About this home
Choose between Falls Church City or Arlington County Schools! Welcome to 968 N Rochester Street in Madison Manor, an exceptional, deceptively spacious residence in the heart of North Arlington offering over 4,440 finished square feet across four thoughtfully designed levels. Set on a fantastic quarter-acre-plus lot, this move-in ready home blends everyday comfort with standout spaces for entertaining, multigenerational living, and modern convenience. From the moment you step inside, you’ll appreciate the home’s scale and flexibility. The expansive, chef-inspired kitchen is the centerpiece featuring a five-burner gas cooktop with proper venting, wall oven, built-in microwave, dishwasher, trash compactor, and abundant cabinetry perfectly suited for hosting gatherings both large and small. Multiple living and dining areas flow seamlessly, creating an inviting atmosphere for entertaining. Upstairs, the generous primary suite offers a true retreat, complete with a spa-like bath and multiple closets. In total, the home includes five bedrooms, three full baths, and one half bath, providing ample space for family, guests, and work-from-home needs. The fully finished lower level with its own private side entrance functions beautifully as an in-law or au pair suite, or even a potential rental opportunity. Outdoors, the property truly shines. A substantial hardscaped entertaining area connects to a gazebo and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, creating the perfect setting for al fresco dining and weekend gatherings. The expansive upper yard features a sandbox, tot lot, and two storage sheds, plenty of room for play, gardening, or future customization. Additional highlights include an attached one-car garage with a 240V EV charging plug, multiple washers and dryers for added convenience, and flexible living spaces throughout that make this home “bigger than it looks” in every sense. One of this property's most unique aspects is its dual jurisdiction offering the rare opportunity to choose between the highly sought-after Arlington County school pyramid (including Yorktown High School) or Falls Church City schools (including the newly constructed Meridian High School). Buyers are encouraged to verify details through both Arlington County (Tax ID: 11-041-002) and Falls Church City (Tax ID: 53-218-024). Ideally located less than a mile to the East Falls Church Metro, with quick access to I-66, I-495, Routes 50, 29, and 7, commuting to the Pentagon, Washington, D.C., and beyond is effortless. This is a one-of-a-kind property offering space, flexibility, and lifestyle—inside and out. Be sure to explore the photos, 3D walkthrough, and floor plans to fully appreciate all this home has to offer. Open House: Saturday the 9th from 1–3 PM. Also listing in Arlington as VAAR2072690....
