Property Description
Welcome to 6516 Telegraph Road, a spacious and updated 4-bedroom, 2-bath detached home with more than 2,200 square feet of finished living space, a large fenced yard, abundant off-street parking, and an exceptionally convenient Rose Hill location. Set on approximately one-third of an acre, this home offers something increasingly difficult to find this close to Alexandria, Metro and Washington, DC: substantial indoor and outdoor space combined with important recent mechanical and appliance upgrades. Inside, engineered wood flooring, recessed lighting and a comfortable, open layout create a bright and inviting living environment. The spacious kitchen connects naturally to the main living areas, while the large rear family room provides additional room for relaxing, entertaining, a play area or flexible everyday living. Major recent improvements add both comfort and peace of mind, including a new HVAC/furnace system installed in 2026, water heater replaced in 2024, new dishwasher in 2026, and new stove/oven in 2025. The utility room also includes a new refrigerator/freezer, providing valuable additional food and beverage storage. Four bedrooms offer excellent flexibility for bedrooms, guest accommodations, fitness space or a dedicated home office. With two full baths and single-level living, the floor plan works well for a variety of household needs. Step outside to a large fenced backyard with patio and fire-pit area, offering plenty of room for outdoor dining, entertaining, gardening, recreation or pets. The property also includes two useful outbuildings: a traditional storage shed plus a separate workspace shed, giving tenants valuable space for tools, hobbies, projects, equipment and additional storage. Another standout feature is the expansive driveway with parking for multiple vehicles, a major convenience compared with many Alexandria-area rentals. The location is equally compelling. Situated in the established Rose Hill area of Fairfax County, the home is convenient to Rose Hill Plaza, Kingstowne Shopping Centre, neighborhood shopping, restaurants, recreation and everyday services. Public bus stops are located immediately along Telegraph Road, adding another transportation option for commuters. Franconia Recreation Center is just down Telegraph Road, while nearby parks, recreation facilities and neighborhood amenities provide plenty of options for an active lifestyle. Huntington Metro is approximately 2.8 miles away, with convenient access to Old Town Alexandria, Kingstowne, the Beltway, Eisenhower Avenue, Washington, DC and Reagan National Airport. 6516 Telegraph Road delivers the combination renters are looking for: four bedrooms, generous living space, a large fenced yard, two sheds including dedicated workspace, extensive driveway parking, major recently replaced systems and appliances, and a highly convenient Alexandria location.
