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.

A short walk to the Ballston Metro Station is not the only thing to recommend this two bedroom condo. It has been fully renovated with custom closets, a modernized kitchen, bamboo floors, and a new washer and dryer. An in-unit sun room also provides a sunny place to relax and read.
