Buckingham History & Neighborhoods Nearby
Buckingham was built in six phases from 1937 to 1953 by Allie Freed's Paramount Communities, with federally insured mortgages, as housing for middle-income households. Henry Wright designed the first phase with Albert Lueders and Allan Kamstra, who went on to design the later ones.
Arlington County named parts of Buckingham a local historic district in 1993, 1994 and 2007, and the Buckingham Historic District was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.
Buyers who like Buckingham often look at Ballston-Virginia Square to the north and Ashton Heights to the east, too. Which one fits is a matter of preference.
Buckingham Homes: Market & Home Types
Most Buckingham condos are one- and two-bedroom units in buildings from around 1940, often with hardwood floors and windows on more than one side. Each community sets its own monthly fee, and what that fee covers, such as heat, hot water or the building's exterior, changes what a unit is worth.
