Virginia, DC WOW Houses: Award Winner, Downtown History

Inasmuch that a so-called WOW house means different things to different people in Northern Virginia and DC, here's a veritable buffet line from which to pick and choose. Besides, price isn't everything. Just because a home costs less than a million bucks doesn't necessarily make it any less worthy of a WOW nod.

But in conjunction with Realtor.com, Patch has taken a look at all the WOW houses we presented over the past week and highlighted a few of the interesting finds. We're talking swimming pools, riverfront access, wine cellars, country club living and on and on. But Realtor.com also offers parcels of land, lots of land, in fact, for potential future WOW houses. Meanwhile, take a glance, if you will, at the following properties on the market.
