Forget the long wish list. This season there’s only one thing worth unwrapping, and it’s three blocks from Mount Vernon Ave. (Cue Mariah.) Saturday mornings start with a stroll to the Del Ray Farmers Market, coffee in hand, and a slow wander down Mount Vernon Ave before heading home to your townhouse. Every project is already done, so your weekends stay yours, with no house projects on the to-do list. The entry level welcomes you with an oversized bonus room ready for movie nights, a home gym, or an office, plus a 1-car garage with off-street parking and room left over for bikes and storage. On the main level, refinished hardwood floors and fresh paint bring a warmth that makes everything feel brand new. The living and dining rooms flow together around a wood-burning fireplace with built-ins beside it, the perfect spot to settle in on a chilly night. The kitchen got the full glow-up with new quartz countertops, a new sink and faucet, freshly painted cabinets with matte black hardware, and newer appliances. New modern lighting throughout, including a statement chandelier over the dining table, ties it all together, and a powder room rounds out the level. Step outside to your own little wildwood: a private patio tucked against the trees, made for sitting still and soaking up the quiet. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are generously sized, the primary suite has room to spread out, and the baths have been updated. Life in Del Ray, Alexandria, Virginia, means a calendar full of neighborhood events like Art on the Ave, the holiday tree lighting, and the candy cane bar crawl, all within walking distance. When it’s time to venture out, Old Town is about 10 minutes away, DCA is 10 to 15, and Washington, DC is 15 to 20, with quick access to I-395 and the Braddock Road and Potomac Yard Metro stations about 1.5 miles away. Let's make your wish come true. All this townhouse needs is you.
