From the moment we stepped into our home, we fell in love with the elements that Charles Goodman set out to achieve in the late 1940s as he developed the neighborhood and pioneered a new type of architectural style right outside Old Town Alexandria. We are only the third owners of this special home which was originally built in 1954. The open floor plan, combined with the wall of windows and extremely private backyard almost allows you to believe that you have invited nature right inside your home, and even on a dreary day, the home is filled with light and exposure to the outdoors. The architecture, floor plan, and many rooms of our home allow you to both work, play, and entertain all within the same walls – easily. The dedicated front office is perfect for a Work From Home situation, and the home easily accommodates guests or a growing family with four bedrooms. Two living spaces, one upstairs and one down, allow for entertaining or relaxing in a dedicated space. The kitchen with its Wolfe stove– arguably our favorite space – is well equipped for even the most discerning chef, and we’ve hosted many family meals and celebrations over the years with plenty of space to gather. Hardwood floors throughout the entire home create a cohesive, flowing feeling. Finally, the Mid-Century Modern style is accentuated throughout with each fixture, color, and design choice in the home. Our naturally private and large backyard is perfect for entertaining, playtime, or just enjoying the weather, and in addition, Hollin Hills features over 30 acres of walkable parks and trails – perfect for breaking out of your home office or getting some exercise – and is particularly gorgeous during the fall when our thousands of mature trees show their colors. This unique feature is a rarity in today’s times – a true treasure that we utilize on almost a daily basis. * * * * * * We have been dedicated caretakers of our home – we have made the effort to continue to honor the traditions and deep history of our neighborhood in all decisions made in regards to improvements. Even though our home was built in 1954, you’ll find the conveniences and luxury of a newer home. Lastly, although you’ll feel engulfed by our large trees and beautiful landscape, Hollin Hills is an excellent location for everything you’ll need. We are only 12 miles from Washington, DC and we are only 4 miles away from everything Old Town Alexandria has to offer. For us, we loved that all errands could be accomplished within a 15 minute radius. The landscape, the windows, the architectural style, the conveniences, and the feeling you get living here – make it like nowhere else. It’s been an honor to live in such a unique and historic home and we will deeply miss living here, We hope that you will enjoy it and treasure it as much as we do. Cheers! Ali & Jamie
