Balmoral Community Profile

Balmoral is one of Clifton VA's largest subdivisions. Built on the site of the Ivakota Farm, the land once hosted teens and campers before its current configuration as a luxury community.

Environs

Just off bustling Route 28, drivers enter a quiet, semi rural luxury home area of which Balmoral is a part. The luxury community of detached homes is set among rolling hills amidst a deciduous forest.

Cachet

A Clifton VA address continues with a very high cachet value. Balmoral homes add to the effort as most have a higher degree of exterior architectural design (mostly Colonial and Federal).

Getting Around

Only 25 miles from downtown Washington DC, the Clifton area has a commuter car culture centering on I-66 and the north/south Fairfax Parkway. I-66 is only 5-10 minutes from Balmoral.

Shopping

Located near to Centreville, grocery and other items are easily accessed a few miles away.

The Fairfax Center area northeast from Clifton hosts the Fair Oaks Mall, main street/cinema Fairfax Corner and big box shopping in Fair Lakes. A Whole Foods Market is at East Market.

Clifton and much of Northern Virginia champions numerous Farmer's Markets which are most popular in warm weather months.

Recreation

Westfields Golf Club is a part of Balmoral yet should not be mistaken with the large office park nearby in Chantilly.

The golf course ranks as the top golf course in Fairfax County according to the Washington Business Journal's Book Of Lists.

The Dulles area has emerged as the primary country club culture of metropolitan Washington DC so there are plenty of courses nearby.

Although horse boarding opportunities are not available inside the neighborhood, the surrounding area has stables to let. Also nearby, Braddock Park offers team sport fields.

Semi-Rural Elegance

Home buyers looking for a newer yet established luxury community near commercial districts and Dulles International Airport would do well to place Balmoral on the short list.
