[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have close family moving from out of state to McLean with a budget of ~4 million. Wanted to get feedback and criticism on these two properties that they recently toured:

1. https://www.redfin.com/VA/Mc-Lean/8310-Weller-Ave-22102/home/9265755

2. https://www.redfin.com/VA/Mc-Lean/893-Georgetown-Ridge-Ct-22102/home/109702428[/quote]

House 1 is in a preferable location but has a shared driveway.  Looks like a nice new ski location house. House 2 is only accessible offf Georgeown Pike.  Looks like many upscale newish shops and malls.  Neither is large lot.

Realtor is driving the relocating family to weird properties. Need to move so how about this place?  It's new!
Note some one bought a house in the reserve for less $ -  https://www.redfin.com/VA/McLean/7797-Solitude-Ct-22102/home/9830358[/quote]

This house is 20 years old!  And showing its age.  The kitchen and the master bath are dated.

Buyers at this price point want turnkey.  [/quote]

The grounds are gorgeous and the bones are great, the flow is nice for open concept if that’s your thing. Even the beigyness of it/aging is graceful. It’s not a nasty looking shade. Doesn’t smack you in the face with grey and white modernity but I could live with it. [/quote]

This house has great potential but requires significant work. Its location in the Reserve is not great and the overall quality of homes in the neighborhood is subpar. The exterior is beautiful, but the pool and pool house need attention. Inside, the builder-grade fixtures, bathrooms, and kitchen would all need to be gutted. I believe it would sell quickly in the $3.5M-$4M range.

There’s also a “coming soon” listing in Spring Hill Farm, priced below this home. The build quality there is exceptional. Though the homes in Spring Hill Farm were built just a few years after those in the Reserve, they are crafted with far more attention to detail and quality.

Spring Hill Farm is a great neighborhood.  Only 18 houses on 25 acres. George Sagatov was the builder and the houses are beautiful and built to last 100+ years.  The HOA fee is 1/2 that of “THE Reserve”[/quote]

This particular home in Spring Hill Farm is odd.  The rest of the homes were built by Artisan Builders. Why was this one done by another builder?

Also, why no pictures of the inside of the home?  It’s been on the MLS since November.  [/quote]
