This is part of series of articles comparing the benefits of condos in close proximity to the Huntington Metro
In each of these articles I'm doing a head-to-head comparison of these complexes and then selecting a winner from each category. I'm making these selections based upon my personal opinion, and you might not agree with my opinion, but I've put it out there as a starting point for a home buyer's discussion.
If you want the most space in your condo, for the least amount of cash, then Huntington Club the pick from this category. Most Huntington Club one bedroom units sell for well-under $200k; many are currently less than $175k. Many Huntington Club two bedroom units sell for less than $250k, most for less than $200k. You can even find a three bedroom at Huntington Club for well under $300k. The rooms in these units are large and open. There is ample closet space. When one compares the price of the unit to the amount of living space you get, Huntington Club is the value buy at the Huntington Metro.
Hunting Creek Club is nicely proportioned. The rooms do not feel abbreviated. Even the studios at the Hunting Creek Club are larger than 1 bedrooms at some of the area's newest complexes.
Montebello also "feels" big compared to many newer condos. This is in part due to the floor plans, but the smaller 1 bedrooms at Montebello measure in at 850 sq ft.
As one might expect, the Midtowns of Alexandria---the newest condos in this lot---offer the least amount of space for the most amount of money.
