About this home
1305 Key Drive presents a rare opportunity inside the Beltway in Alexandria City’s highly sought-after Ballantrae neighborhood; a setting where privacy, space, flexibility, and freedom converge in a way seldom found this close to Washington. Ideally positioned on a quiet non-cut-through street near Old Town Alexandria and North Quaker Lane, this exceptional property offers the added rarity of no HOA.
Situated on an expansive and beautifully landscaped .64-acre corner lot, the property delivers an extraordinary outdoor lifestyle with mature trees, fruit trees, greenhouse, wisteria-covered trellis patio, and a striking two-story barn-style outbuilding. The grounds provide abundant flexibility for entertaining, gardening, recreation, future pool potential, or simply enjoying a level of outdoor space rarely available inside the Beltway.
Inside, the home blends warmth, character, and meaningful modern updates. Improvements include a newer roof with transferable warranty, renovated bathrooms, updated HVAC systems, new water heater, custom maintenance-free deck, wide-plank hardwood flooring, stainless steel appliances, wine refrigerator, and a designer range hood. Distinctive architectural details including oversized picture windows and a charming porthole window create natural light and timeless personality throughout the home.
Designed with flexibility in mind, the floor plan offers potential for a main-level primary suite as well as a lower-level bedroom with private entrance; ideal for multigenerational living, guests, au pair accommodations, home office use, fitness space, or potential income-producing opportunities.
Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate close proximity to trails and green space at Fort Ward Park and Chinquapin Park Recreation Center & Aquatics Facility, along with easy access to shopping, dining, and commuter routes including I-395, I-495, King Street, Metro, VRE, Amtrak, and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.
A truly rare Alexandria offering where lot size, location, flexibility, and lifestyle come together in a way that is increasingly difficult to find....
