[quote=Anonymous]OP, what would you consider walking distance to metro?  If you can tolerate a slightly longer walk, there is some nice housing stock in Overlee knolls and Tara/Leeway heights.  These are the neighborhoods bounded by Lee Highway to the North, 66 to the south, and Sycamore to the west.  Depending on where you end up, it is probably a quarter mile to one mile walk to East Falls Church.

You may also want to look at Madison Manor (behind McKinley ES).  It's across 66 from the neighborhoods just mentioned and an easy walk to EFC from anywhere in the neighborhood.  Currently it seems to be the southernmost protrusion of the Yorktown district in that direction.  Most of the original houses there are fairly modest 50s ramblers, but there are a number of teardown lots with nicer new homes in your price range.

If you can compromise on W-L versus Yorktown, look at the neighborhood just north of Clarendon metro, which has lots of good-sized houses and is very walkable to metro (and expensive).  If you can compromise on metro accessibility, you are probably good anywhere in Yorktown.  For sheer beauty, I love Bellevue Forest (if you can put up with the airplane noise).[/quote]
