Northern Virginia is riddled with hidden gems — homes that exude a quiet elegance built on luxury.
A case in point? The home at 1500 Collingwood Rd. in the Alexandria section of Fairfax County exudes European charm, paired with sophisticated modern amenities and a convenient location just a heartbeat from the George Washington Parkway. The property has a main house and a guest house. There are eight bedrooms, seven full baths, and one half-bath. The property on just over an acre is listed for $3.2 million.
Entering through the home’s French double doors, an oasis begins to unfold. Wainscoting reminiscent of a countryside French chateau adds detail to the walls in the foyer, while a hardwood staircase with wrought iron banister leads up to the home’s second level.
Stepping into the living room reveals hardwood floors, coffered ceilings, and a towering French fireplace, one of the home’s four fireplaces
Large enough for a team of chefs to work side by side, this home’s kosher kitchen has every modern amenity a home chef could hope for in a professional kitchen. Highlights include two top-of-the-line appliances, a six-burner stove, wine fridge, two refrigerators, and floor-to-ceiling cabinets for ample storage space.
On the home’s second level, the primary suite offers seclusion and special perks. The gas fireplace and hardwood floors add a regal touch, but don’t forget about the walk-in closet and primary bathroom. It also has a soaking tub and walk-in glass door shower.
Did we mention the home has a theater/media room for when you want the whole gang to get together? All that’s missing is the popcorn.
The home’s backyard features an in-ground pool, an outdoor kitchen, and a landscaped lawn and yard for entertaining.
