Noteworthy: Coveted Del Ray gem: 2Bedroom/2baths, oversized yard!

Welcome to Del Ray—where charm shows up right on time and decides to stay. This delightful 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home strikes that rare balance between cozy character and modern ease.

The Choral Arts Society of Washington will bring Ralph Vaughan Williams’s Dona Nobis Pacem, a 40-minute plea for peace written in 1936 as Europe moved toward another world war, to Alexandria’s Schlesinger Concert Hall and Arts Center on April 18th. This timely concert asks the audience to imagine how we create peace in an era dominated by strife.

What makes this performance unlike anything in the area this season: midway through the concert, the music pauses. Professor Peter Loge, Director of the School of Media and Public Affairs at George Washington University, will lead the audience through a guided civic conversation about the questions the music raises. Not a lecture, but a genuine moment of reflection, together, in the room. (more…)

Noteworthy: Tour this beautifully reimagined, light-filled 1880 Colonial brick residence!

This home feels both timeless and effortlessly livable. The main entrance has been thoughtfully placed on the right side of the home. A decorative iron gate opens to the brick courtyard, offering enhanced privacy and security while creating a gracious and secluded approach to the residence. Inside, the entry sits perfectly between a welcoming family room and an updated, chef-inspired kitchen designed for both entertaining and everyday living. Just beyond, a door leads to a serene enclosed garden with a wooden privacy fence and brick patio — an ideal setting for morning coffee, evening grilling, or relaxed gatherings. A discreetly positioned powder room completes the main level. New flooring over the original hardwood floors anchor the living spaces on the main floor, while a gas fireplace creates a warm focal point in the living room.

The gated front entrance framed in iron adds an extra layer of charm and distinction. Along the rear, newly installed privacy fencing is softened by curated plantings that will bloom beautifully with the seasons. Upstairs, the original wood flooring sets the tone for the well-appointed ensuite bath to the primary suite and added closets to each of the three bedrooms, enhancing both comfort and functionality. Windows on three sides fill the home with natural light throughout the day, highlighting elegant crown and chair-rail moldings as well as thoughtfully integrated built-ins. The laundry and storage are in the basement.
