Here's a sneak peak inside of one of the coveted gems of Montebello and Alexandria VA. This is the place to live because this condo

• is within walking distance of the metro;
• enjoys all the benefits of Montebello's many amenities;
• has an jaw-dropping view of the city AND the Potomac;
• is more affordable than many condos offering much less.

The balcony has sweeping views of the Potomac south of Alexandria and the Woodrow Wilson Bridge.

The balcony also offers commanding views of the Carlyle District and Old Town Alexandria including the George Washington National Masonic Memorial.

It's difficult to tell from this picture, but seated at the desk in the den, one can easily see the Washington Monument and other landmarks in Washington DC.

That same den provides the perfect work-station for telecommuting or just browsing the web.

Light streams into the dining room in this unit.

The kitchen has more than enough room for a breakfast nook and the gourmet chef.

The bedroom is well served by a master bath and has a bedside TV for easy relaxing at the end of the day.
