Vienna Home #1 on Annual Holiday Lights List

VIENNA, VA -- A Vienna home decorated for the holidays is ranked #1 on an annual holiday lights list compiled by Holly Zell.

Here's a description of the light display by Zell at 10203 Lawyers Road: "Very beautiful layers of blueish multicolored lights. Large decorated tree with groupings of animal figures in gated courtyard in front of house and around circle driveway. They have a zoo of lighted figures. Love the cactus tree in Santa hat and the animated dinosaurs along the driveway. Must be a great site looking down from 2nd floor windows. Park on Galloping Way and carefully cross Lawyers to view. Photos do not show true volume of lights. Unless they are LEDs, blue lights just don't photograph well."

Another Vienna home is also on the top list by Zell. Located at 128 Nutley St. NW, visitors are asked to view the display from the road and not step on the property, according to Zell. Here's the description:

"At corner with Windover Avenue. Very pretty with use of different colors for different objects...lots of blue lights outlining the house, green on garage. The lights are abundant and widespread but subtle.
I also like the white lights on the shopping center next door (The Village Green). The uneven roof lines look great outlined with the large tree in the center."
