Description

Once in a great while, a house comes along that’s simply better than the rest. This is that house.

With over 4,000 square feet of refined living in Seminary Hill’s Delta community, this 2018 Craftsman doesn’t just offer space—it delivers presence. Every line, finish, and sightline was designed to feel intentional. It’s the kind of home that quietly announces success without ever needing to shout. The exterior sets the tone: classic Craftsman architecture, crisp detailing, a detached two-car garage, and a manicured homesite framed by trees and backing to a park. There’s an ease to it. A confidence. You know before you step inside that this is something special.

Inside, soaring 9'+ ceilings and wide-plank hardwood floors create a bright, expansive canvas. Natural light pours through oversized windows, catching on soft neutral walls and elevating every room. The main level was designed for both grand entertaining and effortless everyday living—open, yet perfectly defined.

The kitchen is nothing short of showpiece caliber. A culinary centerpiece anchored by an oversized quartz island, complete with gas cooking, stainless appliances, custom cabinetry, and a walk-in pantry. It’s built for catered events, late-night conversations over wine, and holidays where everyone naturally gathers around the island. It flows seamlessly into the dining and living spaces, where a gas fireplace with glass doors adds warmth and understated luxury.

Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a private retreat in a boutique hotel with vaulted ceilings and privacy. Hardwood floors continue the sense of cohesion. The spa-inspired bath—marble flooring, granite double vanity, soaking tub, and glass-enclosed shower—invites you to slow down and exhale. Three additional bedrooms and beautifully appointed baths ensure comfort and flexibility without compromise. The upper-level laundry room is exactly where it should be—convenient and discreet.

The fully finished lower level transforms the home into an entertainer’s haven. A dramatic recreation lounge features a second gas fireplace and a quartz-topped wet bar worthy of hosting milestone celebrations or intimate gatherings. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath offer privacy and versatility—ideal for guests, creative space, or a sophisticated home office suite. With daylight windows and a walkout entrance, the lower level feels integrated, not tucked away. Outside, the patio extends the living experience. Backed by trees and enhanced with exterior lighting, the setting feels serene and intentional—an elegant backdrop for evening dinners or quiet mornings with coffee.

Location completes the story. With swift access to I-395, Quaker Lane, Metro within a few miles, and Reagan National Airport under 10 miles away, commuting is seamless. Duke Street’s dining and conveniences are moments away, while Old Town Alexandria’s waterfront, boutiques, and historic charm remain an easy escape. It’s a setting that balances connection and calm.

Built in 2018, the home combines modern efficiency—public water and sewer, central A/C, programmable thermostat, natural gas—with timeless craftsmanship. And with no HOA, there’s freedom to live fully on your terms. Six bedrooms. Four and a half baths. Three impeccably finished levels. A detached garage. Nearly 4,600 square feet of curated comfort. This isn’t just a move. It’s an arrival.
