3408 Alabama Avenue, Alexandria, VA 22305

Property Description

Set on a charming street in the heart of Beverley Hills, this 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home offers the perfect blend of character, privacy, and livability in one of Alexandria’s most established neighborhoods, known for its rolling hills, mature canopy trees, and distinctive homes.
 From the moment you enter, original architectural details - arched openings, a flooring mosaic in the entry, built-ins, and an entry coat closet with its original window - set the tone for a home that blends charm with updates. Natural light fills the main level, where the layout flows between the living room with fireplace, a separate dining room, and the updated kitchen with quartz countertops. A main level office adds flexibility for work from home needs. The family room addition anchors the back of the home, featuring large picture windows and peaceful, tree lined views that change beautifully with the seasons - lush and green in spring and summer, warm and colorful in the fall - creating a sense of privacy that feels removed from it all. Hardwood floors extend throughout the main and upper levels, reinforcing the home’s warm and cohesive feel. Upstairs, the primary suite is a retreat with treetop views, a custom walk-in closet, and a well appointed bath featuring marble tile, double vanity, separate jetted tub and shower, and a private water closet. Two additional front bedrooms are generously sized and share a hall bath. The lower level expands the living space with a fourth bedroom, full bath, and a versatile bonus room ideal for a gym, den, or additional hangout space, finished with durable LVP flooring. Outside, the tiered backyard offers multiple usable spaces for entertaining and play: a paver patio for seating and fire pit, a grassy lawn for games, and a mulched garden area with flowering plantings and a Cedar Works playset. Thoughtful landscaping includes strawberry plants, raspberry bushes, azaleas, and roses, all supported by an irrigation system in the front and back. A long private driveway provides easy parking for multiple cars. Major updates include two-zone HVAC (lower level 2021, upper level 2023) and a hot water heater replaced in 2021. With close proximity to Monticello Park, Beverley Hills Park (“the Pit”), Del Ray, Shirlington, and easy access to DCA/Reagan, DC and I-395, this home offers both convenience and a true sense of retreat. This is a home that feels nestled away from the everyday rush, set in a neighborhood people genuinely love to call home.
