Fair Oaks · western Fairfax County, Virginia
Penderbrook’s detached houses, townhomes and condominiums are arranged around an 18-hole public golf course in the Fair Oaks area near I-66 and Route 50. Its 1,776 homes belong to seven smaller neighborhoods, known as land bays. The master association manages shared facilities, including a clubhouse, fitness center, courts and pool complex, with access arrangements separate from public golf.
Penderbrook brings seven residential neighborhoods together around a public golf course in the Fair Oaks area. Known locally as land bays, the neighborhoods include different housing forms and have their own association arrangements within the larger 1,776-home community.
The master association manages shared facilities including the clubhouse, fitness center, courts and pool complex. The golf course is open to the public, while resident-facility access follows separate rules. Fair Oaks shopping and the nearby Route 50 and I-66 corridors place the community within a wider commercial and transportation area.
Detached houses are in the Greens; townhomes are in the Fairways, Inverness and Mews; and condominiums are in the Heights, Oxford House and Penderbrook Square. Each home’s land-bay association sits within the master-community structure. Maintenance and exterior-change responsibilities therefore depend on the specific home and its documents.
The golf landscape and the neighborhood's association services have different access arrangements. These official references help explain each one.
PCA's June 2026 course guide limits the golf grounds to registered paying players and authorized personnel. Walking, running and cycling on the course and its cart paths are prohibited, as are pets and recreational use of the ponds. Use the guide when planning routes around the neighborhood.
Association documents and architectural-change resources are available through the master association’s member sign-in. Each land bay also has its own organization; start with the correct neighborhood when requesting records or exterior-change guidance.
