Halstead Fair Oaks

Reviews

Zoe H.

Just moved here in August with the consistent help of Angel, who is one of many employees who have been beyond friendly and helpful. The apartment is incredibly comfortable. Right around the corner from loads of stores and places to eat, as well as b...

I've been here since 2018, and I am loving everything about my appointment and this community. I have been offered with many deals to live in another place, but I couldn't do it. I am not an American citizen but this apartment feels like HOME.

Andrea T.

Living here has been great! Love living here because it’s so center all to everything. Me and my husband started living not to long ago after we got married.

Maeve M.

Nice community. Would like stairs to be redone for the safety of community. A neighbor already fell on one of them when the concrete collapsed.

William Oswaldo M.

It is a very quiet place to live with a good atmosphere and children also like it because it has a pool and there is a small park for them to play and more.

Halie S.

Really love Halstead! Such an interactive community with fun activities and responsive leasing office. Very quiet neighborhood and no problems so far!

Leslie C.

Thank you for the amazing staff - great area close to shopping mall and shopping centers. Opportunity to walk around neighborhood- close to several parks and wineries. Good amenities- fairly maintained community

Tiffany S.

Neighborhood is good. Apartment needs a little more work, but for now I'm satisfied with my decision to live here. The amenities a very good. Gym is clean. The iron on the stairs are very rusty. It feels like it may give away any day.

Adriana M.

Very good! Staff is nice and we always had quick answers from leasing office and maintenance. There are multiple amenities and the community is very well taken care of.

Michael N.

As we've told all of our friends, this place is much nicer than our previous apartment, and for less cost. We especially enjoy walking our dogs around the pond and the outdoor grilling area.

Georgia W.

So far I have found my experience to be very friendly and fresh. Everyone is so nice and welcoming and I am looking forward to making this place a nice home.

Kerry B.

Overall, living here has been pleasant. I would have given 5 stars but the exterior hall walls between the apartments are quite dirty as well as the floor. They just need to be power washed.

April C.

Nice and quiet. Friendly people. Great move-in experience with great details like welcome card and gifts, like soaps, paper towels. Water bottle. The apartment was so clean I thought no one lived there before.

Kyrra G.

When I first moved in, it was a really beautiful community. Lately I've seen lots of trash around in the public areas, and the children running and yelling in the common amenity spaces make it difficult to sleep-especially if you're a shift worker. G...

Jacob H.

A little pricy but overall a decent value for the money. It's very close to multiple different grocery stores and the Fair Oaks Mall. Also great access to the city of Fairfax...there are multiple different ways to get almost anywhere you need to go.

Stefanie M.

Maintenance is pretty good, great pest control, decent price for comps. I like the changes that Bozzuto has been making so far - ie food trucks, improvements, etc.

Felice J.

For a first apartment and living alone, this has been the best place to call home. Its more than I ever expected, from the food trucks to the events; I will probably grow old here!

Kanthimathy C.

It’s a wonderful community and great place to live. I’ve been a resident here for more than 11 years now. Buzzuto is the best service management yet.wonderful, but need some play area for kids in this community. There are no public playground are...

Chase M.

It’s been perfect. I love the perks! Especially the food trucks. Every week either one or two food trucks come in and we also have community events about once a week also.

Marissa B.

So far it’s been great. Move in was seamless. We have lived here for about 7 months and no problems to report. Any maintenance requests have been handled quickly and they do a great job about calling me before they come over. The community is super...

Lauren F.

Overall, a good experience living here. We love the new outdoor space at Halstead! I appreciate how clean they keep the common spaces outdoors.

Scott M.

So far so good. Only been here a couple of weeks right now but the community has been great. Halstead has done a good job of bringing in food trucks and other vendors at a free cost to everyone. Overall very quiet around the community

Gilmarie O.

Love the amenities and outdoor activities. The area is really nice and well cleaned. Would love to have yoga or workout activities too. It has been a good experience and hope to see more

Amberly H.

Great on maintenance. Always responsive to any maintenance needs. Great outdoor amenities. Great location to nearby everything. Maintenance staff is always polite and friendly.

Nadyne L.

My experience thus far as been wonderful ranging from Management and especially the fast, prompt attention demonstrated by maintenance. Keep up the great job.

Kathryn D.

It’s a nice place and the staff is super friendly. I don’t get the trash fee because I feel like we should have an option of using it or not.

Kristina S.

Super friendly staff, incredibly clean, and amazing amenities! It’s also located near numerous restaurants, fast food joints, grocery stores, and entertainment.

Genelle O.

Under new management, hoping to start to see more new improvements. Love the resident events! Great way for neighbors and children to meet.

Nathan B.

