Clarendon, VA Homes For Sale

As one of Arlington, Virginia’s most popular neighborhoods, Clarendon offers great restaurants, entertainment and sought-after homes for sale. Given the urban nature of the community in general, you might be surprised to find that detached single-family houses are still in such evidence. But they are—wonderful old Victorians, Craftsman and even some Contemporary styles, nestled happily on tree-lined streets to the north and south of the main boulevards.

Often referred to as Clarendon-Courthouse (due to the nearby courthouse, naturally), this awesome cosmopolitan neighborhood became more widely developed after the end of the Civil War, especially after the arrival of intersecting trolley lines. The new commercial corridor led to the opening of Sears Roebuck and J.C. Penney stores. This also meant easy access to kit homes from the Sears Roebuck Modern Homes department. 

In fact, all you had to do was load the materials onto a truck, dump them off at your lot and start swinging a hammer. One of the best selections of these early twentieth century “Craftsman” designs can be found right here in Clarendon, ranging from cute little bungalows to larger Victorian homes for sale. You’ll also find new custom construction that imitates some of the distinctive Sears models. To begin searching Clarendon, VA homes for sale, have a look at the MLS listings featured below:
