The Plaza Condominiums is a mid-rise, low-density complex built in 1974 and organized over five stories with elevator access. Units are predominantly two-bedroom residences that mix traditional and open floor plans; interior finishes commonly include hardwood floors, crown moldings, recessed lighting, built-in storage and combinations of tub, stall and walk-in showers. Many homes feature private covered balconies, in-unit laundry or conveniently located stackable units, enlarged primary suites with dressing rooms and walk-in closets, and fireplaces in select homes. Common areas center on a landscaped interior courtyard with mature trees, extensive hardscape and walking paths. Resident amenities are broad and communal: outdoor pool, tennis courts, fitness center with sauna, clubhouse/party room, library/business center, play area, secure bike and storage rooms, and on-site management. Parking includes deeded garage spaces, surface guest parking and assigned spaces; some units convey an oversized garage spot and separate storage units. The property sits in Alexandria’s Seminary Hill/West End neighborhood near Inova Alexandria Hospital, major commuter routes (I‑395/I‑495), Metro bus stops and is minutes from Old Town, offering a suburban treed setting with city access. The association is pet-friendly with limits, maintains routine building upgrades (windows, hallways and elevators reported), and supports a lifestyle focused on recreation and commuter convenience.
