Sold for $700K at full price in two days.
BCP applied our unmatched approach to superior visual presentation and knowledge of the micro-market relevant to Overlook to obtain the highest sale price for this TH model in Overlook history.
Our client got $40K more than the most recent sale of this TH model, with that result coming in two days while other THs in Overlook and Landmark Mews linger on the market and sell for less than proper market value.
We fully furnished our client's empty house from the "House of BCP" interior design collection to ensure maximum visual impact upon buyers, both online and in person.
Your Choice of Real Estate Agent Matters.
Please enjoy this 3 bedroom, 2 full & 2 half bath, 2-car garage, 2260 finished sq.ft. townhouse in the sought-after Overlook community in Alexandria, Virginia.
The quality and scope of the upgrades throughout the house present a rarely found opportunity – A truly move-in ready home located inside the Beltway with immediate access to 395/495/95, but within a tree-lined, green-space community surrounding a Fairfax County Park.
While residents live in this Park-like setting, Overlook is also perfectly positioned for residents to reap “livability” and house valuation benefits from the forthcoming Landmark Mall redevelopment and other planned projects along the Landmark-Van Dorn Corridor.
A full description of the house features and upgrades and the Overlook community is provided below.
A detailed summary is also provided on the recently announced mixed-use redevelopment plan for Landmark Mall with Inova as the anchor client building a new Alexandria hospital and Foulger-Pratt as the local developer.
House Details:
A focus on the details – both big and small – is apparent throughout, from the choices in granite in the kitchen and bathrooms, to the upgraded light fixtures, to the brushed nickel hardware on every door in the house, with levers replacing knobs for a more elegant look and feel. An eye-pleasing color palette throughout the house will complement any design style preferred by the new homeowner.
- The house opens to a living room, where a gas fireplace and flanking built-in bookcases create a welcoming design focal point to enjoy as the first view upon entry. The living room view is complemented by the upgraded entry lantern fixture and mini-candelabra, both of which provide elegant design features to enjoy from throughout the main level.
- The living room opens to the dining room, with both rooms having crown molding and hardwood floors. The dining room has chair rail and wainscot trim, with a new candelabra creating another design focal point.
- The main level leads on to the kitchen with a cook's layout that is ready for entertaining. The kitchen has a deep-well sink on the island, ample prep room, stainless steel appliances, high-end granite counters, and a tiled floor. The kitchen island is sized for eating or watching the cook at work, with room for two stools.
- The open kitchen has an adjacent space with room for a sitting area or a table for informal dining. A bump-out space is sized for a relaxing sitting area with two walls of windows that look upon the deck and stone retaining wall and mature trees behind the house.
- The kitchen leads to a large deck for al fresco dining or entertaining. The decking is composite with a tobacco color, which provides both visual appeal and ease of maintenance. The house backs to mature trees that provide privacy for the main and bedroom levels.
- The Owner’s Suite Bedroom suite is large enough to make a King-size bed look small, with a large walk-in closet and separate seating area.
- The Owner’s Suite Bathroom is upgraded with high-end granite, rectangular undermount sinks, Moen fixtures with matching accessories, framed mirrors, and a soaking tub. This bathroom has a separate water closet for privacy.

- The lower level also has a half bathroom, which is upgraded with a new faucet, framed mirror, and light fixture.
- The garage is a two-car, single door model, with a separate storage area. The garage and storage area have shelving in place to provide various storage and usage options.
