Description
Welcome to 1409 Van Valkenburgh Lane, a beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated four-level townhome in a quiet portion of Potomac Yard with easy walkability to Del Ray and Old Town Alexandria.
Tucked on a serene, low-traffic street with wonderful neighbors, this modern residence offers exceptional versatility, abundant storage, and two inviting outdoor spaces, including a stunning top-level terrace with a rare double-sided indoor/outdoor fireplace.
The entry level features a private bedroom with full bathroom, ideal for guests, au pair, or in-law suite, or a home office, along with access to the two-car garage, complete with an upgraded epoxy-coated floor and the ability to easily add an EV charging station.
Upstairs, the main level, the true heart of the home, boasts an open living, dining, and kitchen layout filled with abundant natural light. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, ample custom cabinetry, a large breakfast bar, and a charming balcony just off the kitchen. Enjoy coffee, wine or al fresco dining directly off the kitchen. A powder room and gleaming hardwood floors complete this level. Additional updates include designer lighting with upgraded dimmers.
The bedroom level offers two additional bedrooms, each with their own full bathroom, perfect for privacy. The primary suite includes two large custom closets and a generous spa-inspired en-suite bath with a double vanity and new faucets. The second upper-level bedroom features a high-quality Murphy bed with a built-in desk that maximizes space and versatility.
The showstopping fourth floor is perfect for entertaining or relaxing. This loft-level recreation room includes a wet bar, a washer/dryer area, and opens to the expansive rooftop terrace, made even more special by the indoor/outdoor double-sided gas fireplace, a rare and luxurious touch. This level benefits from a new HVAC system serving levels 3 and 4, paired with Honeywell thermostats for dual-zone efficiency. Additional home updates include an alarm system and ceiling fans in the loft, living room, and all bedrooms.
