About this home
Welcome home to the quintessential 1920s bungalow in the heart of Alexandria—perfectly positioned on the coveted Del Ray/Rosemont border. Just a short stroll to the Braddock Road Metro Station, the vibrant boutiques and dining along Mount Vernon Avenue, and the charm of Old Town Alexandria, this home offers the ideal blend of historic character and modern convenience.
From the moment you arrive, the inviting front porch sets the tone—a perfect perch for morning coffee or evening relaxation. Inside, timeless details abound: warm wood floors, soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and beautifully preserved period charm.
The main level is designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, featuring a well appointed kitchen, elegant dining room, welcoming living room with a cozy fireplace surrounded by built-in bookcases, and a serene screened porch that extends your living space outdoors. A thoughtfully designed bump-out off the kitchen provides floor-to-ceiling pantry cabinetry, a stylish powder room, and direct access to the deck—making grilling and backyard gatherings seamless.
Upstairs, retreat to the spacious primary suite with an ensuite bath. A second ensuite bedroom features a full bath with traditional tub and walk-in closet. The third bedroom offers endless possibilities—create a luxurious dressing room, peaceful nursery, or inspiring home office. And for your convenience, an upper-level washer and dryer adds everyday ease.
The fully finished lower level expands your options with a generously sized bedroom, full bath, recessed lighting, and windows that invite in soft natural light—ideal for guests, recreation, or additional workspace.
Out back, enjoy your own private oasis: a fully fenced yard with lush green lawn, a large detached storage shed, and plenty of room to play or garden. Off-street parking on a quiet, non-through street adds both comfort and convenience.
With effortless commuting via Metro, VRE/Amtrak, and major routes to the Pentagon, Reagan National, DC, and Fort Belvoir, this exceptional home delivers location, lifestyle, and lasting charm—all in one picture-perfect package.
