1722 S Arlington Ridge Rd

Perched high above Pentagon City and sited on nearly three quarters of an acre, this beautiful 105 year old bungalow is ripe with development opportunity. There are few lots this size that can accommodate a nearly 8000sf footprint. A truly huge house can be built, or current house added onto. This large lot may also accommodate a second residence or lavish pool house? the possibilities are endless and opportunities like this rarely exist. Commutes to the city couldn't be much easier or shorter - zero stop signs or stop lights until you are in the District. If Metro is preferred, take the walking path about one mile down to Pentagon City, or if Amazon HQ2 is in your future, enjoy the fifteen minute walk to and from work. The current house is almost completely hidden from the road by tall greenery and an amazing historic oak tree sheltering the deep curved driveway out front. Expansive property and setting of this beautiful three bedroom, two and a half bath home feel as if you are stepping back in time, to a movie-set worthy secluded Southern farmhouse, with a porch inviting you to rest a while and sip mint juleps in the shade. In the same family for over 50 years, and very well-maintained, many beautiful architectural features are intact with lovely moldings, archways, built-ins, hardwood flooring, chandeliers, and a stellar fireplace. Retreat into your backyard oasis with a large in-ground pool surrounded by a patio of handmade bricks, lush landscaping, and spacious level yard. The massive space and tall brick walls of the unfinished lower level offer unlimited design possibilities. Arlington Ridge neighbors adore their picturesque views, parks, and appreciate their quiet residential area with easy access to everything. Enjoy this unique opportunity to create your dream home.
