The slate patio off the family room is perfect for entertaining or enjoying a quiet morning coffee. Ascend to the rooftop terrace, and you'll be greeted by sweeping Potomac River views – a breathtaking backdrop for the many firework gatherings in Alexandria. The thoughtfully redesigned kitchen and family room are open and inviting with entertaining made easy with the large center island. The laundry room and powder room are also easily assessable. This home offers the convenience of a garage and off-street parking. Its located just steps away from the riverfront, the Torpedo Factory, and a short three blocks to King Street. Trader Joe's and an array of recently opened restaurants are all within a few blocks. The location is the best for access to the Southeast and Northeast Quadrants plus no HOA.
