Perched on the ninth floor of the newest and most refined of the three Carlyle Towers, this light-filled two-bedroom, two-bath residence offers a rare combination: the energy and convenience of Old Town Alexandria without a moment of its hassle. Step inside to an open, sun-washed floor plan anchored by a private enclosed veranda, your year-round perch above the treetops and city lights. The home lives easy and bright, with a flexible layout and a generous primary suite. At its heart, the kitchen showcases granite countertops and a full suite of LG appliances, including a brand-new range and microwave, while the sunlit breakfast area opens directly onto the veranda, a daily treat for morning coffee or a quiet glass of wine as the evening sky turns to amber. But the true luxury here is the life that surrounds it. Both Whole Foods and Wegmans sit just moments from your door, turning the everyday errand into an easy stroll. Two Metro stations are within a leisurely walk, and the VRE and Amtrak at Alexandria Union Station put weekend escapes to New York City at your fingertips. Reagan National Airport is ten minutes away, the heart of Washington, DC just twenty. Spend your weekends along the Potomac waterfront, cycling the Mount Vernon Trail, or taking in the storied riverfront setting of the Old Dominion Boat Club, then wandering the cobblestone shops and waterfront dining of Old Town before returning home to resort-style serenity. Carlyle Towers delivers full-service living at its finest: 24-hour concierge and security, two fitness centers, indoor and outdoor pools, a sauna and spa, tennis, a putting green, and beautifully landscaped grounds. Garage parking and additional storage convey, and the condo fee covers water, sewer, and trash, leaving only electric and internet in your name. This is more than a residence. It is a lifestyle of connection, ease, and quiet sophistication, all from Alexandria's most sought-after address. Total approximate square feet -1328 (1228 main areas + 100 sq ft enclosed balcony).
