Built for Distance in Arlington

This four-bedroom farmhouse in Lyon Park is seemingly built for social distancing. The front porch has stairs leading up to it on two sides, and there is a half-bath just inside the house, convenient for porch visitors.

The farmhouse kitchen has a mobile breakfast bar island, a ceiling fan, a stainless steel hood and backsplash above the stove, and a pantry nook with the back door. One of the upstairs bedrooms is styled as an office, with a wall of floor-to-ceiling shelves opposite a built-in desk. A few steps down from the rear deck is a second deck with a tree growing out of it, and a stone path leads down from the deck, through the yard and around the side of the house.

Converted out of a rowhouse, this one-bedroom condo offers a taste of the loft life on Chevy Chase DC's main street. There is a hall closet just inside the unit and to the left, half of the kitchen overlooks the living room.

The bedroom is off the living room and has a walk-in closet and access to the dual-entry bath. The loft has a built-in closet wall, creating space for storage and/or an office or flex area.
