The links in these reports generally EXPIRE in 30 days from the date of this post and become non functioning. Check in monthly for current data. OR just drop us an email and we will send you the current sales figures or set you up on an auto search so that you will ALWAYS have current data. You can set up you own search at Jan and Steve's Listing Book.
As you can see from the photos, the community is well landscaped, shaded by mature trees and the streets are laid out in an aesthetic manor.
Diane: What home styles can I find in Spring Lake Estates?
Steve: The community is dominated by the most popular floor plan in Fairfax County for the 20 years the colonial. You will also find many nice additions and variations on the main colonial theme.
Ted: What schools serve Spring Lake Estates?
Steve: Spring Lake Estates is served by the following schools, with links embedded:
Floris Elementary
Rachel Carson Middle
Westfield High School
Always double check the Fairfax County School Locater website by entering in the address of any home you plan to purchase. School boundaries change and 3rd party on line school info is not always up to date or accurate. A follow up email or phone call to the school would also be advisable.
Fred: Is there any shopping close by?
Steve: There are more options for shopping, entertainment and dining near Spring Lake Estates than you can shake a stick at.
Franklin Farm Shopping Center, McLearen Center, all the shopping off Centreville road coming out of Herndon is just minutes away.
Reston Town Center is just up the road a couple miles so all the shopping and dining establishments there are easily the disposal of Spring Lake Estates residents.
Also, Kidwell Farm at Frying Pan Park is just a mile away! Great outing for the kids or you.
Diane: Spring Lake Estates sounds good and looks great from these photos.
What philosophical advice would you give us regarding our Herndon house hunting adventure in Spring Lake and other neighborhoods?
Steve: Check out the totality of the choices before you, analyze your needs and wants, separate the two, visit as many properties as you need to until you can connect with just the right home for you. It will be almost a spiritual sensation....a 1970’s terminology…you should feel the right “vibe”.
The right real estate agent will understand this and enjoy the hunt as much as you will…do not work with anyone with whom YOU don't also have that “vibe”..... there is no point in that. 
....And try to be at peace about the whole process.
Diane: Would you and your wife be interested in helping us find just the right home?
Steve: Happy to help with no hassle and no pressure Diane. Just drop us a line and we can chat about your requirements.

Sam: I may want to sell my house in Spring Lake Estates in the months ahead. It is an awesome, cozy community, but it looks like I will be relocating soon.
I was wondering if you could post a monthly report that will show homes that have sold here the last 18 months so I can see the price trend in the neighborhood?
Also, before you do that could you post a link to show me what homes are currently for sale in Spring Lake Estates as well as those that are under contract?

Steve: Happy to do so Sam. There are currently no properties for sale in Spring Lake or under contract as of July 13.
It is a small community as you know and properties have moved fast now that the market has improved.
