Since I get asked a lot of questions about condos in Arlington, as a new feature to my blog I am going to be looking at individual complexes in dept
h in order to help spread the word about how great some of these buildings are!
For my first “Condo Focus” article, I chose a wonderful complex located in the heart of the Ballston-Virginia Square corridor, Lexington Square. It is comprised of 4 towers located on the quiet 9th Street, which parallels Wilson Blvd and Fairfax Drive and can be found between Pollard and Oakland Streets.
The buildings were completed from 2000–2002 and boast some traditional floorplans as well as some really spectacular, light filled very different layouts, too! Some units even have gas fireplaces. The buildings have beautiful marble lobbies – one for each side of 9th Street. On the North side (the photo above) is where you’ll find the 2–tiered swimming pool and on the south side you can find the exercise room and outdoor grilling area/lawn.
Currently there are only 5 units listed for sale: 1 one–bedroom unit, 1 one–
bedroom/den and 3 two–bedroom units. They range in price from $399,000 to $485,000. So far in 2007, there have been 11 one-bedroom units that have sold with an average selling price of $376K and 59 days on the market – although, one that was priced to sell only took 5 days to sell! There were 10 two-bedroom units that have sold this year-to-date averaging $529K and taking 74 days on the market… although, just like the one-bedroom units, one that was priced to sell only took 5 days to sell. By the way, the highest price paid this year for a unit in Lexington Square was $690K for a very large (over 1,500 square feet) model on the 10th floor… wow! Like I said, be on the lookout for some very rare and unusual floorplans – you’ll find them here, for sure!
If you’re looking for a great condo along the orange metro line, I highly encourage you to take a look at Lexington Square… a few other important things to mention – their condo fees are VERY reasonable, and it’s a pet friendly building! To learn more about this great complex, give me a buzz or drop me a line!
Happy Wednesday

[...] can also come with an idea of a short blog post you might want to write. You could write about a neighborhood you know well, a class you recently took, something you think needs to change in our business, or specific advice [...]
