Four Seasons at Historic Virginia

Four Seasons at Historic Virginia sits on 465 acres of rolling hillsides and mature woods in Dumfries, Virginia, and has about 801 single-family homes with over 1,400 residents, all age 55 and older, which gives it a small-town feel while being about a mile from I-95 and 30 miles south of Washington, DC, so you'll see folks out walking the scenic nature trails, enjoying the ponds and landscaped grounds, or gathering at the 21,000-square-foot clubhouse that stays open all year with a state-of-the-art fitness center, indoor and outdoor pools, locker rooms, a ballroom, library, business area, spa, lounges with fireplaces, and big screen TVs. Residents join a variety of social and interest groups, enjoy scheduled activities every day like cards, fitness classes, movies, lectures, concerts, social dancing, and even informal grill-outs on the large patio by the barbecue grills, and there's bocce ball, tennis and pickleball courts with lights and portable nets, a putting green, driving range, horseshoe pits, and both indoor and outdoor pools. Folks who live here have access to meal plans with all-day dining in a dining room, restaurant-style meals that include allergy-sensitive and diabetes-friendly options, plus cafes, ice cream shops, and bakeries with choices like coffeehouses, bubble tea, tea rooms, and all sorts of cuisine from Asian and Southern to pizza and buffet. The homes here come in one, two, or three levels, always with two-car garages and main level owner's suites, and the whole place is managed by Four Seasons at Historic Virginia Community Association, Inc., with a Board of Directors elected by residents and supported by several committees handling things like communications, landscaping, and security. Association dues cover a long list of services-indoor and outdoor facility use, on-site management, snow removal, waste pickup, recycling, beautification, a security gate, and maintenance, and the community runs on a transparent, fiscally responsible plan, even keeping well-funded improvement and replacement reserves. There's community services like housekeeping, laundry, family support, concierge help, move-in coordination, and transportation, and care types range from independent living to assisted living, memory care for those at risk for wandering or confusion, and skilled nursing, with wellness activities and health services close by, like Century Surgical Service and local doctors' offices. Pets are allowed, though folks can't have fences, and people can walk to nearby shopping, restaurants, parks, historical sites, entertainment, and even commuter lots. With organized travel, education seminars, and events through an active community calendar, Four Seasons at Historic Virginia stands as a welcoming and busy place where residents make friends and stay active every day.
