McLean High School is a 6/10 too.

One has 10/10 for college readiness and one has 6/10.

Are people priced out of McLean?

This home is still better than the abomination that has been sitting for sale the last 6 months on the corner of Chain Bridge and Great Falls in McLean. Black/White McMansion sitting on one of the busiest intersections in McLean for over 2 million always had me scratching my head when I drove by.

That house is pending also.

I’m sure it will be a rental for multiple families and/or used as a dentist office. No way a family will pay that much just to live in a fishbowl with massive traffic right outside those big windows.

Can't believe it is under contract now. Who will buy it? No backyard, no privacy, maybe an embassy who wanted to be visible?

I see it’s contingent. Maybe contingent on those tiny evergreens surrounding the house growing another 20 feet for privacy?

They really coulda splurged and bought the evergreens that are 5 feet tall.

Because Great Schools uses AP enrollment as a weight for college readiness, and Marshall only offers IB courses. You can see in the scoring, state average is 23% for AP enrollment and 1% for IB. That’s what’s pulling its score down. If they combined the metric, Marshall would exceed all state averages. McLean has better college readiness metrics otherwise, but Marshall’s is better than a 6.

A quick google search would tell you they use AP, IB, and SAT.

EYA is a good company, their high-end townhouse developments always help the neighborhoods.

Looks like the buyer backed out as this house is back on the market.

The abomination on chain bridge road is still under contract. I guess that’s a new low for pimmit.
