Lee High School
Lee is for Springfield Lovers
by Marina Brito, Realtor®, Home by School Specialist
The Lee HS boundary is located in the heart of Springfield, VA. The boundary is divided through the middle by I-95, and it includes the impressive Springfield Interchange (the intersection of I-95 with I-495 and I-395).
Within the boundary, one can also find major arteries such as the Fairfax County Parkway and the Franconia-Springfield Parkway. The last station on the Blue line on the Metro, the Franconia-Springfield station, is located along the Franconia Springfield Parkway.

Finding a home by school can be a challenge
If you have tried to find a home by school before, you have probably found that it’s a challenge to cross-reference homes for sale on a typical home search website with their assigned school.
Simply finding homes “near” the school won’t do
The issue with typical home search websites is that they only display homes by city or zip code. Some of them display homes “near” the school. Well, that won’t do you any good since school boundaries span cities, zip codes, and just being “near” the school doesn’t mean that the home belongs to that boundary.
You want a home INSIDE the Lee high school boundary. Not just “near” it…
