Any house will sell. You just have to price it accordingly.

I have a $3M modern farm house next to me that was bought by some wealthy Asian couple. They are never home, the lights are always off. They might show up a few times a year for a few days. The house just sits there, but I’m sure they can sell it in 5 years and make 500K+ on it as an investment.

Are people priced out of McLean?


This home is still better than the abomination that has been sitting for sale the last 6 months on the corner of Chain Bridge and Great Falls in McLean. Black/White McMansion sitting on one of the busiest intersections in McLean for over 2 million always had me scratching my head when I drove by.
+1 Terrible location.


And, yet, will still apparently sell for more than any house in Pimmit Hills.

Can't believe it is under contract now. Who will buy it? No backyard, no privacy, maybe an embassy who wanted to be visible?

I don’t understand what compels someone to go for a house this big in a meh location over spending $2.4M on something maybe a bit smaller in a better location.


The location is great.

Ignore Great Schools in 2024.

Their “grades” are now meaningless:

Instead of spending 3m in McLean, kids are going to private school. The 700k saved in house is allocated for school.

Grandparents are living with you

They want a bigger house and that's where price/location works. Different people have different priorities.

I live in an original Pimmit Hills house (with a tiny 1980s addition). I love, love, love, love these houses, however ugly they may be, selling for 2 million. More, please.

I love watching people hate pimmit hills for the “cookie cutter houses” and then for the “mishmash of architectural styles”, all in the space of sixty seconds.
