The Location
Thoreau Place is near it all. Restaurants, shops, grocery stores, salons, dry cleaning, banking - you name it.
We are steps away from the South Lakes Village Shopping Center available via a traffic-free walkway with no steps or hills to climb and no traffic to worry about.
Wiehle-Reston Metro Station and District is only one mile away and Reston Town Center is less than 3 miles away.
Thoreau Place is lucky to be located near two of Reston's beautiful lakes, Lake Thoreau and Lake Audubon. Both lakes are easily accessible via the Reston walkway trail that travels behind our property.
Although the metro is within walking distance, the Fairfax Connector Bus line stops on our corner of Sagewood Lane and South Lakes Drive. The metro bus stop is steps away on South Lakes Drive and Sunrise Valley Drive.
