Lovingly cared for by the same family for over 50 years, this charming 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home in Seminary Valley is a true hidden gem. The moment you step inside, you’ll appreciate the warmth of hardwood floors that flow throughout both the main and upper levels. The main level offers convenient one-level living with two bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bath. Upstairs, you’ll find two additional bedrooms and another stylishly updated full bath—perfect for family or guests. The heart of the home is the updated kitchen, complete with custom cabinetry, solid surface counters, and modern appliances, including a gas stove for the home chef. The spacious dining room, accented with custom wood paneling and chair rail, is ready to host everything from intimate dinners to large holiday gatherings. The living room features a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a versatile sitting area near the side entrance doubles as a perfect mudroom and houses the laundry area. The lower level expands your living space with a second kitchen, a welcoming Rec Room with a wood-burning stove, an office, and ample storage. Walk-up exterior access makes the lower level ideal for flexible living arrangements. Step outside to enjoy outdoor living at its best. A covered porch with composite decking leads to a generous maintenance-free composite deck, complete with a retractable awning for those sunny afternoons. You will also love the mature landscaping and perennial flowers, sprinkled amongst the stone pavered walkways around the house. But the real bonus is the large detached workshop—fully equipped with electricity, mini-split heating and cooling, a gas heater, and even its own bathroom. With separate electric metering and zoning that may allow for conversion to an ADU, the possibilities are endless for multi-generational living, a home office, or creative studio. All of this is nestled in the peaceful and established Seminary Valley neighborhood, offering a tranquil setting that’s just moments from shopping, dining, and everything that makes Alexandria such a vibrant place to call home. With easy access to major commuting routes and international airports, convenience and comfort come together perfectly in this exceptional property.
