Property Description
Welcome to 1279 N Van Dorn St, a beautifully upgraded townhouse-style condo in the sought-after Parkside at Alexandria community. This two-level gem effortlessly combines modern updates with the charm of a vibrant, amenity-rich neighborhood.
Step inside to discover a light-filled living space with gleaming hardwood floors and a warm and inviting atmosphere. The open-concept main level flows seamlessly into the updated kitchen, featuring stainless steel appliances, and a floating kitchen island that will convey with the home.
Upstairs, you'll find a spacious primary suite with ample closet space and a tastefully refreshed bathroom, showcasing sleek finishes and a spa-like feel. The second bedroom is equally inviting, ideal for guests, a home office, or both.
Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, this home boasts a host of recent upgrades that enhance both style and comfort. Enjoy the peace of mind of a new water heater (2018) and HVAC system (2020). The refreshed bathrooms (2025) bring a modern touch, while new carpeting on the stairs and gorgeous hardwood floors on the main and upper levels elevate the interior. The elegant wrought iron banister rails add a touch of sophistication, and the newly installed stacked washer and dryer (2026) provide ultimate convenience. Every detail has been carefully considered to create a truly inviting space!
Outdoors, a spacious patio provides the perfect spot for grilling or unwinding after a long day, and the community amenities are just around the corner. Take advantage of the large outdoor pool, clubhouse, fitness center, and tot lots.
With easy access to I-395, the Pentagon, Old Town Alexandria, and Washington, D.C., commuting is a breeze. Plus, you're just minutes from the nearby shopping, dining, and entertainment options at Shirlington Village and Bradlee Center.
