[quote=Anonymous]As other posters have pointed out, this is a condo and not a true townhouse. The listing indicates as such and specifies two floors, while the building itself seems to have four floors, so the top two floors will belong to someone else (which ain't ideal especially at that price point). Moreover, given retiring, stairs may not be ideal long term (granted it's only one floor up but still). But may be difficult to find a one story house so not very sure how to rectify that issue. The actual size (2 br and 1300) is probably fine for retirement, don't need as much space plus cleaning smaller is easier imo. I do think it's overpriced given that it's a condo with others above you, and as someone else also pointed out, you are paying a premium for easy boat access. Looking around (walkable areas so old Town, Georgetown, and Rosslyn Through Ballston) not seeing anything under a million or even 1.25 that is only one floor. Most are multi floor townhouses. But I am sure in a few months a decent amount of inventory will hit the market. [/quote]
