Classic red bricks, central location, many amenities make Riverton a top pick
Located at the intersection of Bashford Lane and the GW Parkway, Riverton condominiums provide comfortable, simple living that’s great for commuters.
Built in the 1940s, Riverton’s class red brick structure has been part of Old Town Alexandria for decades, but developers recently renovated the buildings, converting Riverton‘s three buildings into condominiums. Riverton is just a few blocks from the Potomac River waterfront, shopping, parks, restaurants, nightlife and Washington, D.C. Also, Riverton is a short drive from the Ronald Reagan National Airport.
Because the buildings were built decades ago, the condos don’t have a ton of storage space. People just didn’t own much in the 1940s! But Riverton has plenty of desirable features and amenities, including one- or two-bedroom floor plans and recently renovated interiors that provide a modern feel.
Riverton‘s open-floor kitchens contain 42-inch maple cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and hardwood flooring. The rest of the home offers track lighting, Berber carpeting and ceramic-tiled bathrooms flooring. Individually metered utilities, a washer/dryer unite and controlled heating and air conditioning are also available. Outside the condos, community amenities include a fitness center, a lounge and a swimming pool.

Henry and Duke streets, Old Town Village homes and condos are within walking distance of many appealing destinations, including:
- King Street Metro Station

- Potomac River waterfront
- Alexandria National Cemetery
Plus, Old Town Village is a short five-minute walk from a Whole Foods store. Old town Village also provides convenient living for commuters as its near the Capital Beltway, the Woodrow Wilson Bridge and U.S. Rt. 1.
History fills Old Town Village, which is the former location of the Norfolk and Southern Railroad. Years ago, developers considered the land unsuitable for commercial or retail spaces, but that changed after testing the land in the area and beginning construction of the homes in the mid 1990s.
Old Town Village features homes and condos with Victorian, Georgian and colonial architectural design. Amenities include a clubhouse, a recreation center, a swimming pool and many neighborhood events and activities. The replica Roundhouse building reflects the history of Old Town Alexandria and provides a place for town gatherings and events.

About 67 percent believe housing is a safe investment, down from 83 percent of people questioned in a similar survey in 2003.

10 Reasons to Buy a Home
Time magazine is being overly pessimistic in its recent cover piece that called into question the benefits of homeownership. In fact, now is a great time to buy. And, what’s more, tomorrow will be a great time to own, because the fundamental strength of homeownership hasn’t changed.
Why is now a great time to buy? Here are 10 reasons:
- You can get a good deal. Prices are down 30 percent on average. They’re at a level that makes sense for people’s income.
- Mortgages are cheap. At 4.3 percent on average for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage, your costs to own are down by a fifth from two years ago.
- You can save on taxes. When you add up the deductions for mortgage interest and others, the cost of owning can drop below renting for a comparable place.
- It’ll be yours. The one benefit to owning that never changes is that you can paint your walls orange if you want (generally speaking; there might be some community restrictions). How many landlords will let you do that?
- You can get a better home. In some markets, it’s simply the case that the nicest places are for-sale homes and condos.
- It offers some inflation protection. Historically, appreciation over time outpaces inflation.
- It’s risk capital. If the economy picks up, you stand to benefit from that, even if you’re goal is just to have a nice place to live.
- It’s forced savings. A part of your payment each month goes to equity.
- There is a lot to choose from. There are some 4 million homes available today, about a year’s supply. Now’s the time to find something you like and get it.
- Sooner or later the market will clear. The U.S. is expected to grow by another 100 million people in 40 years. They have to live somewhere. Demand will eventually outpace supply.
