3 Distinctive Mid-Atlantic Homes from Alexandria to Charles Town

On a peaceful street in Waynewood, this beautifully updated brick Swarthmore model pairs thoughtful interiors with an outdoor setting made for lingering. Inside, hardwood floors, custom millwork, and high-end tilework are warmed by abundant natural light. The living room centers on a wood-burning fireplace with a black marble surround, while French doors extend everyday life to custom hardscaping, multilevel patios, and landscaped grounds. The kitchen is tailored for serious cooking, with granite countertops, custom maple cabinetry, under-cabinet lighting, stainless-steel appliances, and a tile backsplash, plus an induction stove. Upstairs are three bright bedrooms and an updated bath with double vanities; a bonus level adds a flexible bedroom with its own HVAC and access to a spacious attic area. Downstairs, a family room with a stone-surround gas fireplace, laundry with utility sink, and a carport with EV charger complete the picture. Walk to the George Washington Parkway bike path, Waynewood Elementary, Waynewood Pool Park, and Fort Hunt Park, then return home for evenings by the brick outdoor chimney.

Originally built into the story of Charles Town, this Jefferson County Historic Landmark offers a rare two-residence setting on a one-acre lot, surrounded by ancient copper beech trees in a park-like landscape. The main brick house balances scale and warmth with 12-foot ceilings, wood floors, six fireplaces, a lower-level rec room, and six bedrooms with eight baths, including two bedroom suites—one with a whirlpool tub. A separate brick guest house adds flexibility with two bedrooms, a living room, a fireplace, and a spa bath, ideal for multigenerational living or a dedicated home office. High-speed internet supports work-from-home days, while the location keeps you minutes from the MARC commuter train to DC, with shops and restaurants within walking distance, plus nearby Hollywood Casino and Historic Harpers Ferry. Currently operated as a bed and breakfast, it’s equally suited to private life.

Along the Potomac River in the sought-after Wessynton community, this spacious Meadow model pairs mid-century character with thoughtful updates. Hardwood floors span the main and upper levels, where a generous living room centers on a classic brick, wood-burning fireplace. The bright eat-in kitchen has been updated, and fresh interior paint adds a clean, modern backdrop throughout. Outside, a private back patio—backing to mature trees—invites unhurried mornings and easy outdoor dining. The lower level adds flexibility with a fourth and fifth bedroom, including one with a charming wood-paneled ceiling, plus a second rec room suited to a home gym, hobby area, or extra storage. Wessynton’s amenities include pools with lap lanes and a kiddie pool, tennis and basketball courts, a playground, a forest walking trail, and private boat ramp and dock access for time on the river.
