    What's special

    Tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac, 5570 La Vista Drive is a spacious and beautiful 5-bedroom, 4-bath home offering over 3,800+ finished sq ft of inviting living space in a prime Alexandria location. The grand entrance, highlighted by a large arched window and stately columns, welcomes you inside. Beyond the entry, a generous home office with custom built-ins and thoughtful lighting provides a quiet space for work or study. The main floor balances style and function, featuring a formal dining room with modern fixtures, a bedroom with convenient en-suite access to a full bath—a unique benefit in this neighborhood—and a cozy living room anchored by a gas fireplace. Large windows fill the space with natural light, including several striking custom-painted panes that add character and charm. The kitchen is perfect for everyday living and entertaining, with a gas cooktop, double ovens, refrigerator with icemaker, plenty of counter space and storage, plus a built-in desk for added functionality. There’s also a counter area with space for chairs—great for casual meals or morning coffee—and an adjacent flexible space that can serve as a second dining area or an additional living room, depending on your needs. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms include a show stopping primary suite with vaulted ceilings, two walk-in closets, and a luxurious bath featuring a two-person jetted soaking tub, walk-in shower, double vanities, and a separate water closet. A hall bath with dual sinks and an upper-level laundry room add to daily convenience. Beautiful wood floors run throughout the main and upper levels. The lower level is a versatile retreat with a large recreation area that easily fits a ping pong table and a cozy den setup. French doors provide walk-up access to the backyard, bringing in natural light and creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A personal barre studio offers space for workouts or stretching. Whether hosting movie nights, exercising, or accommodating guests, this level adapts effortlessly. There’s also a bonus room, a full bath, and generous storage room. Step outside to a private, tree-shaded backyard featuring a spacious, low-maintenance Trex deck—installed in 2017—and a paved stone patio, ideal for everything from morning coffee and quiet reading to summer barbecues and outdoor gatherings. The shaded setting offers a peaceful retreat, while the deck and patio provide plenty of room for seating, dining, or container gardening. Additional conveniences include a 2-car garage and a built-in intercom system. Recent updates include a brand-new driveway, fresh landscaping, new lighting, and refinished wood floors on the main and upper levels (2025). Both HVAC systems were replaced in 2022 and a new flagstone walkway at the entrance was added in 2020. Enjoy the advantages of living on a quiet cul-de-sac, offering added privacy and minimal traffic—great for families and outdoor activities. At the same time, you’re just 1 mile from the nearest bus stop, less than 3 miles to the Metro, and minutes from Kingstowne, Old Town Alexandria, DC, 495, the GW Parkway, and DCA. Using neighborhood trails, you can also walk to the Van Dorn Metro in exactly 1 mile. This location combines a great neighborhood feel with easy access to everything you need.
