Part of the Manchester Lakes planned community in Alexandria VA (22310), Essex House condominiums offer comfort, convenience, and a walkable community that’s close to shops and restaurants.

Just under 10 minutes from the beltway (I-495), Essex House residents benefit from the Fairfax Connector bus service that goes directly to the Franconia-Springfield metro (end of the blue line) and being just two red lights to the I-95 HOV lanes. 

Highly acclaimed Fairfax County Public Schools nearby include Franconia Elementary, Mark Twain Middle School, and sought-after Thomas Edison High School.

In addition to enjoying the amenities of Manchester Lakes, Essex House residents can take advantage of recreational activities at the nearby Lee District Recreation Center, Greendale Golf Course, Hilltop Golf Club, and the family-friendly Top Golf in Kingstowne.

 The spacious floor plans in Essex House condos offer two model types.  The Coventry and the Gentry models are both two bedrooms and square footage ranges from 981 (without the upper level loft) to 1301 (with the upper level loft).  The lower level units have an enclosed patio, and the upper level units have private balconies.  Upper level units with lofts are highly desired, as the spiral staircase access to the loft is very contemporary, and the added square footage of the loft is perfect for storage, a home office, or recreational den.  All homes have a wood-burning fireplace and washer/dryer (hookup).

Manchester Lakes Real Estate Sales Update For January 2010

How did the condos and townhomes for sale in Manchester Lakes (Alexandria 22310) compare in January 2010?  Take a look at you’ll notice that the high number that stands out is the current number of active condos for sale. Home sellers in the Tiers, Tiers II, Surrey, Essex House, and Victoria Crossings are likely competing with the neighboring Kingstowne condos for sale (see Kingstowne stats for January 2010).

The community of Manchester Lakes continues to draw first time home buyers with the affordable condos.  The townhomes in Manchester Lakes rarely come on the market, but when they do, they are usually sold pretty quickly.  Last month, one townhome went under contract.  I’ll be keeping a close eye on the Manchester Lakes condo activity over the next couple of weeks.  Condo home sellers should be sure that when they check the competition that their listing agent not only stays on top of the immediate 22310 condo inventory, but also the adjacent 22315 condo inventory.

Still Waiting For That 35 Degree High

Well, hell hasn’t frozen over, but some of the ponds at Manchester Lakes have.  Check out the geese walking on the pond.  Do you think they’re ready for a swim or what?  Maybe they’re just hanging around and waiting for Happy Hour …it’s 5 o’clock somewhere right?