Overall very good. A little noisy but what part of NOVA isn’t. Staff, especially maintenance staff, is amazing. Will continue to live here should I decide to stay in the area. Very central location to everything you need and close to a metro stop f...

So far so good 😊 Good and quite place to live. Thank you so very much for the good experience and service. I lived her for three years and i faced no issues so far

Emily W.

Amazing amenities and friendly staff! Such a lovely place to call home! Apartments are nicely updated and include amazing appliances (no microwave though)

Faryaal S.

It is a good place to live, good amenities, customer service is decent. The gym is good but there could be more equipment. Apartments themselves are in excellent condition, we love living here

Manuela B.

The apartments are great and the maintenance is really fast. The manager is always helping us. However we felt lack of support during Covid times for those who experienced financial problems

Josh R.

Overall great place to live. It is expensive but on par with everyone the area. Bozzuto has definitely made some good improvements since they’ve taken over.

Yang Z.

This is a nice place to live in. The maintenance team is great, we submit a ticket in the morning and they are here in a few hours. The only downside is there is a lot of mold in the apartment, and its hard to get rid of.

karen y.

Great experience so far. Great location. Well maintained community. Very new. Upgraded kitchen. I definitely recommend Halstead fair oaks to people.

Megan D.

I like the new things that have been added to the common areas. I wish the pool was bigger and had more lounge chairs. Community is pretty dog friendly

Peter S.

So far my experience has been fantastic at the Wheelhouse. My 1br/1bath apartment is plenty spacious and the features/appliances are all new, nice, and fantastic. I moved in amidst COVID so I've only just begun taking advantage of the community ameni...

Nice neighborhood. Great Location. Lots of amenities,discounts, and specials. Staff and maintenance very attentive to your needs. Looking forward to the outdoor theater!

Eufemiana D.

Happy with the Bozzuto Experience these last few months, and looking forward to more innovations and communication from Team Bozzuto! Looking forward to a mutually fulfilling residential experience.

Andrea T.

Living here has been a great experience. The community is clean and friendly and I love how everything is very close and central. Definitely recommend for people to live here.

Blaze D.

I feel like communication isn’t always the best from management we have had several occasions where they have scheduled loud work I.e. carpet replacement in the unit above us at 8 am or tree trimming at 8 am

Brian W.

I have been a Wheelhouse resident for three years, and Stacy and Crystal and their colleagues have been fantastic to work with! The property has always been quiet and clean and managed with professionalism.

Reagan W.

It’s been a great experience so far! The apartments are updated and nice. I’ve loved communicating with Angel, she’s the sweetest. Thanks for bringing food trucks in every week.

Sigalit M.

I love living here! Apartments are beautiful, maintenance is prompt and they have frequent community events like free breakfast, food trucks and raffles.

Andrew D.

Very nice place to be. I very much like the first come first serve parking. Food trucks are a nice touch. I’m interested to see what more the management will provide with covid restrictions being lifted.

Danielle B.

Very clean, organized and strong communication! I have had an excellent experience with the leasing office thus far, they know exactly what they are doing and can communicate effectively.

Smriti I.

Nice place to stay! Office staff is very good and supportive. Maintenance is quick and responsive. Great community where you can make friends.

Jessica L.

The community is great, but the noise is very loud from cars to trash trucks coming by. I love Angel she is the bomb! Always on point and very responsive. I say she was the reason I picked this location. Bozzuto might need to change the windows to ke...

Caroline A.

Moving in was a breeze and the place is beautiful! My roommate and I could not be more excited to have our first apartment here at Wheelhouse

Yvonee V.

We really love out new home and the neighborhood. We think that the living room is not properly arranged, because we are very limited about TV installation. And we hoped the principal room could be a little bigger to have a desk inside.

Lanaea A.

I have had a great time here. The only down side is the stealing of tires in the parking lots and I have to keep resigning new leases which is making me suspicious. I am on my 3rd lease in 3 months and am being asked to sign a new one again.

Erika R.

So far it’s been great! I wish we had a schedule with the timing to expect the trash pickups, I work a bit later than others and think I miss it often. Otherwise we love the community, amenities, food trucks, and how quiet it is here

Nicholas H.

Great experience for moving in! The orientation was attentive, as well as the service requests that were made following it up. I enjoy how quiet the community is, and that there are events and services always ready for residents. Major upgrade from m...

Emily B.

I enjoyed everything about living here except for how expensive it is for the quality. I also have a dog and feel like the dog park is very small and not the best option.

Karina G.

So far the community, neighborhood, and unit space has been lovely! I am new to the area so it means a lot when I see a friendly face and a clean space. Thanks Wheelhouse for making my transition comfortable, peaceful, and safe.

