Sterling, VA — Countryside

An Accessible Entry Point in an Established Sterling Community

203 Cottage Rd N sits within the Countryside community of Sterling, Virginia — an established residential neighborhood that has anchored this corner of Loudoun County since the early 1970s. The home is a three-bedroom townhouse built in 1973, offering a traditional multi-level layout with two full baths and one half bath.

Assigned parking is included with the home, and the HOA — at just $85 per month — maintains common areas and community grounds, reducing the maintenance burden on the owner. The combination of low dues and an accessible list price of $177,000 makes this one of the more compelling value propositions currently available in the Northern Virginia townhouse segment.

Sterling’s position along the Route 7 corridor provides straightforward access to employment centers in Loudoun County, Tysons, and beyond. The Countryside neighborhood itself is a mature, tree-lined community with a residential street character that reflects decades of owner investment.

For buyers seeking a foothold in Northern Virginia at a realistic price, this home warrants serious consideration. The Wardman Residential team at Compass is available to provide comparable sales data and advisory support for any buyer evaluating this opportunity.
