Under $700K near Tysons - does this exist?

[Anonymous]

Probably the least expensive neighborhood with a very short commute to Tysons is Pimmit Hills (as already mentioned on here). But the developers are onto it, so this is what you get for 775k: https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/2110-Pimmit-Dr_Falls-Church_VA_22043_M61955-70681?from=srp-list-card

In Tysons you can probably afford a condo, outside of Tysons you can get a townhouse, but it won't be a big beautiful new townhouse, it will be an older style one. But families with 1-2 kids can live perfectly fine in a townhouse.

This. You have no money, but champagne taste. Need to get that reality check. Also, why you cannot live with a baby in condo or a townhouse? Millions of families around the world do it. I grew up with 7 people with 1 full bathroom and sleeping with 3 sisters in one room. I am OK and very successful.

Have you considered Sterling? It’s close to Tysons. They are just about finished with the Rt 7 construction.

Falls Church is the answer. If you can go a bit above $700k, look at Greenway Downs - this recently sold for $720k (https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/2819-Summerfield-Rd-Falls-Church-VA-22042/51813904_zpid/?utm_campaign=iosappmessage&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=txtshare) or this one sold for $620k within the last 6 months (https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/2812-Bolling-Rd-Falls-Church-VA-22042/51813955_zpid/?utm_campaign=iosappmessage&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=txtshare). Id also suggest the townhouses near Jefferson Golf Course up Lee Highway - has a community pool, playground, a few in-home daycares, zoned for Shrevewood with tons of young families (https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/7806-Hyson-Park-Ct-Falls-Church-VA-22043/51809733_zpid/?utm_campaign=iosappmessage&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=txtshare). All of these are easy commutes to Tysons.

I agree that lets of fairfax near 66/495 would be a good option. Plus good schools.

Are you trying to say cheapest and best area.

It’s the worst part near Tyson’s so it’s the cheapest.

Pimmit Hills is not so cheap anymore! There are other communities around there with nice townhouses though - the ones next to Marshall HS and the ones off of Idylwood come to mind.

There are no houses within a 10-15 minute drive to Tysons. that aren't tear downs, and we REALLY don't want to live in a condo with a baby. Maaaaaaaaaybe open to townhouses, but are they kid friendly? Any recs on where to look or are we being totally unrealistic?

A SFH near Tysons for under $700k? You are being unrealistic
You won't even find a SFH for under $700k in the outer suburbs nowadays.

None of those are close to Tysons.
