Mantua (Submitted by A)

Mantua is a sought after neighborhood a few miles outside the Beltway off Little River Turnpike and extend all the way over to Route 50/Arlington Boulevard- great neighborhood feel - very nicely treed thru-out (the Mantua logo is a tree!) - pool and tennis club- top notch school pyramid with Mantua elementary and then Frost and Woodson - there are different sections of Mantua and there are lots of different style homes sprinkled thru-out the neighborhood- lots of stately brick Colonials but you will also find ramblers, split levels and foyers and even some contemporary homes thru-out - pool and tennis club with active swim team for the kids - generally have nice sized lots- quick access to major highways- Dun Loring Metro about 10 minutes away by car

Mantua (Submitted by BH)

The Mantua community has excellent schools and a very active civic organization. There is no home owners association, but the residents have various interest clubs that meet regularly- Moms groups, tennis club, gardening club, book clubs, community pool, etc. This is a great community for families - there is an annual Mantua parade, Pool parties, kids clothing rummage sale, and more. The community consists of single family homes and most of the streets have sidewalks. The location is wooded and on rolling hills, many of the homes are on parkland and all of the homes are close to the Fairfax County cross county biking/hiking trail and Eakin Park. Although residents have the feeling of seclusion, they are close to I495, I66, Route 236, Route 50 and many shops and restaurants. It is a 20 minute drive to Washington, DC without heavy traffic.
