Houses in that price range in Vienna usually go quickly.  You might get a slightly bigger house for that amount of money further west in the 22181 zip code.  [/quote]

that was what I thought.  I assume there is a pretty good reason they aren't selling considering the area and price.  Has anyone been inside these homes and can clue us in on why they aren't moving?[/quote]

I've noticed in 22182/22181 a lot of reasonably priced SFHs (let's say, 650K and under) aren't selling as fast as Townhouses.  A lot of the townhouses are newly remodeled, granite countertops, new kitchens, etc.  I feel like a lot of buyers are opting for a TH with nicer finishes over a comparably priced SFH, which is not conventional wisdom for sure, but families are smaller now, need less yard space, maybe that explains it.[/quote]

Definitely the case that Vienna-area schools that have a lot of upscale townhouses within their boundaries, like Westbriar and Freedom Hill ES, are seeing increasing enrollments, while schools that draw almost entirely from expensive neighborhoods of single-family homes are projected to see their enrollments decline as current residents "age in place."
