Colonial charm in cozy Arlington neighborhood
Claremont is a quaint residential neighborhood in southwest Arlington that charms with its colonial revival architecture and tree-lined streets and attracts families with its ample parks and highly rated schools. The neighborhood is conveniently located near various retail centers with local restaurants mixed in, so residents have easy access to everything they might need. The commitment to colonial-inspired architecture makes walking its streets like traveling back in time, but with homes often offering updated interiors, residents don’t have to sacrifice modern amenities. “The community evolved post World War II,” says Realtor Joy Deevy, a native Northern Virginian with over 20 years of experience in the Washington metro area, who grew up frequenting the neighborhood’s Barcroft Park. “Many of the original homes are still present, including the Cape Cod, the colonial, and then in the 1960s, the ranch-style homes.”
Claremont is a great place to raise a family.
