Listing details

Beautifully reimagined and extensively renovated, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath split-level offers exceptional space, rare premium finishes, and an unbeatable location in one of North Arlington's most coveted neighborhoods — all inside the Beltway with views stretching over the neighborhood and Potomac River valley. From the moment you arrive, the southern exposure, mature magnolia, red maple, and prolific fruit trees — fig, peach, and apple — create irresistible curb appeal. Inside, nearly 2,800 square feet unfolds across three finished levels, anchored by a gourmet chef's kitchen that would impress even the most discerning buyer. The fully renovated kitchen centers on a professional 48-inch Thermador dual-fuel range and steam oven, with a complementary Thermador hood, built-in bottom-freezer refrigerator, and dishwasher — the complete Thermador suite. White cabinetry, quartz counters, a striking wood-look tile backsplash, skylight, and warm hardwood floors create a kitchen equally suited for weeknight dinners and weekend entertaining. The home's true showpiece is the stunning glass sunroom addition — a vaulted, light-flooded sanctuary with exposed painted rafters, skylights, floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides, and a French Anderson door opening to the private patio and outdoor gas grill hookup. Whether it's morning coffee or evening gatherings, this space seamlessly brings the outside in. The living room and dining room provide generous formal entertaining space, while two wood-burning fireplaces — one on the main level, one on the lower level — add classic warmth and character throughout. Both bathrooms were fully renovated​ with designer tile, modern vanities, and contemporary fixtures. The primary bath features marble subway tile and a glass-enclosed shower; the renovated hall bath showcases crisp white subway tile, a soaking tub, and gold hardware accents. The lower level features a spacious family room and fourth bedroom or flex space, with all-new flooring replacing dated parquet — part of a comprehensive 2026 interior refresh that includes fresh paint throughout, updated door hardware, and multiple electrical upgrades. The attached two-car garage (27' x 22') provides exceptional parking and workshop space. The transformed backyard features a substantial retaining wall creating a generous level entertaining terrace with raised garden beds — perfect for outdoor movie nights, game days, and al fresco living. Attic insulation, tankless water heater, new HVAC unit (2023), updated sewer injector pump, and new garage door round out nearly $200,000 in documented improvements. Location is unmatched. Situated in the beloved Waycroft-Woodlawn neighborhood, residents enjoy quick access to Gulf Branch, Potomac Heritage trail​, Georgetown along the canal​, Ballston Quarter, the Custis Trail, Lacey Woods Park, I-66, and the Ballston Metro (Orange and Silver lines). Arlington County Public Schools serve the neighborhood, consistently ranked among Virginia's very best. Easy commutes to DC, Tysons, and the Pentagon make this the ideal inside-the-Beltway address.
