3515 Washington Blvd

A mid-20th-century, five-story condominium complex built in 1960 that primarily contains one-bedroom units along with larger two-bedroom layouts. The exterior presents a low-rise, garden-style profile with mature trees, a shared backyard green and sidewalks linking to nearby blocks. Interiors range from original finishes to periodically updated kitchens and baths; common apartment features include open and traditional floor plans, parquet or wood flooring, built-ins, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, walk-in and double closets, and a mix of galley and island kitchen arrangements. On-site building services and shared spaces are substantial for its era: an elevator-served lobby, community party room, fitness center, outdoor pool and grilling area, laundry rooms on each floor, and secure storage cages. The association covers utilities and provides parking (dedicated and guest passes) plus exterior lighting and secure access. The pet policy permits one pet up to about 40 pounds. The setting emphasizes convenience with immediate access to sidewalks, street lighting, nearby parks, and a large private parking lot for residents preferring to keep a car. Located within walking distance of Virginia Square, Ballston and Clarendon, the property functions as a transit-oriented, value-focused option. Its combination of communal amenities, inclusive HOA utility coverage, VA and FHA approvals, and proximity to grocery, library, restaurants, and Metro stations supports an in-town lifestyle with reduced dependence on a vehicle.
