About 8921 Vernon View Dr

Introducing a rare opportunity: mid-century modern gem or prime buildable lot! Available for the first time since 1956, this unique corner property offers unparalleled potential in one of Alexandria's most desirable locations. Nestled on over half an acre of serene land, surrounded by mature trees and open green space on all four sides, this property promises to be your peaceful oasis. Just minutes from the Potomac River, scenic trails, and Fort Hunt Park, this property offers a lifestyle that combines timeless charm and convenience to amenities. Originally built as the developer’s model home in 1956, this mid-century modern residence remains in nearly original condition, a true time capsule waiting for its next chapter. With its expansive windows, untouched hardwood floors (preserved under carpet since construction), and original light fixtures, the home retains its authentic character. The exterior unpainted salmon brick façade adds to its distinctive charm. For those seeking a renovation project, this home offers a perfect canvas to modernize to your specifications while preserving its mid-century heritage. Alternatively, for developers or buyers looking to build a custom dream home, the sprawling lot provides ample space for a new construction property. Unlike many lots in the area, this one has over a half acre and ample frontage on both Vernon View and Bushrod Rd, offering endless possibilities for creative design and expansion. Whether you’re drawn to the home’s untouched vintage appeal or the opportunity to build on one of the most expansive and secluded lots in the area, this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime offering. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of history or create your future in this exceptional Alexandria location!
