A few miles outside Alexandria’s Old Town lays River Towers, high-rise condominiums that combine small town, rural living with proximity to Northern Virginia’s largest cities.River Towers is near the George Washington Parkway and the Potomac River; plus, it’s a short bike ride, walk or bus trip to the Huntington Metro Station.
However, just because it’s a bit tucked away from bustling city life doesn’t mean it lacks some of Northern Virginia’s best services and amenities. River Towers has an outdoor pool, on-site businesses and market, exercise facilities, private garden plots and a playground. Parks surround three sides of River Towers and contain jogging paths and hiking trails for those who enjoy scenic outdoor activities.

river towers: Pie Social with the Alexandria Fun with Friends group - 10/20/09 06:52 AM

The Pie Social was a big hit with members of the Alexandria Fun with Friends group. Members pitched in to bring pies and a supporting cast of whipped cream, milk, coffee and teas. The group relaxed with a few games and chatted the evening away. I tried to taste them all but there were just too many and they were just too good. I definitely look forward to the next time around with this one.

The event was held at the River Towers Club Room, just outside Old Town near the Potomac in New Alexandria. About twenty locals, … (0 comments)

river towers: Washer and Dryer in the Unit? - 08/25/09 07:16 AM
This week I was in a condo selling for over a million dollars.  It was a beautiful condominium home with excellent views, a state of the art kitchen and all the upgrades one might expect ... except the unit didn't have a washer and dryer.

Because my office is in River Towers, and we also serve Belle View, I often confront the question of a washer and dryer in the unit. (Neither River Towers nor Belle View have laundry in the unit.) I've talked to the older residents of River Towers about this and surprisingly many of them resist the … (9 comments)

river towers: New plantings at River Towers - 08/08/09 05:47 AM

Cities are wealth-generators. That is to say, good jobs and opportunities are found in cities like Alexandria, Fairfax and Arlington. Though we all enjoy wealth opportunities, many of us don't enjoy concrete and asphalt. There is something to be said for the greenery of the rural living. Even in New York City, folks enjoy Central Park. If you're one of those folks who need to live within easy commute of Washington D.C., Alexandria or Arlington, but you also need your little piece of nature, then you may owe yourself a visit to River Towers.

river towers: Tour of condos around $200,000 near Alexandria VA - 11/24/08 06:23 AM
This weekend I toured a number of condos with a client who was prequalified at around $200k. On her budget, she can afford a fixer-upper townhouse in a neighborhood like Bucknell Manor. She briefly considered the idea of buying a duplex townhouse. The idea of a duplex in a quiet 1950's neighborhood is quite appealing. The reality of owning that townhouse involves maintenance and upkeep that a young single gal probably wouldn't enjoy.
So instead we turned to focus on one and two bedroom condos, preferably under $200k. She has a number of choices, all in decent neighborhoods and with an … (0 comments)
