In this week’s Northern Virginia edition of Best New Listings, we look at a rather unique Art Deco home in Lee Heights, a luxury condo in Rosslyn, and an updated Cape Cod in Leeway Heights.


Three-Bedroom Art Deco Home in Lee Heights

Best New Listings: The Northern Virginia Edition: Figure 1

Built in 1939, this recently renovated Art Deco home in Lee Heights is highlighted in the book Washington Deco, Art Deco in the Nation’s Capitol, evidence that it represents the style well. The architectural history lesson begins with the rounded, light glass block entry that opens into a foyer with the original stairwell light fixture, entry chandelier and “ziggurat style” molding around a built-in telephone nook. The home’s upgraded kitchen combines art deco styling with new cabinets, granite counters, stainless steel appliances and a seafoam green subway tile backsplash. Other art deco details abound, while oversized Anderson windows in the family and sun rooms provide great views into the backyard.
