20 E BELLEFONTE AVE, ALEXANDRIA,VA 22301

Charming Historic Gem with Modern Comforts in the Heart of Del Ray

Welcome to 20 E Bellefonte Avenue—a move-in ready 1910 American Foursquare blending timeless charm with thoughtful updates on a rare 5400 sq ft double lot. Nestled along one of Del Ray’s prettiest tree-lined streets, just a block and a half from “The Avenue,” this sun-filled three-story home offers enduring appeal, modern convenience, and room to grow.

Step inside to discover lovingly preserved original oak and pine floors, elegant built-ins, 6-over-6 sash windows, and a graceful staircase with landing. The expansive, open-concept family room and kitchen were transformed by a two-story addition, creating a bright, airy space that features a cozy fireplace, recessed lighting, large windows with lush garden views, and direct access to the wraparound deck and private backyard.

Upstairs, the spacious primary suite impresses with soaring vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a private bath. The upstairs hall bath marries old and new with updated tile and flooring alongside a classic claw-foot tub. Three additional bedrooms offer versatility for guests, home office, or play space.

Enjoy morning coffee on the full-length front porch or entertain in the fenced backyard—ideal for kids, pets, and gardening. Off-street parking, a basement with laundry, and attic storage add function to form. Newly refinished oak floors, interior paint throughout, new SS gas cooktop and microwave, new attic and primary bath fans, and three new toilets along with dual-zone A/C, updated electrical, classic clapboard siding and easy access to the neighborhood’s vibrant dining and shopping scene will make this your forever home. Please note there is a 7’ rear easement for power line access, and the basement is known to take on water during heavy rain.
