824 ARCTURUS ON THE POTOMAC

824 ARCTURUS ON THE POTOMAC, ALEXANDRIA, VA 22308

$1,100,000

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.
