Property Description

Welcome to 838 S. Lincoln Street in the sought-after Alcova Heights neighborhood—an inviting 1939 charmer ideally located just moments from the shops, dining, and revitalization of the Columbia Pike corridor. This solid, well-maintained home retains much of its original character, featuring a screened-in front porch, hardwood floors throughout the main living areas, and a cozy living room with fireplace and built-in bookcases. The dining room offers additional charm with custom built-in cabinetry and opens to a spacious rear deck—perfect for outdoor entertaining. The main level includes two bedrooms connected by a full bath, while the upper level features a large bedroom with alcove storage and a second full bathroom. Additional highlights include an unfinished basement, a detached two-car garage, and a generous backyard with a mature tree providing shade and privacy. Major systems have been updated, including HVAC (2020), hot water heater (December 2021), washer and dryer (2017), microwave (2018), and chimney service (2020). A commuter’s dream with convenient access to S. Glebe Road, Columbia Pike, I-395, and Route 50, this home offers timeless character in a prime Arlington location.
