2204 Potomac Avenue Alexandria, VA 22301
The restrained and dignified facade of this handsome townhouse in Potomac Yard conceals a spacious and open interior that rivals anything else in the area. Carefully considered exterior details include a decorative brick entablature and mansard roof which comprise a statement regarding the developer’s interest in creating a community that not only responds to contemporary living, but also connects the present with earlier traditions. A portico with metal fretwork and a generous fascia both evoke Alexandria’s late 19th-century domestic architecture. The visitor is greeted by a large foyer, and the interior is oriented around four distinct levels throughout which four bedrooms, three full bathrooms and two powder rooms are found. Details such as hardwood floors, travertine tile, and high ceilings were incorporated into the overall design of the interior, making it open and welcoming. The entry level provides one bedroom, half bathroom, and access to the garage. The second floor offers an open kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, and tile backsplashes. The dining and living rooms are also found on this level, both of which are spacious and bright, owing to the use of the two-over-two fenestration formula, reminiscent of window patterns of the late Victorian period. A balcony off the kitchen provides a view of the rest of the community as well as parts of Alexandria. The primary suite is as luxurious as the rest of the house, offering superb closet space and a two-vanity bathroom with a separate water closet. The fourth-floor entertaining space may be used as a media room, home gym, or as a suite to the outdoor space. A kitchenette makes this space especially useful not only for entertaining, but also for long-term guests as it offers a third full bathroom. The private rooftop terrace includes an indoor-outdoor fireplace, and two-car garage parking is found at the back of the house.
