Exchange at Van Dorn Condos For Sale, Alexandria, VA

One of the largest residential complexes in Alexandria, Virginia is the Exchange at Van Dorn offering both apartment rentals and condos for sale. There’s 404 units here, with multiple buildings nestled into lush landscaping along with courtyards and pleasant walking paths. And while the garden-style setting may evoke older developments, this community is actually more recently built—delivered in 2003.

Located at 4840 Eisenhower Avenue, the Exchange at Van Dorn is in the rapidly evolving Landmark/Van Dorn community. The exterior style blends traditional Colonial Revival elements with a more contemporary flair. The one and two-bedroom floorplans are nice and roomy, ranging from 770 to 1,100 square feet. Large windows allow lots of natural light into these open space units, with combinations of hardwood floors and carpet, plus thick crown molding and private outdoor balconies. The kitchens are also worth noting with their granite counters and upscale appliances. Condos for sale at the Exchange at Van Dorn can be quite competitively priced, recently listing in the $200s and $300s.

Residents here have a ton of amenities to enjoy, with a swimming pool, a clubhouse with a billiards room, an indoor basketball court, outdoor picnic areas with grills, a large multilevel parking garage, walking trails and even a dog park!  Plus, there is shuttle service to the Van Dorn Metro Station. This attractive condominium community is very close to the Capital Beltway and also near to Cameron Run Regional Park, Hensley Park, Clermont Natural Park and Ben Brenman Park. That’s a lot of greenspace!

This large condo community is a short drive from the Landmark Mall which has long been slated for a wholesale makeover. Construction is currently planned to begin in 2017, with stores closing until the new unveiling. Envisioned as an upscale mixed-use experience in the vein of Fairfax’s Mosaic District, the new mall will include a town center and luxury residences, as well as restaurants, shops and entertainment.

Also close to the Exchange at Van Dorn is Cameron Station—a former army base transformed into upscale condos and townhouses with a small-town, 19th century architectural vibe. There’s other great stuff in the area as well, such as the Portner Brewhouse as well as the Port City Brewing Company—ready for craft beers galore?? And don’t forget Old Town Alexandria with its fine dining, entertainment and so much more.
