Charming Spacious Cape Cod on Quiet Cul-de-Sac
Welcome to 2913 Richmond Lane — a beautifully updated and expanded 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home tucked away on a peaceful cul-de-sac in the heart of Alexandria’s Northridge neighborhood. Just steps from Monticello Park, this property combines classic architectural details with modern updates, making it ideal for comfortable living and effortless entertaining.
The moment you arrive at the property, the inviting full-length front porch catches your eye. Featuring exotic hardwood floors, dual ceiling fans, and four craftsman-style battered columns, it offers the perfect place to unwind, greet guests, or enjoy the neighborhood atmosphere. Prefer sunshine? A serene front stone patio surrounded by lush landscaping offers another outdoor retreat.
Inside, the main level boasts a warm and welcoming living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and rich hardwood floors that continue throughout the top two levels. The adjacent formal dining room provides ample space for gatherings, while the main-level bedroom with a stunning en suite bath offers flexibility for guests, multi-generational living, or as a primary bedroom.
At the heart of the home is the kitchen/great room addition—a showstopper designed for everyday living and entertaining. Highlights include quartzite counters and a large island with seating for six, a deep enamel farmhouse sink, custom cabinetry, recessed lighting, and two polished nickel pendant lights. The kitchen opens to a cozy family room featuring a gas fireplace and direct access to the covered side deck outdoor living space overlooking the spacious reare yard.
Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, including a tranquil primary suite, and an updated hallway bath. The half landing staircase leading to the second level fosters a sense of privacy and separation to the space.
The lower level offers great versatility, with two separate living/playing areas—perfect for a media room, home office, or guest space. The large, carpeted recreation room in the rear addition features high ceilings and windows that fill the space with natural light. A large laundry and a storage room bring functionality to the space.
Out back, the yard is a private oasis with room to play, garden, or enjoy the outdoors. Several raised beds, mature plantings, and a charming brick retaining wall frame the space.
