It's hard to know where to start with this magnificent condominium in a waterfront building in the heart of Alexandria. We could talk about unit 402 itself; at 905 square feet, it is the largest one bedroom model in the building and one of only 13 of that size. We could talk about the upgraded kitchen with the sliding glass doors leading to a spacious balcony. Or the hardwood floors running throughout the property. The large living room, the formal dining area, the breakfast nook, the large bedroom, full bath or the gobs of storage space (seriously). Or we could start by talking about Marina Towers - with its outdoor pool that sits twenty-five feet off of the Potomac and boasts some of the best views in the DMV. Or the gazebo, barbecue grills, outdoor dining spaces and the rocking chairs. Or the community room, the huge lending library, the well-equipped gymnasium, the sauna, the state-of-the-art mail room, the community gardens, the convenience store and laundry/ dry cleaning service on the terrace level. Of course, we would be sure to highlight that the modest condo dues cover ALL UTILITIES: electricity, gas, water, sewer and trash removal. And that the building has 24 hour front desk service, a full-time maintenance crew and laundry rooms on every level. But maybe, we'd start by noting how this place aces the "First Three Rules of Real Estate" test - location, location, location. Marina Towers Condominium is located a short 1.4 miles from Old Town Alexandria, a half a mile from Dangerfield Island, 1.4 miles from Del Ray, just over two miles from Reagan Airport, less than a mile to the Braddock Road Metro. and less than two miles from three metro stations. Crystal City is 2.8 miles away, National Harbor, MD 5.7 and The Warf 5.9 miles. And it is literally steps from the Mt Vernon walking/ biking trail. Wherever you start and whichever way you look at it, this is one amazing opportunities to own a home that allows you to enjoy the best that the area has to offer! Come take a look!
