NoVa Best New Listings: Two Modern and a Condo With a Reading Room

• September 8, 2013

by Jamie Liu

In this week’s edition of NoVa Best New Listings, UrbanTurf looks at two contemporary homes in Alexandria and Arlington, and a condo with a spot to read in Ballston.

Despite being built in the 1940s, this five-bedroom stone house in Alexandria bucks expectations with a modern, European minimalist interior. Its open layout, high ceilings, and tall windows flood all the rooms with light. Extra details like a built-in coffee maker, walk-in showers, stone fireplace, and a landscaped garden with sprinkler system add to its appeal.

The sleek interiors and open layout of this international style home in Dawson Terrace look like they’re straight out of a design magazine. The kitchen features two of everything — two four-burner stoves, a double oven, and two refrigerators. Floor-to-ceiling windows and a roof deck surround the second and third floor bedrooms, filling them with light and space.
