6325D Eagle Ridge Lane, Unit 32Alexandria, VA 22312Price: $540,000

This is not your typical condo and that becomes clear the moment you arrive. Set along a quiet no-thru street, this two-level home offers something increasingly hard to find: a private garage entrance, generous living space, and your own brick patio surrounded by garden and tree views. Step inside and the home immediately feels open and inviting. Tall ceilings, wood flooring and recessed lighting are paired with crown molding, chair rail and box trim, giving the space architectural character without feeling overly formal. Natural light moves easily through the open-concept main level, creating a home that feels bright, comfortable and connected. The kitchen sits right at the heart of it all, with a large breakfast bar that naturally becomes the gathering spot. There's plenty of workspace, a pantry for extra storage, and a gas range with double oven for anyone who actually enjoys cooking or just likes having the option. Just beyond the kitchen, the family room has one of the home's best features: a corner fireplace framed in marble. Open the door to the private brick patio and suddenly the living space extends outdoors. Garden and tree views create a surprisingly peaceful backdrop for morning coffee, dinner outside, a few favorite plants, or an evening by the fire after coming back inside. Upstairs, the primary suite feels wonderfully removed from the main living areas. Double doors introduce a spacious bath with a jetted soaking tub, separate shower, double sinks, private water closet, linen closet and recessed lighting. The primary bedroom also offers a walk-in closet and ceiling fan with light. The second bedroom enjoys something guests will appreciate, a private full bath of its own, along with window treatments for added privacy. An additional linen closet is conveniently located in the upper hall. And one of those everyday details you'll appreciate more than you expect: the front-loading, energy-efficient washer and dryer are upstairs on the bedroom level. No carrying laundry from one floor to another. With two finished levels, a private garage entrance, tall ceilings, detailed millwork, wood floors, a fireplace, two private bedroom baths and an outdoor space that looks out to greenery rather than the everyday bustle, this home offers the ease of condo living without feeling like you've compromised on space, privacy or personality. Here's a polished version that is clear without making the photos sound unreliable: “Please note that the listing photos were taken a few years ago and are not current. However, they remain a good representation of the property's overall condition, layout, and features.”
