Property Description
OFFER DEADLINE 4PM EST Tuesday June 30. Four-level semi-detached home with a large fenced backyard and no HOA, just two blocks to Metro, Clarendon, and Ballston. Move in and enjoy exceptional value today, continue improving it into a home worth $1M, or hold it as a rental with strong long-term investment returns. Zoned for three of Arlington's highest-rated schools: Arlington Science Focus Elementary, Dorothy Hamm Middle, and Washington-Liberty High School.
WHAT MAKES THIS HOME STAND OUT? Only the second home listed this year in the Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor priced under $1M that offers a yard and is within a 15-minute walk of Metro (1226 Lincoln is a 7-minute walk). No HOA means no monthly fees and no association restrictions on property use. Recent improvements include a brand-new roof with CertainTeed Landmark 30-year architectural shingles; an expanded and refreshed lower-level bathroom; new LVP flooring on the lower level; fresh interior and exterior paint; and refinished hardwood floors upstairs.
Spanning four levels, the home offers flexible living space for up to four bedrooms. The kitchen can be opened to the dining room (ask the listing agent for pricing) to create a more modern layout and add significant value. Residents enjoy easy street parking thanks to Zone 6 permit restrictions on both sides of the street, while a shared driveway provides off-street parking when needed.
WHAT MAKES THIS LOCATION STAND OUT? Exceptional walkability from a quiet neighborhood surrounded by $2M+ homes. Virginia Square Metro (Orange and Silver Lines) is just two blocks away. Giant grocery store and the highly acclaimed Rocklands Barbeque are directly across the street. Walk to dozens of restaurants, bars, coffee shops, gyms, and shops throughout Ballston and Clarendon in ten minutes or less.
Recreation and community amenities are equally impressive, including Quincy Park (courts, fields, and green space), the Custis Trail (connected to Arlington's world-class trail network), Washington-Liberty High School's track and public aquatics center, featuring thirteen 25-meter lanes, and Arlington Central Library, where residents can borrow everything from yard tools to a 3D printer at no cost, all within two blocks.
Enjoy quick access by public transit or car to Washington DC, the Pentagon, Amazon HQ2, Reagan National Airport (DCA), Virginia Hospital Center, Tysons, and the Potomac River.
