This post isn't about this residence at 2805 Russell Rd. I'm writing about the aspects I appreciate Alexandria. I'd like to highlight just some elements residents love Alexandria VA:
- Alexandria boasts Metro stations at Van Dorn, Huntington, Eisenhower, King Street and Braddock Road.
- Fresh Market, Wegman's, Giant, and M.O.M.'s Organic Market are just a few of our many grocery options. In addition, Alexandria has a plethora of ethnic and international grocers. Alexandria is a foodie-heaven.
- Alexandria residents have great access to Reagan National Airport. Alexandria is also reasonably close to both Dulles International and Baltimore Washington International Airport.
- The King Street Trolley transports riders between the King Street Metro Station and the Potomac River waterfront. DASH operates the free King Street Trolley with environmentally friendly, hybrid vehicles.
Real Estate and Neighborhoods of Alexandria, VA
Alexandria dates back to the colonial era and many of the neighborhoods of Alexandria reflect that heritage. However, Alexandria is also home to newer and relatively new neighborhoods like the
Carlyle District and
Kingstowne. To learn more about these or other neighborhoods in Alexandria VA, surf through the tabs here.
Alexandria is a highly livable city with enviable amenities, culture and attractions. The Commonwealth of Virginia considers Alexandria an “independent city” which means that Alexandria is not in any county. However, parts of Northern Virginia have an Alexandria postal address, but are actually in Fairfax County. All this can be confusing for newcomers to the area, but we try to simplify this in our guide by organizing things so they make sense for the home buyer.
