You work hard. You play hard. You need a home that keeps up. Welcome to Unit 601 at The Continental a modern condo designed for the pace and style of your life in the heart of Ballston. Wake up in your light-filled bedroom, grab an outfit from the walk-in closet, and toss a load of laundry in the in-unit washer/dryer all before heading down to the 24/7 concierge to grab your Amazon package and coffee-to-go. The Ballston Metro is just two blocks away. You're downtown in minutes. Back home, the open-concept kitchen is ready for takeout nights or pre-game cocktails with friends. With granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a bar-height counter, it's made for both cooking and conversation. The bonus den gives you the flexibility to work from home, host a guest, or create the walk-in closet you've always wanted. Throw in the extra storage locker on the same level just down the hall (S-32) and you're fully loaded and ready for anything. On weekends, you're not stuck inside. You're on the rooftop terrace lounging by the firepit, grilling with friends, or cooling off in the rooftop pool.
