[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I would like to buy a townhouse in Vienna with 3 bedrooms.  We have two small kids (3 and 6 months) and will likely stay for 5-7 years before we move to a SFH.  We would love to live close to the main commercial area, but most importantly, we would really like to be around other young families, and near playgrounds and parks.  Our budget is 775k.  We will each be commuting into DC two days a week.

Thanks for any recommendations! [/quote]

Virginia Center. Located between the metro station and Nottoway Park. Schools and grocery nearby. Excellent school pyramid. Homes are roughly 2500 sq ft, in good overall shape, and in your price range.

+1 for the area just north of the metro and a little west is the Country Creek development.  It is TEEMING with families and kids!  The bus stop in the morning for elementary doubles as a social circles for moms and dads!  Great area for kids and families to use the park.  Fits your needs very well.[/quote]

That's a really sterile area, OP.  No character at all.  I would keep looking.  [/quote]

It’s got loads of character compared to other NOVA neighborhoods in OP’s criteria. A big reason is the adjoining park and the tons of trails running through the area. Clarendon is sterile, this area is definitely not. [/quote]

Check it out yourself, OP.  It is near a nice park, but it's not a walkable part of Vienna and a developer just stuck dozens of townhouses in an area near the Metro with no character.  The Clarendon area is way better, but of course the prices reflect that. [/quote]

OP here.  Our budget is what it is, so there's not a whole lot we can do about that.  If there are neighborhoods that you think we would like that fit our budget, I'd love to hear them.[/quote]
