There are quite a few homes with price improvement to choose this week!
Mortgage applications have been setting records this year and with low inventory, it’s still a seller’s market. Even in a seller’s market, there is room for a deal. Unique homes and homes that have been overpriced can still sit on the market and we have quite a few this week that moved to a more attractive price point.
This week’s Luxury for Less features everything from a home in McLean with an amazing location and address (1655 Strine Drive) to a new build opportunity in Vienna (1330 Vanetta Lane).
My favorite listing this week comes to us courtesy of TTR Sotheby’s International Realty. This exquisite French Provincial manor features a dramatic entry way, imported fountains, elegant outdoor entertaining space and an Olympic-sized salt water swimming pool. This home truly captures luxury at its finest:
