Charming Townhome in Desirable Nethergate – A Peaceful Retreat Near D.C. Nestled in the picturesque and highly sought-after Nethergate community, this elegant 4-story townhome offers the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and convenience. Just minutes from the heart of D.C., it serves as a tranquil retreat while keeping you close to everything you need. Step inside to a bright, welcoming foyer that immediately draws your eye to the serene private backyard. The main level features a spacious living area with abundant natural light, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and custom built-in cabinetry. French doors open to a private, fenced brick patio—perfect for outdoor dining, gardening, or unwinding after a long day. This level also includes a convenient powder room, a generous coat closet, and a walk-in laundry room. The heart of the home is the open, gourmet kitchen – a chef’s dream - with ample cabinetry, beautiful white quartz countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. A rare bonus, the kitchen boasts a second wood-burning fireplace, adding warmth and character. The adjacent room offers flexibility—use it as a formal dining area, a cozy den for movie nights, or an extension of your entertainment space. Another powder room on this level enhances convenience. Upstairs, the elegant primary suite is a true retreat, featuring vaulted ceilings, a custom-designed closet, and a well-appointed en-suite bath. The second spacious bedroom is filled with natural light and includes a full wall of closet space. The lower level offers even more versatility with a second family room or recreation space, an additional full bath, and a large storage area. Whether you transform it into a media room, guest suite, fitness center, or home office, the possibilities are endless. Additional highlights include beautiful hardwood floors on three levels, elegant crown molding, neutral paint, and thoughtful updates throughout. The location is unbeatable—just minutes from Old Town’s charming boutiques, award-winning restaurants, and scenic waterfront parks. National Airport, the Pentagon, and National Landing are short drives, while Trader Joe’s, Harris Teeter, and major commuter routes like the GW Parkway and Route 1 are easily accessible. There are also two metro stations less than one mile – Braddock and Potomac Yards. This home is just two stoplights from D.C. and within walking distance of North Old Town’s newest restaurants and shops. Enjoy an award-winning Greek restaurant just around the corner, a convenience store and deli across the street, and quick access to the DASH bus and express bus into D.C. The newly opened Potomac Yard Metro Station, Potomac Yards, and Virginia Tech are also just a short distance away. Historic King Street is approximately one mile, and the Mount Vernon Trail and waterfront parks are just four blocks from your doorstep. Don’t miss the incredible opportunity to own this beautiful townhome in one of Alexandria’s most desirable locations!

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.
