About This Home

Back on the market! Contract fell through. You have another chance at this Amazing opportunity to own a 1-acre (zoned R-2), mostly cleared lot offered at a great price, perfect for investors, builders, or buyers seeking a well-located property with easy access to major roads and nearby amenities. With no HOA and utilities (gas, electric, water/sewer) already on-site but currently shut off, the land offers excellent potential for redevelopment. A house is present on the property and is being sold strictly as-is; enter at your own risk due to a past moisture issue, and please do not enter or walk the lot without an appointment. The location is exceptionally convenient to Reagan National Airport (DCA), Rt 1, S Kings Hwy, and numerous nearby retailers and attractions including Costco (0.8 mi), Home Depot (1.4 mi), Michaels (1.5 mi), George Washington’s Mount Vernon (1.7 mi), Giant Food (2.8 mi), Huntley Meadows Park (2.8 mi), Target (3.2 mi), and Krispy Kreme (3.3 mi), making this a rare chance to secure valuable land in a high-demand area.
