Space, light, and an exceptional Ballston location come together in this beautifully refreshed two-bedroom, two-bath corner residence at The Continental. With 1,296 square feet, newly painted interiors, new stainless-steel appliances, and new bedroom carpeting, unit 711 offers an inviting home with generous proportions and an open, flowing layout. A long entry foyer creates a welcoming arrival before opening into the expansive living and dining areas, where light wood floors and windows on two sides create a bright, airy feel. A gas fireplace with a crisp white surround anchors the living room accented by beautiful crown molding, providing a sophisticated, yet cozy setting for quiet evenings at home. A glass door opens to the private northeast-facing balcony, an ideal spot for morning coffee or a little fresh air above the neighborhood. The open kitchen keeps you connected to the living space, whether preparing dinner or hosting friends. Warm wood cabinetry pairs with black granite countertops and new stainless steel appliances, including a gas range. A breakfast bar illuminated by pendant lighting offers casual seating, while the adjacent dining area provides room to gather around the table. Both spacious bedrooms feature new carpeting, large windows, and walk-in closets for ample storage. The primary suite includes a dual entry bathroom with a broad vanity, generous counter space, and a tub-and-shower combination. The second bedroom offers flexibility for guests, a home office, or everyday living, with a second full bathroom completing the layout. One conveniently located parking space, #66, conveys. Life at The Continental extends well beyond your front door. Enjoy a rooftop pool, rooftop fitness center, skylounge, business center, private theater, and the convenience of a 24-hour concierge. Just three blocks from the Ballston Metro and close to the neighborhood’s restaurants, shopping, and entertainment, this spacious corner residence puts the best of Ballston within easy reach.
Ballston-Virginia Square, located between Clarendon and East Falls Church, is a high-rise and transit-oriented Arlington neighborhood with a Metro spine and a walkable retail grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Wilson Blvd and N Glebe Rd, where coffee counters, chef-driven dining rooms, and small storefronts spill light onto wide sidewalks. Ballston Quarter sets a modern indoor-outdoor rhythm, while Arlington Cinema & Drafthouse keeps a local marquee feel. Virginia Square’s academic edge shows at George Mason University’s Arlington Campus, framed by glass towers and mid-century apartment blocks. Pocket parks and the Custis Trail stitch the streets to bikes and joggers. Metro entrances at Ballston-MU and Virginia Square anchor daily movement.
