Property Location
About 6001 Terrapin Pl #6001
The Terrapin Place townhouse is a 1996-built, two-bedroom home spanning 1,162 square feet across a traditional multi-level configuration in Alexandria’s Franconia corridor. The layout positions two full baths on the upper level and a half bath on the main floor, a practical arrangement for everyday living. Assigned parking is included with the unit, and the HOA manages exterior maintenance, insurance, lawn care, pool access, snow removal, road maintenance, trash, and water service.
The Franconia area of Alexandria occupies the southern portion of Fairfax County, bordered by the Capital Beltway to the north and positioned along the I-95 and I-395 corridors. The Franconia-Springfield Metro station, served by the Blue Line, provides rail access to the Pentagon, Crystal City, and central Washington. Local retail, grocery options, and everyday services are distributed throughout the surrounding commercial corridors along Franconia Road and nearby arterials.
Ownership in the Terrapin community is structured for buyers who value a low-maintenance experience. The HOA’s coverage of exterior upkeep, lawn maintenance, snow removal, and water eliminates many of the recurring obligations that come with detached-home ownership. Pool access adds a seasonal amenity without the cost or effort of private maintenance. The assigned parking space and proximity to major transit and highway infrastructure make the home practical for commuters oriented toward either Northern Virginia employment centers or downtown Washington.
