Typical Beautiful Fall Colors in Arlington 22207
Chain Bridge Forest is probably just about the most residential neighborhood you can find in North Arlington, Virginia. If you want a house with huge rooms, a rolling, wooded setting, and a short commute to DC to Tyson’s Corner, this is the neighborhood for you.
According to the Arlington County tax records there are 205 homes in the Chain Bridge Forest neighborhood, which is located just on the border to McLean, Virginia. What that number doesn’t tell you is that there is such a wonderful variety of home styles in that number of 205. California contemporaries, Colonials, ramblers, custom designs. You find them all here, and amazingly it works.
The homes in Chain Bridge Forest were built in the 1960’s and 70’s. If the interior of the home is a little outdated, it’s usually easy (and economical) enough to renovate within the existing footprint of the home in order to have the space the way you want it.
This neighborhood does have one quirk, though. It actually goes into Fairfax County also. Some homes have a portion in Arlington County and another in Fairfax County. When that happens, you get separate tax bills from each jurisdiction. Certainly not a problem if that’s the price you pay to live in this terrific neighborhood.
Over the past 6 months, only two homes have been listed for sale in Chain Bridge Forest, and they each sold relatively quickly. One was a huge Colonial, the other a huge Contemporary. Both were priced at over $1 million, and offered a lot of value for the money.
