Plymouth Haven is a quiet neighborhood along Fort Hunt Road
Plymouth Haven is near the terminus of Fort Hunt Road at the Potomac River.
Plymouth Road starts and ends on Fort Hunt Road. This is because it cuts the corner where Fort Hunt Road turns from Vernon View toward the GW Parkway at Fort Hunt Park. Plymouth Road defines the Fairfax County neighborhood of Plymouth Haven. Although many Plymouth Haven homes sport extensive refurbishments and renovations, the original homes of Plymouth Haven are generally modest upper-middle-class homes from the middle of the last century. The desirability of the Plymouth Haven neighborhood and the large lots found there have encouraged builders to knock-down many homes and to build large luxury homes.

Is Luxury Making a Comeback?
Uber-rich Americans are spending again, on everything from fancy cars to second homes.
“Personal embracement of luxury is now back to (pre-recession) 2007 levels,” marketing specialist Jim Taylor, author of “Selling to the New Elite,” told USA Today. “We’re seeing that in cars, private jet usage and finally, in high-end real estate. There’s a real change in the way people feel about money. They’re making purchases they put off during the recession.”
For example, second-home markets are on the rise: Vacation homes in Cape Cod, Mass., for example, increased 9 percent in 2010. In Palm Beach, Fla., home sales increased nearly 40 percent, and in Hilton Head, S.C., home sales were up nearly 14 percent. Luxury home sales in Southern California are also beginning to pick up, analysts say.
“We’re starting to see movement,” says Madison Hildebrand, a real estate professional who specializes in selling homes in Southern California, and also star of the Bravo’s “Million Dollar Listing” reality show. “People are more confident.”
Analysts also note that when the wealthy start buying, it often has a trickle down effect among middle and upper-income shoppers too.

New contruction? Here’s a buyer’s tip …
If you’re thinking of buying a new construction in your next home, you probably already know that every new home development will have its own sales staff. These people are often friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable about the newly built home. However, these folks work to sell this property only. The on-site staff of a builder knows the property as-well-as or better than anyone around and they are there to assist you but they work for the builder.
When in the market for a newly built home, it’s a good idea to employ your own advocate, an agent who does not work for the builder, to look out for your interests. We don’t work for the builder … we work for you. Our agents know the entire area, not just one property. We know the pitfalls and benefits of buying new, and best of all it won’t cost you one dime more than if you use the onsite staff. You have a right to representation:exercise that right today!
