Fort Belvoir, National Landing, and Washington, D.C.
Huntington Metro Station offers Yellow Line service and can be reached by car or bus. Fairfax Connector and other regional bus routes serve the broader Richmond Highway corridor. Buyers with a regular commute should test their route during normal weekday traffic conditions.
Shopping, grocery stores, restaurants, medical offices, and everyday services are available along Richmond Highway. Beacon Center, Mount Vernon Plaza, and other nearby shopping areas provide additional retail and dining options.
Residents can also reach Old Town Alexandria, the Mount Vernon area, National Harbor, and Springfield for additional shopping, entertainment, and recreational opportunities.
Huntley Meadows is served by Fairfax County Public Schools. Recent property listings identify Groveton Elementary School, Carl Sandburg Middle School, and West Potomac High School as the assigned schools.
Attendance boundaries can change. Buyers should confirm the current school assignment for a specific property directly with Fairfax County Public Schools.
Buyers should inspect the roof, windows, siding, deck, heating and cooling equipment, plumbing, electrical system, and finished lower level. Homes backing to wooded areas may require additional attention to drainage, grading, tree conditions, and moisture management.
The HOA documents should be reviewed for parking assignments, guest-parking procedures, exterior-maintenance responsibilities, reserve funding, rental restrictions, and planned community projects.
Sellers should highlight updated systems, renovated kitchens and bathrooms, finished lower levels, outdoor space, end-unit positioning, assigned parking, and wooded views where applicable.
Obtaining the HOA resale package early can help prevent delays. Sellers should also clarify that Huntley Meadows is a distinct 86-home townhome community rather than the Grove at Huntley Meadows.
