Condo Comparison at the Huntington Metro: SIZE/price per square foot
This is part of series of articles comparing the benefits of condos in close proximity to the Huntington Metro
In each of these articles I’m doing a head-to-head comparison of
these complexes and then selecting a winner from each category. I’m
making these selections based upon my personal opinion, and you might
not agree with my opinion, but I’ve put it out there as a starting
point for a home buyer’s discussion.
If you want the most space in your condo, for the least amount of
cash, then Huntington Club the pick from this category. Most Huntington
Club one bedroom units sell for well-under $200k; many are currently
less than $175k. Many Huntington Club two bedroom units sell for less
than $250k, most for less than $200k. You can even find a three bedroom
at Huntington Club for well under $300k. The rooms in these units are
large and open. There is ample closet space. When one compares the
price of the unit to the amount of living space you get, Huntington
Club is the value buy at the Huntington Metro.
Hunting Creek Club is nicely proportioned. The rooms do not feel
abbreviated. Even the studios at the Hunting Creek Club are larger than
1 bedrooms at some of the area’s newest complexes.
Montebello also “feels” big compared to many newer condos. This is
in part due to the floor plans, but the smaller 1 bedrooms at
Montebello measure in at 850 sq ft.
As one might expect, the Midtowns of Alexandria—the newest condos
in this lot—offer the least amount of space for the most amount of
money.
