This is not your typical duplex! The current owners have modified nearly every part of this home—the result is a charming, cottage feel inside and out. The main floor has been completely opened up and features an airy living room, and spacious kitchen with space for a dining table. French doors lead to screened in porch with ceiling fan. The bedroom level has been reconfigured to include a walk-in closet and built-ins and a beautifully renovated bath with stone floors, dual vessel sinks and vanities, and walk in shower. Basement renovations have just finished and include new flooring, recessed lights and a second full bath with custom tile, new sink and fixtures. Outside, the lush front and back yards have multi-season plantings, fruit trees, herbs and flowers. There’s even a gas line and a grill that conveys. This home has many special details throughout including beadboard walls, Ocracoke ceilings, pocket doors and lots of nooks and crannies for storage.
The home is located in the Beacon Manor neighborhood, an established South Alexandria community that is within easy walking distance to public transportation to Huntington Metro, shopping, local schools, Little Hunting Park Swim and Tennis Club, and parks and playgrounds. Old Town is just minutes away.
