824 Arcturus On The Potomac, Alexandria, VA 22308

Tucked within Arcturus on the Potomac—a hidden riverfront enclave just south of Old Town—824 sits gracefully on nearly a half-acre of trees and seasonal river views. Cherished by the same owners for over 50 years, this 1941 cottage is ready for its next chapter: preserve its vintage character or design the custom home of your dreams. Inside, you’ll find charming original details, including wide-plank hardwood floors and a family room wrapped in windows that create the feeling of a treehouse retreat. The detached two-car garage is a car enthusiast’s haven with high ceilings, a workshop area, and even a car lift. Behind it, a separate outbuilding offers the perfect space for a home office, studio, or gym. With its unique setting, versatile spaces, and timeless charm, this home is brimming with potential—and just waiting for someone to make it shine again. Shown by appointment only.
