8006 Chanute Pl

A mid-20th-century low-rise condominium community built in 1966, Yorktowne (Yorktowne Square) consists of garden-style blocks and walk-up buildings set within park-like grounds. Most homes are two-bedroom floorplans with traditional and open configurations, modest formal dining or combined dining/living layouts, breakfast nooks or eat-in kitchens, and occasional den/office spaces. Interiors commonly feature wood or LVP flooring, upgraded counters and modernized kitchens with stainless appliances, plus recent paint and window treatments. Ground-level units often have private patios and direct parking access; upper units include balconies. Shared property elements emphasize outdoor recreation: two playgrounds/tot lots, picnic and barbecue areas, a large seasonal outdoor swimming pool, full-size basketball court, sidewalks, street lighting and walking paths. The condo fee structure is notable for covering most utilities (electricity, gas, heat, water and trash) and provides assigned and unassigned parking options with guest passes. Pet policies and concierge services vary by unit; overall the community favors low-maintenance living, convenient commuter access, and proximity to shops and transit in the Merrifield/Mosaic District corridor.
