New Wilton Woods Listing


6108 Stegen Drive, Alexandria, VA  22310     $560,000

Wonderful new listing coming this week.  It's on a nice street, near Metro, nicely maintained and updated.

The market is strong with low inventory, and this one should be very appealing to buyers!

Spring is coming!

Hard to believe that we just had snow. . . again.  You can see the daffodils sticking up out of the snow.  I think we've finally hit spring now.  Love the daffodils in the garden and in the house.

I don't like to cut many daffodils from the garden, so I just go to the Safeway and buy about 5 bunches of them, stuff them into a MacKenzie-Childs vase, and then it feels like spring.

You can see MacKenzie-Childs black and white plates on the kitchen wall.  Now I love their new parchment color in the enamel ware.  Bob gave me this vase for Christmas.  Love it.

Coldwell Banker Ad

Check this link to see the new Coldwell Banker ad--I think it has a nice tone.  This spring selling season here in Northern Virginia should be strong--great interest rates and demand is strong because of low inventory.
