Nestled in the coveted River Crest community, this all-brick residence seamlessly blends timeless elegance with modern convenience. A beautifully maintained exterior welcomes you, with a paver-accented driveway leading to the two-car garage, while lush landscaping and mature trees provide a picturesque setting. Thoughtfully expanded and beautifully updated, this home offers an inviting atmosphere, abundant natural light, and a layout designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Inside, hardwood floors extend throughout the main level, enhancing the warmth and character of the space. The heart of the home is the stunning, renovated kitchen—featuring granite countertops, professional-grade appliances, and a casual dining area. The kitchen flows into an oversized dining room, where a wood-burning fireplace creates the perfect ambiance for hosting gatherings. The adjoining Great Room, a striking addition to the original home, offers floor-to-ceiling windows and seamless access to the backyard oasis. Step outside to a private retreat with a patio, pool, and serene sitting area, all surrounded by lush greenery. This level also hosts the primary suite, complete with a private bath, along with three additional bedrooms serviced by a well-appointed hall bath. The lower level is designed for both relaxation and entertainment, featuring a spacious rec room with a built-in wet bar, a projector with a 120" screen for movie nights, and a cozy wood stove that adds warmth and ambiance. After a long day, unwind in the private sauna, located just off the full bathroom. This level also includes a laundry room and direct access to the ground-level two-car garage, which is equipped with an EV charging station for added convenience. Sustainability meets efficiency with owned and fully paid-for solar panels, significantly reducing monthly energy costs. Recent updates include fresh interior and exterior paint (2025), new Great Room windows (2024), a boiler and copper piping (2023), a complete kitchen renovation (2022), and an HVAC system (2018). Located just minutes from the GW Parkway, this home offers an unbeatable Arlington lifestyle with easy access to Washington D.C., Reagan National Airport, and Tysons Corner. Enjoy nearby shopping, dining, parks, walking and biking trails, and premier golf and country clubs. Served by top-rated schools—Jamestown Elementary, Williamsburg Middle, and Yorktown High—this is a rare opportunity to own a home that perfectly balances comfort, convenience, and charm.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
