Lake Anne is one of Reston's first planned neighborhoods
The Reston area's design makes it a community with planned subdivisions that are always close to places to shop, work, or play. Lake Anne is distinguished from the other neighborhoods in Reston by its tree-heavy residential streets and cul-de-sacs and its central recreational hub of Lake Anne, one of Reston's four manmade lakes. Lake Anne is one of the largest in town, offering boating, hiking trails, and the promenade of Lake Anne Plaza for lakeside retail and dining. The Lake Anne neighborhood also encompasses one of Reston's most prominent business centers, Reston Station, which has expanded recently. "Lake Anne is the first part of the planned community that was established in 1965, so it's a lot more historic," says Nikki Lagouros, real estate agent with Berkshire Hathaway. "People who want to live in Lake Anne are pure Restonians." Lake Anne Village Center was named on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.
Lake Anne is known for it's beautiful lakeside homes.
Lake Anne homes either overlook the lake or are a short drive away.

Things to do at Lake Anne
Lake Anne is one of the bigger recreational spaces in Reston. Jordyn Roberts, a social media strategist and Reston native for over ten years, says, "I've seen a lot of people paddleboarding there, and it used to be part of the triathlon. There's usually a polar plunge that's hosted at Lake Anne too." The Lake Anne SUP Triathlon is an annual event where those who compete will run, paddleboard, and ride stationary bikes around the lake. Meanwhile, the Kiwanis Club of Tysons, a volunteer org, hosts the annual Lake Anne Polar Dip, a fundraising event where people can donate to charitable causes and dive into Lake Anne, usually towards the end of winter. Lake Anne's Polar Dip has raised over $1 million dollars in 18 years. The Lake Anne Blue Trail is one of several maintained by the Reston Association, the HOA for much of the area. Residents can access the trail network from all over the neighborhood. The Reston Association also maintains 15 pools in Reston, which residents can access by purchasing a recreation pass. Residents of Lake Anne are close to the Golf Course Island Pool, which also has water play fountains for the kids, a playground, and a grassy picnic area.

It's really cool because there's a lot of jobs and its close to the metro. I wouldn't say it came up from nothing, but it expanded greatly, there's a ton of opportunities for people to work or gather."
