NoVa Best New Listings: Del Ray, Golf Club Manor, Fort Ellsworth
In this week’s edition of NoVa Best New Listings, we look at an understated urban farm house in Del Ray, a condo with a kitchen balcony in Fort Ellsworth, and an sleek renovation of a 1950’s Golf Club Manor rambler.
Open, Modern-feel Arlington Rambler
The modern upgrades to this Arlington ’50s rambler are numerous—metal ceiling fans, enormous windows, recessed lighting, and a glass-filled half-bath that could be one of the best-looking powder rooms in the area. The effect of the empty main floor is so modern and sleek that it almost seems a shame to furnish it. The lower level, with its white-washed wood paneling, brick fireplace, and big farmhouse doors that separate a family room from laundry/mud room areas, is just as slick, but cozy, too.

- Price: $929,500
- Bedrooms: Four
- Bathrooms: Three
- Year Built: 1955
- Listing Agent: Michael Pugh, RE/MAX Allegiance
Urban Farm House in Del Ray
While farmhouse style homes don’t necessarily have much in common with actual farm houses, this three-bedroom home just off of Mount Vernon Avenue definitely gives off a rustic vibe, thanks to wood flooring throughout, shabby chic distressed cabinetry in the kitchen, and a garden out back that any ambitious urban farmer type should have no problem maintaining or expanding.
- Full Listing: 2704 Sycamore Street, Alexandria, Va. (map)
- Price: $694,500
- Bedrooms: Three
- Bathrooms: 1.5
- Year Built: 1920

Alexandria Condo with Balcony off of the Kitchen
It has happened to almost every condo/apartment-dweller at some point: You’re cooking up a storm in the kitchen, set off the smoke detector, and then you find yourself using a dish towel to direct smoke out of a teeny tiny kitchen window, or a larger window in an adjoining room. That scenario is unlikely to play out in this well-maintained one-bedroom condo near the King Street Metro, as it has a huge balcony that can be accessed from the upgraded kitchen: If things get too smoky, you can just fling open the sliding glass door.

- Price: $292,000
- Bedrooms: One
- Bathrooms: One
- Year Built: 1974
- Listing Agent: Patricia Cornelio, McEnearney Associates
