Executive Summary
1261 Wilshire Drive is a three-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath single-family home built in 1973 and situated in Herndon’s established Chandon neighborhood. Priced at $330,000, the home sits on a single-family lot with outdoor space and carries a monthly HOA fee of just $46 — among the lowest in the surrounding submarket. Mature landscaping and a governed neighborhood setting define the streetscape. The location places residents within reach of the Dulles Corridor’s employment centers, retail, and transit options.
Established Herndon Home with a Rare Low-Cost HOA
1261 Wilshire Drive offers a straightforward entry into Herndon homeownership: a three-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath single-family home on a private lot within the Chandon neighborhood. Built in 1973, the home reflects the measured, established character of one of Herndon’s longer-tenured residential communities.
The monthly HOA fee of $46 is notably low for a governed community in Northern Virginia, providing neighborhood standard oversight without the carrying cost burden common to newer HOA developments. For buyers weighing total monthly cost of ownership, that figure is worth attention.
Chandon sits within the broader Herndon submarket, a town that has grown steadily alongside the Dulles Corridor. Access to Route 7, the Dulles Toll Road, and the broader Fairfax County road network makes the location practical for commuters and those who rely on Northern Virginia’s employment centers.
At $330,000, this home represents one of the more accessible price points for detached single-family ownership in Fairfax County, a market where that combination of property type and price is increasingly uncommon.

- Priced at $330,000
