Condo Real Estate in AlexandriaAlexandria is awesome, and that’s not hyperbolic agent-hype. Centrally-located and convenient to D.C., Maryland, and just about everything else, the hub of Fairfax County is perennially desirable to NoVA buyers. Plenteous Metro access, great schools, and abundant dining, shopping, and culture don’t hurt, either! And yet, the steep prices for homes there can be a deterrent. Rents are high, and stock - as is quickly becoming the case in much of the metro area - is limited. Tracking down affordable living can seem like a pipe dream, but I am here to tell you that it can be done. The following are a trio of condo complexes in Alexandria where spacious, updated 2-bedroom units can be had for under $200k.

The Villages - Ensconced in abundant greenery and graced with a crystal-clear community pool, The Villages provide comfortable living for DC commuters looking for a value but unwilling to settle. There are 147 units here, with 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom layouts. Roomy living spaces, generous closets, and plenty of natural light are yours! Most of the units currently up for sale are freshly updated with stainless, energy-saving appliances, wooden floors, sparkly-new bathrooms, and luxury lighting and trim.

Sequoyah - The Sequoyah has been riding a favorable upswing in reputation since the reinvigoration of the housing market, with major renovations (the multi-millions kind) and continued community development driving up both prices and interest. Rumors of bringing the Metro downtown to Ft. Belvoir have been especially interesting with regards to Sequoyah… if this expansion comes to fruition, residents can expect property values to soar. All 2- and 1-bedroom units, most of which are attractive and updated.

The Seasons - Those who like to keep things simple will love it at The Seasons. Most units feature hardwood and pretty, neutral tile throughout, ensuring that these condos are turnkey-friendly for just about everyone. The square footage is generous, and the floorplans are open and inviting! All utilities are included in your monthly condo fee! There’s an onsite swimming pool and assigned parking as well. There are some 3-bedroom units, some of which can also currently be had for under $200,000.
