Endless Possibilities in Sought-After North Del Ray / Lynhaven! Unlock the potential of this classic Del Ray townhome and bring your renovation dreams to life in one of Alexandria’s most beloved neighborhoods! Perfectly situated near the vibrant shops and cafés of “The Avenue,” this charming brick residence offers a rare opportunity to create your ideal home or investment in a location that truly has it all. With approximately 864 square feet on the main and upper levels, enclosed front and back porches, and a full unfinished basement, the possibilities for expansion and reimagination are endless. The main level features a welcoming entry that flows into a sunlit living room, a separate dining area, and a galley-style kitchen ready for your custom redesign. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms and a full bath await. The walk-out lower level—one of the few full walk-outs in Lynhaven—includes space for a bedroom or recreation room, laundry area, and rough-in plumbing for a future second full bath. Step outside to two private, off-street parking spaces, a rare and valuable feature in this neighborhood. Both the front and rear porches have been enclosed for year-round enjoyment but can easily be reopened to showcase their original architectural charm. The location doesn’t get better. You’ll love being just minutes from Del Ray’s restaurants, boutique shops, and community events, with quick access to the Pentagon, Amazon HQ2, DCA Airport, Old Town, and multiple Metro stations. Major commuter routes, parks, and top-rated schools are all nearby—making this the perfect blend of city convenience and small-town warmth. Whether you’re an investor, builder, or end-user, this home presents a fantastic opportunity to personalize, modernize, and build lasting equity in one of Alexandria’s most in-demand neighborhoods.
