[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also want to know, how old are the neighbors? Is this bad for young families?

Is this seen as a poor section of McLean?[/quote]

Mix of ages, but as homes turn over more young families are coming in.  Some snobs inside the beltway do see 22102 as the “poor” side of McLean which is nuts because there are 3+ mill homes in many enclaves (not the Hamlet).  A lot of folks renovate or build additions so homes are usually in the 1.2 - 1.4 mill range these days.  Seeing more new builds pop up (2 mill or so) but not pervasive like other parts of McLean or Pimmit.  The Hamlet is hilly so some lots are harder to rebuild on.  Highway noise is only a problem on the streets bordering the toll road etc.

Hamlet pool is great, no wait list bc it’s not fancy like Tuckahoe.  The neighborhood is fine but not the be all end all. Shouse is cheaper but further out.

If I were buying again I’d try to find something in Kent Gardens—more young families and the school is stronger.  Hadn’t want the French immersion so didn’t go for it but hindsight is 20-20.  There are more tear downs and new builds in the KG area.  [/quote]
