About Lyon Park

Living in Lyon Park means you’re tucked into a quiet, residential neighborhood while still being just a mile from Clarendon and the Metro. Whether you’re hopping on the Orange or Silver line for a quick ride into D.C., or driving out on Route 50 or I-66, commuting is simple. What makes Lyon Park different is the pace — less noise, more green space, and a real sense of community. Neighbors walk their dogs, kids ride bikes on tree-lined streets, and weekends often spill over into Lyon Park’s namesake green space. It’s city access with a small-town feel.

Real Estate in Lyon Park

Homes in Lyon Park tell the story of Arlington’s growth. You’ll find everything from charming 1920s bungalows with wide porches to newer builds designed for modern living. Colonial styles are common, often with mature landscaping that gives each block a timeless look.

Most homes here are single-family, with prices usually starting around $900,000 and climbing past $2 million for larger or fully renovated properties. A few townhomes and condos exist, but the neighborhood is really known for its detached homes and yards. Because inventory is limited and demand is strong, homes don’t sit on the market long — especially if they’re walkable to schools and Clarendon. If you’re looking for a house that blends character with convenience, Lyon Park delivers.

 Outdoor Access and Green Space

The heart of the neighborhood is Lyon Park itself — a gathering spot with a playground, basketball court, picnic tables, and a community center that hosts everything from seasonal festivals to neighborhood meetings. Families, dog owners, and longtime residents all cross paths here, which is why it feels like the anchor of the community.

For more outdoor time, trails like the Arlington Boulevard Trail and Custis Trail are accessible from Lyon Park, providing biking and walking paths that stretch through Arlington and beyond. These routes support both exercise and alternate commuting methods. Sidewalks and tree-lined streets also encourage casual walking within the neighborhood. With several recreational areas nearby, it’s easy to maintain an active lifestyle without needing to leave the community.

Schools Serving Lyon Park

The school district supports student needs with academic enrichment, transportation access, and extracurriculars.  

Schools are one of the big reasons families choose Lyon Park. Parents appreciate the combination of highly rated programs and the convenience of having schools nearby. It’s one more way the neighborhood supports families looking for stability and connection.

Shopping and Dining in Lyon Park

Though primarily residential, Lyon Park benefits from its proximity to the Clarendon district’s shopping and dining options. Residents can walk or drive to an array of cafes, restaurants, and grocery stores located just blocks away. Dining includes spots like Ambar for Balkan cuisine, Lyon Hall for European fare, and Pete’s Apizza for quick takeout. This variety makes it easy to find meals for any occasion.

For grocery and essentials, Whole Foods Market and Trader Joe’s are nearby, along with pharmacies and specialty stores. Local retailers, including bookshops and bike stores, offer services not typically found in larger commercial zones. The short distance to Clarendon provides access to everything from home goods to personal care services. Lyon Park residents can enjoy a quiet home setting without sacrificing convenience.
