Welcome to 207 Laverne Avenue, a beyond stunning, classic turn-of-the-century Victorian Del Ray residence. A large, inviting front porch with lovely porch swing and ceiling fans welcome you to this delightful home. Take note of the artistic/ornamental wrought iron gate and front fencing and relish the overall lovely historic curb appeal of this enchanting 3 bed/1.5 bath house. Freshly painted, newly refinished gleaming hardwoods, updated kitchen and baths are just some of the attractive features showcased at 207 Laverne Avenue! As you enter this residence, take in the true charm of this early 20th century era home. The main living level features an updated kitchen which opens to the Family/Sunroom addition, a convenient ½ bath, a front parlor, an expansive living room with a wood burning fireplace adorned by a stunning (late 18th century French) free standing marble mantel and surround. This home provides entertaining perfection with the perfect flow and floor plan. The open concept kitchen and addition of the sunroom provided a spectacular venue for every life event. The bedroom level highlights include 3 amply sized bedrooms, the primary boasting a walk-in closet and a beautifully updated full bath, new hardwoods and attic access providing tons of convenient storage. The expansive grounds and flowering gardens of this residence are extraordinary. Perennial landscaping has transformed the front and back of the property into lush and vibrant four-season flowering gardens. The gardens are a perfect setting to take entertaining outdoors whenever possible. Enjoy a spacious detached rear garage in the backyard. Additional conversion uses for this space include home office, art studio, guest house, etc. Relax in the lovely Hot Tub for optimal enjoyment of these spectacular grounds! There is a basement (accessed from the rear exterior, or interior sunken stairs) which is currently being used as an extensive wine cellar. Great storage options are available in this space as well. The house itself is exceptionally historically appealing. This turn-of-the-century Victorian was part of the railroad industry and culture in and around the Town of Potomac. Its Mount Jefferson and St. Elmo Trolley stops now house a three-block park that is well-used by families, dog walkers, and children playing. Del Ray is simply amazing. Del Ray citizens can enjoy a lively weekly farmers’ market, and standout cultural and arts events. 207 Laverne Avenue is accessible to bike paths and wildlife-filled walking trails, as well as convenient public transportation into Old Town Alexandria or the District in minutes. Amazing location, steps to Del Ray’s Mount Vernon Avenue “The Avenue” Shops and Restaurants, future Potomac Yards Metro Stop (opening May 2023), Amazon HQ2, and Old Town Alexandria. Amazing commuting options to the Pentagon, The District and all major highways. Reagan National Airport is just a few minutes down the street. Welcome home!
