[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry sv seems nice but is too far out and not in the beltway. Last I checked there are quite a few million dollar plus homes in 22182 marshall district under contract or sold. This isn't 1993 where living far out in a car dependent neighborhood is acceptable, traffic has gotten much worse. The difference between the mclean vs marshall pyramids are nothing but   the name. In fact the last scores put the middle schools on par at perfect 10s[/quote]

Yes, there are many $1M+ properties in the Marshall district/22182.  Most of them are not in walkable areas, and they usually don't sell as quickly as similar properties in the Madison or McLean districts (consider, for example, how many unsold homes there are in Maymont, or how long it's been taking Sekas Homes to sell out "Thistle Ridge" in the Marshall district compared to their "Francis Young" development in the Madison district or their "Hastings Estates" development in the Mclean district), but they are very nice houses.  If you could afford a $1.2 M house in the Marshall district, you might very well pick that over a $800K house in the McLean district.

On the other hand, if you're budget is roughly $800-850K, and you can find a house in Vienna/22182 in the Langley, McLean or Madison districts, that house will still have an edge over a similar house in the Marshall district.  So, for example, a house in Shouse Village (McLean district) or Eudora (Madison district) will typically sell more quickly than one in The Trails (Marshall district), although there is a really strong demand right now for houses in that price range anywhere in 22182.
