The kitchen ceiling has a curved dropped portion along the wall, and the bedrooms and bathrooms also have curved walls. The house also has a front porch, a roof terrace, a rear deck, a patio/parking pad, and a partially-finished lower level.

Contemporized Mid-Century Modern
Courtesy of Arlington Modern, the mid-century modern vernacular of this Falls Church house has been contemporized. This is most evident in the open-concept main level, where the vaulted ceiling has a wood I-beam at the center and three skylights traversing the peak. A double-sided, rhombus-shaped fireplace is shared between the front living area and a secluded family room with triple exposure courtesy of contiguous near-floor-to-ceiling windows. A bedroom suite on the main level has skylights, a dressing room, and open access to a glass-enclosed bathroom with a walk-in spa shower.

A Former UT Find in Stanton Park
UrbanTurf first shared the history of this 19th century carriage-house-to-residential conversion in Stanton Park a few years ago, a property that was formerly used for horse-and-buggy repair. Now, the two-level interior includes radiant concrete floor heating on the main level, original exposed ceiling beams and skylights, and salvaged finishings like the handrails on the second floor landing and a set of closet doors by the entrance that once graced a garage near the convention center. The house also has a circular court/patio/parking pad at the entrance.