This is the greatest community I’ve ever lived it. Excellent service and amenities. The office employees are super stars. SHOUT OUT ANGEL AND CRYSTAL!!!

Great, friendly community that is clean and affordable. The staff is nice and helpful when there are issues that arise. I like that there is valet trash.

Great neighborhood but a little pricy for the size...still a good value for the area. Haven't had any serious issues that weren't taken care of.

The space can be a bit smaller than it looks in VR. But for the area, the price is reasonable, especially when you consider all the amenities you get. The events are fun and the food trucks are a highlight. Residents are friendly and the neighborhood...

Katherine P.

Living here is just fine. Nothing too special and nothing that's too bad. There are bug problems but they're pretty typical for the area (house centipedes etc.)

Colleen M.

Model apartment was much nicer than the one I was given. Hall's needs to be cleaned and updated. Toilet has been running since I moved it and they said they fixed it twice but it wasnt

Adriana M.

Nice neighborhood, so much to do around! We really like the complex. Never had any inconvenience with management and maintenance had always been so fast and efficient.

Felice J.

From the moment I sat down to talk about living at wheelhouse, I knew. Now being here almost 3 months, I can't imagine living anywhere else!

Jacquie H.

People reply quickly. Parking is annoying but not too bad I like that they have food trucks. I feel like the price is good it is strange that I pay directly from my bank account and still have to pay $.95

Lauren F.

Overall, it's been a great value for the money, and the staff are usually nice and helpful to us. Neighbors are also friendly. I have had my complaints here and there, mostly related to the building and maintenance. Things I've complained about in th...

Chase M.

I would say I’m pretty happy with the new management with only a few issues including the new array of processing fees for rent payments but other than that I have enjoyed my stay here.

Kara F.

Overall, the quality of the apartments for the price in our area is really great! Very few issues, and planning to resign our lease for the third year soon!

Katelyn T.

Been here over two years and am very happy. Great location, lovely apartments, and timely maintenance services when needed. Would recommend Wheelhouse to a friend!

Jayson L.

Its perfectly fine. Nice area, nice apartment, management has been fine so far, the walls are kinda thin however so if you don't like hearing your neighbors you might wanna look somewhere else.

I like living here. It is very conveniently located to my job and there is anything you could ever need or want within a 10 minute drive. I like all the neighbors I’ve become friendly with as well.

Kristen O.

Halie S.

So far, we have had an amazing experience within the Wheelhouse community. It’s a very quiet and luxurious area. We never run out of places to eat or things to do!

Afton D.

Overpriced for the size/quality. Appliances are either old or break regularly. Maintenance is always helpful & friendly when coming to fix. Safe & clean environment.

So far the best apartment I’ve lived at. Management is friendly, responsive and professional. The community is gorgeous. The unit is affordable in comparison to other complexes nearby. My only wish is the pool is open and the gym had longer hours

Kevin M.

Compared to the last place I lived this place is phenomenal. Not only better facilities but the staff is attentive and problems are solved quickly

LaShonda A.

I have lived here for 4 years and have appreciated the courtesy and kindness of the office and maintenance staff. Maintenance requests are resolved very quickly.

Bhupendra A.

Best community in Fairfax VA, We are staying here for last 10 plus years. Service is always on the same day & most of the time within the hour.

Arielle G.

Overall, clean and friendly community. Nice amenities (when they're open) and the food trucks that are scheduled are a nice touch. Maintenance is quick to respond.

Lacey W.

Amazing management. Great apartments and great community. Recently renovated apartments. Maintenance people respond very fast. Community feels safe and clean.

Kathryn D.

The bathrooms suck especially flushing the toilet. Someone hit my car and didn’t pay for it so now I have to pay to fix it. Do not make your residents pay for the trash service what if I wanted to save money and throw out my trash myself.

As a new resident, the move in process was great and the staff was very helpful! They answered all possible questions and were always quick to respond.

Moving in has been a breeze! I was very pleasantly surprised with the ability to do nearly everything virtually. The process was quick and easy to understand and the staff members were very helpful with my many last minute questions.

Genelle O.

Great neighborhood for families. A lot of places within walkable distance. Helpful staff. The only downside is the cost of rent for the size of the apartments.

Beautiful establishment with very friendly and helpful staff! The location of the property is a big plus. I would definitely recommend living in wheelhouse and any buzzutto managed property to a friend.

Honestly, have loved the first 2 weeks here. Very quiet, safe neighborhood and neighbors seem respectful of one another. Only ask would be that the gym be accessible outside of office hours.

Great place to live! Maintenance crew is great. The office staff (Crystal and Angel) are wonderful and always helpful & cheerful. The rest of the staff is new and I haven't met them or had any interactions with them yet.
