21 W Oak Street

You'll love this beautifully updated brick Colonial on one of Rosemont's most picturesque, tree-lined streets. Thoughtfully blending timeless character with carefully curated modern updates, this four-bedroom, four-bath home has been extensively improved inside and out while preserving the warmth and character that make Rosemont one of Alexandria's most beloved neighborhoods. The expansive covered front porch creates an inviting first impression and serves as the perfect extension of the home's living space, an ideal spot to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day.

Inside, refinished hardwood floors, an updated wood-burning fireplace, and an opened floor plan between the living and dining rooms create bright, connected spaces that feel both classic and contemporary. The spacious kitchen flows effortlessly into the surrounding living areas and the light-filled, climate-controlled four-season room, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living and a comfortable place to enjoy the backyard in every season.

The second level features three bedrooms, including the primary suite, while the two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath. The finished top level offers a versatile living space complete with a full bath, making it ideal as a fourth bedroom, private guest suite, home office, teen retreat, playroom, or media room.

The professionally reimagined lower level is one of the home's standout features. Designed by acclaimed Alexandria designer Kristin Try, the space was rebuilt from the ground up with raised ceilings, all new plumbing and electrical systems, and thoughtfully curated finishes throughout. Unlike many older Alexandria homes, the increased ceiling height and exceptional craftsmanship create a space that feels like a true extension of the main living areas rather than a traditional basement. The spacious recreation room offers exceptional flexibility and, with egress and a nearby full bath, could easily serve as a 5th bedroom, guest suite, gym, or media room. Custom white oak built-ins with soft-close cabinetry, integrated shelving, and concealed electrical outlets create an elegant focal point, while the beautifully appointed full bath and magazine-worthy laundry room add both luxury and functionality.

Beyond the cosmetic updates, the home has been extensively improved with a high-efficiency Navien condensing combi boiler, professionally designed landscaping, a new irrigation system and comprehensive drainage improvements, a new driveway, an EV charging station, refinished hardwood floors, and whole-house CAT5 wiring with a centralized networking hub.

The thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces are equally impressive, featuring a beautifully landscaped, level backyard, detached garage, and dedicated play areas that create the perfect setting for relaxing, entertaining, or everyday family life.

Ideally situated just steps from Naomi L. Brooks Elementary School and only moments from two Metro stations, Old Town, Del Ray, parks, restaurants, and shopping, this exceptional home offers the perfect blend of classic Rosemont character, quality craftsmanship, and modern conveniences.
