Welcome to 5227 Ballycastle Circle, a fabulous brick-front end-unit Westcott model backing to trees on a quiet street in Alexandria’s popular Kingstowne. This home is bright and cheerful with all the light streaming in from three sides and features a box-bay window in the breakfast room and a classic bay window in the dining room. You’ll also appreciate the many modern light fixtures throughout. There are dazzling wide-plank floors on the main level. The impressive eat-in kitchen has rich cabinetry, stainless appliances, sleek granite countertops with an overhang for bar stool seating, recessed lighting and a useful pass-through to the living room. Chair rail, crown molding and a classy chandelier give the separate dining room a feeling of elegance. The living room also has crown molding plus recessed lights and a gas fireplace with a detailed wood mantel. Step out through double doors to the awesome deck refinished in 2023 overlooking trees - perfect for that indoor/outdoor lifestyle! Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and 2 full baths. The owner’s suite has a soaring vaulted ceiling and walk-in closet with organizers (custom design was new in 2023) plus an en-suite bath with a two-sink vanity, jetted deep-soaking tub and separate shower. The well-lit lower level features the rec room with the second fireplace, a powder room and walks up to the fully-fenced rear yard. The furnace and sump pump were replaced in 2025, the water heater was new in 2024 and the roof and skylight window were new in 2020. This beautiful home comes with the endless list of Kingstowne amenities - pools, gyms, community centers, sport courts, tot lots, 12 miles of walking trails and more! It’s also close to two Metro stops, two town centers and all commuter routes!

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
