Listing details

Welcome to 506 Dakota Dr — a thoughtfully updated and well-maintained 3-level home offering 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths plus finished basement, in the sought-after Waterford community in vibrant Herndon. Set on a quiet street, the home offers a private feel while still being within walking distance to Old Town Herndon. Restaurants, cafés, grocery stores, and the farmers market are all close by, making it easy to enjoy the area without needing to drive everywhere. Inside, the home has been fully remodeled with a clean, modern feel. Gleaming hardwood floors run throughout the main level and continue into the upstairs bedrooms, while natural light fills the home, creating a bright and comfortable layout. The kitchen and bathrooms have been recently updated, and the flexible floor plan across three levels allows for a potential fourth bedroom, office, or additional living space. The spacious primary suite features vaulted ceilings and a sun-filled atmosphere, creating a relaxing retreat. The outdoor setup is just as practical, with a rear deck and a covered patio that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways throughout the year. The home also includes a one-car garage and private driveway parking, adding everyday convenience. Major updates include a new roof (2021), solar panels (2022), updated HVAC system (2017/2018), fully redone plumbing (2016), UV-filtered windows, and more. The location truly stands out, putting you just minutes from top destinations like Reston Town Center, Lake Anne Plaza, Dulles Town Center, One Loudoun, and Herndon Centennial Golf Course. Commuting is easy with quick access to Washington Dulles International Airport, the Washington Metro Silver Line (Herndon Station), the Dulles Toll Road, and Interstate 495. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate nearby access to the Washington & Old Dominion Railroad Regional Park. Everyday essentials are just as convenient, with Wegmans, Whole Foods Market, and Trader Joe's all just a short drive away. With its prime location, extensive updates, and bright, inviting feel, this home offers a great blend of modern living, convenience, and neighborhood charm.
