Bluemont Homes for Sale

Bluemont is a large Arlington neighborhood south of Interstate 66. Its parks offer many things to do, making it ideal for those who like to get outside. In fact, the community’s western edge consists solely of parkland. Several local and regional trail systems run through the neighborhood: Bluemont Junction Trail, Four Mile Run Trail, Custis Trail, and the 45-mile Washington & Old Dominion Railroad Trail. Bon Air Park features ornamental gardens, while Bluemont Park has sports facilities and playgrounds. Most of Bluemont’s housing was built around World War II, and many residents have torn down and rebuilt the neighborhood’s original cottages, Cape Cods and Colonial Revivals. New Traditionals and contemporary-style residential properties stand in their place, creating a diverse housing stock. Restaurants, like La Union and King of Koshary, line Wilson Boulevard, and shopping options are a short drive away. Students attend highly-rated schools, including Ashlawn Elementary, Swanson Middle and Washington Liberty High. Commuters to D.C., about 6 miles away, have access to the Ballston-MU Metro station, less than a mile away, and Interstate 66.
