Location: 2533 N Ridgeview Road, Arlington, Virginia

Price: $3,395,000

Architect: Donald Lethbridge

Year Built: 1953

Footprint: 5,104 square feet (six bedrooms, five and one half baths)

Lot Size: 0.62 acres

From the Agent: "Originally designed by celebrated architect Donald Lethbridge and completed in 1953,  this substantial project took full advantage of a remarkable site in North Arlington. The current owners, including a respected architect, renovated the home with total sympathy for the original design and materials. Every delightful amenity and every bit of design and whimsy are so tastefully applied. The home is robust, built of concrete, brick, and steel, with spans of glass. The proportions are deceptive and incredibly generous. The elevated site is more than half an acre with seasonal skyline views into Washington D.C., the National Cathedral, and the Rosslyn Skyline."

The multistory residence is tucked away on a lush, tree-filled lot just a short drive from Washington, D.C.
