**Open Houses this weekend; Sat 4/18, 12-2 PM & Sun 4/19, 1-4 PM** Come tour DreamKey—a rare offering in Alexandria City where space, privacy, and freedom come together in a way that’s nearly impossible to find inside the Beltway. Tucked away on a quiet, non–cut-through street in the sought-after Ballantrae neighborhood near Old Town and N. Quaker Lane, this property delivers a truly unique lifestyle with no HOA. Set on an expansive 0.64-acre corner lot, the home offers an exceptional blend of comfort, flexibility, and outdoor living. The grounds are thoughtfully curated with mature landscaping, a wisteria-covered trellis patio, fruit trees, greenhouse, and a two-story barn-style outbuilding—plus ample space for a future pool, garden, or simply room to breathe. Inside, you’ll find meaningful updates throughout, including a newer roof with transferable warranty, renovated bathrooms, a custom maintenance-free deck, wide-plank hardwood floors, updated HVAC systems, and a new water heater. Architectural details and distinctive features—such as large picture windows, a unique porthole window, wine refrigerator, range hood, and stainless steel appliances—add character and charm. Flexible living options make this home as functional as it is inviting, with the potential for a main-level primary suite and a lower-level bedroom with private entrance—ideal for guests, a home office, gym, or income-producing space. Enjoy easy access to nearby trails at Forest Park and Chinquapin Park, as well as the Chinquapin Recreation Center & Aquatic Facility and newly rebuilt, state-of-the-art public schools. Ideally located with seamless connectivity to I-395, I-495, King Street, Metro, VRE, Amtrak, Reagan National Airport, and Washington, DC. A property—and lifestyle—that stands apart. Rare, refined, and ready to be experienced.
