Question: What type of property appreciates faster — condo, townhouse, or single-family?


Adorable, affordable, Arlington classic with a big screen porch for lazy day lounging or weekday working from home. Recent updates include gas furnace, gas water heater, gutters, microwave and fresh paint.

The long living room is anchored by a wood burning fireplace and accommodates a desk or several seating areas. A French door opens to the screened porch and the lushly landscaped yard — complete with garden shed. A breakfast bar separates the dining room from the kitchen, and a wall of built-ins provides cabinet storage and display shelving for the dining room. Crisp white cabinets, granite countertops and stainless appliances — including a gas range — will appeal to cooks of every skill set. And a door from the kitchen to the driveway makes it easy to bring groceries and packages directly into the home.


Join us Sunday, June 5 from 1-4 p.m. for the 19th annual Green Community Tour (formerly the Green Home and Garden Tour)! Get great ideas and inspiration for how YOU can help Arlington build a greener community.
