More about condos and Coops with Balconies in Washington Metro
It's one of the most common questions that prospective condo shoppers ask of real estate agents. Does a particular unit have its own balcony, or is there a private outdoor space of any kind? This is especially true in urban environments, and it’s easy to understand why. A recent government study showed that access to both public and private greenspaces was beneficial to people’s health and happiness. But we don’t need a research paper to confirm obvious truths. When you’re living and working in a crowded city, and your home lies within the walls of a glass and steel tower, it sure is nice to be able to step outside to your own little Shangri-la, even if it’s simply a balcony with some planters and lounge chairs.
Condos with balconies aren’t necessarily rare. A recent examination showed over 11,000 active listings with such features in the greater Washington Metro area. You’ll find some of the most coveted properties with private outdoor spaces in high end neighborhoods such as Georgetown, the Southwest Waterfront, the West End, Bethesda, Rosslyn, and Old Town Alexandria just to name a few. Some balconies are fairly small, and often described as Juliet balconies, named for the small platform on which Shakepeare’s heroine stands as she calls out for her Romeo. And then there are the truly impressive sweeping terraces with amazing views of the Potomac River at places like the iconic midcentury modern Watergate in Foggy Bottom or the skyscraping Turnberry Tower in Arlington’s Rosslyn community.
Private spaces don’t have to have birds’ nest views in order to be soothing and satisfying. Take the case of ground level patios, whether open to sunny lawns or surrounded by fencing or walls in order to provide a welcome sense of sanctuary. A patio can also be a wonderful place to barbecue and enjoy outdoor get-togethers with friends. But there is also nothing that quite compares to that pinnacle of upscale living, a penthouse with its own private roof deck. Here you can have it all, with panoramic vistas, and glittering evening social events.
When it comes right down to it, a space outside four walls can be a wonderful thing, no matter whether its small and intimate or big enough to host a fundraiser. From morning coffee to evening libations, or when you just want to sit and chill, condominiums and cooperatives with balconies, terraces, patios, and decks, are a nice treat.
