New Condominiums for Saled in the Odyssey Condominium

On Friday of last week I went to view two condos at the Odyssey Condominium building, which is located on 2001 15th St. North, Arlington, VA. It is about 2 blocks from the Courthouse Metro. There were two 2bedroom units for sale for about the same price, but wow, were they different. The first unit was on the front of the building overlooking Rosslyn on the 10th floor. The owners put in light wood flooring, beautiful white granite counter tops, light wood cabinetry, and a modern white fireplace. Although the unit itself was only 1125 sq.ft., but felt much bigger. The bathrooms were done very modern, with frosted glass, and upgrades throughout. I was very impressed with the condo, and thought it was priced very fairly at $599,000. This condo would be perfect for a buyer wanting to live in the unit as it has all the upgrades, or because of the terrific price, would be perfect as an investment property. The other condo, not so much. It was a 2 bedroom unit as well, but did not have ANY upgrades, felt very cramped, dark, and worn down. At 975 sq.ft., this unit had a much more "dorm like" feel to it, and I was not impressed by it at all. Also, being on the 4th floor did not give the condo any views. Priced only $20,000 less, lets just say this one will be sitting until the other one sells. And knowing the extreme interest the 10th floor unit has gotten in only the past month, it's not going to last long.
