Overview

Photos debut Thursday along with a "Happy Hour" Open house —get ready!
Just a quick stroll to Braddock Metro and only 1½ blocks from Mount Vernon Avenue, this three-level brick townhouse is right in the beating heart of Del Ray, named #2 hottest neighborhood by Northern Virginia Magazine! The charming front porch sets the tone, opening to a bright, airy main level where gleaming hardwoods and an easy flow make hosting feel effortless.
The living and dining spaces blend seamlessly into an updated kitchen dressed in rich navy cabinetry, marble backsplash, and smart built-ins that prove style and function can, in fact, get along. Out back, a sun-soaked addition steals the show with an expanded window, custom banquet seating (with storage + fresh custom cushion), and the perfect backdrop for long dinners with friends. Step onto the deck, enjoy the fenced yard (garden blooms coming this spring), and savor the unicorn-level bonus of two off-street parking spaces.
Upstairs offers two bedrooms and a refreshed full bath with classic subway tile and pedestal sink—timeless for a reason. The finished lower level brings the flex: a beautifully renovated full bath, laundry closet, Murphy bed for guests or office life, exterior access, and generous storage. Del Ray charm, dialed all the way up!
This home’s central location puts you just steps from The Avenue’s beloved shops, restaurants, and cafés, while also close to Potomac Yard, the YMCA, Saturday's Farmer's Market, and everyday conveniences like Aldi and CVS. Tucked just far enough from the bustle to feel purely residential, yet perfectly positioned for commuters—approximately one mile to the Braddock Road Metro with easy access to Route 1, the GW Parkway, National Airport, the Pentagon, Crystal City, and Amazon HQ2—this is Del Ray living at its best!
