[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I the only one who caught that it says "Manners" in the subdivision name?

All I can think is "Thank goodness I don't need to live in Arlington" ;)

My house (about the same size and half the price) was being used as a 5 BR when we saw it - because they had turned the den/family room into a bedroom for one of their 4 adult children who had been living at home.

Yeah, I don't see how these prices are sustainable, really.  [b]But someone will pay it ..[/b].[/quote]

[b]What is the alternative for this area? [/b] An older brick colonial in that price range and similar or slightly more sq.ft would cost over a million easily.  New construction starts at 1.5 mil.  Ramblers are not bad, at least most living sleeping places are on one floor, less stairs and some people prefer it this way. [/quote]

Meant to say a colonial in similar size (not price range) would go for over a mil.  And new construction probably starts at 1.7 mil more so than 1.5 mil.   it's crazy prices for all types of home, no bargains there. [/quote]

The alternative is to move to another area. [b] Really, Arlington is not worth it, no matter how much you hate commuting[/b].[/quote]

Says who? You just sound bitter. Yes, we've sacrificed space s that my husband could get that extra 45min every single evening with us. But then again, a mansion was never what we were after. We wanted proximity, good schools, and a reasonable house to call our own. Love how small a county Arlington is. Love how progressive it is. Love its proximity to everything. Love how diverse it is. Love love love. And yes, given the demand, I'd say most people agree with me. [/quote]

Arlington schools? get back to me when they are in par to fairfax and moxo[/quote]
