Using the dynamic photo above it's easy to see how close Wilton House is to the metro. The building you see in front of you is Wilton House. If you scroll to the right, the garden-style condos next-door are known as Halstead at the Metro. As you continue to turn, you'll see the parking lot across the street. That parking lot is the parking for the Dunn Loring / Merrifield Metro Station.

Halstead at the Metro is found across the street from the Dunn Loring / Merrifield Metro near I-66. Residents of Halstead have a very easy commute because of proximity to Interstate 66, the Orange Line Metro and commuter routes like Route 50.

Halstead provides garden-style residences around a central courtyard. Because Halstead is newly-built most units have the upgrades and features that buyers have come to expect:

• granite countertops
• hardwood floors
• new appliances

Many units have balconies that overlook the courtyard and pool at the center of the community.  There is ample space for parking the garage. To check prices, view more photos and see a map click Halstead at the Metro.
