[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about Lee Heights?  Lots of large houses going up there (teardowns) and some built & expanded?  Tradition Homes seems to be buying and knocking down much of the neighborhood (no longer a good thing IMO).[/quote]

Yeah. It's sad. Some old, large vintage homes are being demolished in Lee Hts/Donaldson Run. The character of that neighborhood is changing fast.

Waverly Hills and Cherrydale are walkable to Ballston and/or Virginia Square and the shops in Lee Heights and/or the new "village center" in Cherrydale. Lots of teardowns and new homes there, but the older bungalows and tudors are beautifully preserved. Those neighborhoods are probably your best bet.

Just south of Clarendon and Va Square, Ashton Heights is another neighborhood with older, large homes, and it has largely been spared the teardown phenomenon because the existing housing stock is quite good. One large corner lot off of Lincoln has been subdivided (the original house remains), but in the old backyard a 5-7 bedroom house is under construction. [/quote]
