***OPEN HOUSES FRIDAY AND SUNDAY***Living this close to Old Town Alexandria is a lifestyle rich with convenience and culture. But it's rare that it also comes with a cool contemporary modern home like this one! The charm of the picket fenced front yard is just the beginning of pride as you pull into the driveway. Of course, you may just want to bike to the King Street metro instead. Crowd favorites like Smoking Kow, Rockland's BBQ, or Pepe's Pizzeria may be great in an emergency, but when you see this kitchen, I bet you will frequent the nearby grocery store instead. This home is "the one" since a major renovation with meticulous detail and finishes - you just know it's something special as soon as you walk into the family room with soaring ceilings and a wood burning fireplace that calls you to gather or lounge with your laptop. You can see all the way through the elegant dining area, into the kitchen so everyone has a front row seat to the sounds and smells that memories are made of. Weekend brunch, chocolate chip cookies, or even a dinner party that can flow right out to the side deck. Head downstairs one level for a sun filled Rec Room and a second fireplace, perfect for game day, movie night, play time, or home school. A bathroom with a shower could make it a great option for guests or a workout too. Need a quiet place to read, think or work? Down one more level is a private office with built in bookcases. When it's time to call it a night, retreat to the top floor with your choice of three stylish bedrooms and two full baths. The oversized back deck and fully fenced back yard surrounded by woods will be waiting for you and your morning coffee.

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by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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