[quote=Anonymous]OP - I found the 19:24 post really strange, too.  Just seemed incredibly over-the-top.

Use McMansion if you want to use the term, but understand that, on DCUM and other forums, it's viewed as the term of choice for people who live in DC and places like Arlington with older homes to put down just about any new home.  Can be a cheap new home on a large lot, or an expensive new home on a small lot; can be a house by Toll Brothers or an expensive custom builder; doesn't matter to these folks because the point of the exercise is to suggest they have superior taste by living in an older or smaller house.

I don't think you meant it pejoratively, but you kind of stepped into it, and the other poster then went off the rails.

Anyway, good look with your search.  I do think that, in your price range, you'll have a lot of competition for less expensive homes in the parts of McLean that walkable to the commercial area, since builders and other buyers are snapping them up to build, what do you call them, McMansions.   Not really any different than Arlington in this regard, since the area's further from the Metro but has what are often considered better schools.  [/quote]
