Welcome to 2402 Ross Street in the Heart of White Oaks!
This solid-brick Rambler is full of character and comfort, nestled on a generous 0.35-acre lot with beautifully landscaped front and back yards—ideal for relaxing evenings, backyard games, or hosting gatherings.
Inside, you’ll find timeless hardwood floors, fresh paint throughout, and an updated kitchen that effortlessly combines modern style with everyday functionality. The main level offers three bedrooms, a spacious family room anchored by a cozy fireplace, and a brand-new deck just off the living area—perfect for morning coffee or sunset get-togethers.
Downstairs, the fully finished lower level offers incredible flexibility. With its own kitchen, bedroom, den, and an additional family room (complete with a second fireplace), this space is perfect for multigenerational living, an AirBnB or rental opportunity, or simply room to spread out and enjoy.
Outside, the home truly shines. Children will love the private playground with a climbing wall and rope line, while the expansive yard leaves plenty of space for gardens, sports, and weekend BBQs. Two storage sheds provide ample room for tools and toys, and the newly built workshop—with electricity, A/C, and a roll-up bay door—is perfect for hobbies, projects, or extra storage. The large patio invites summer dining under the stars or cozy fall evenings with friends.
Life on Ross Street – Where Community Meets Comfort
Ross Street is more than just a quiet street—it's a close-knit, welcoming community. Kids play freely, teens help out with babysitting and yard work, and neighbors look out for each other while respecting personal space. With minimal traffic and regular neighborhood gatherings, it strikes a rare balance of peace and connection.
Endless Nature & Outdoor Adventures
Just two blocks away, forest footpaths await, and nearby gems like Huntley Meadows, Dykes Marsh, and the GW Parkway trail offer daily wildlife sightings and year-round outdoor fun. In winter, a beloved local sledding hill brings the neighborhood together, and summers are best spent just down the hill at Little Hunting Park Pool & Tennis Club.
Convenience Without Compromise
Tucked away from the bustle, yet only minutes from Route 1, you'll have easy access to shopping, dining, and everyday essentials. Historic Old Town Alexandria is just 10 minutes away for farmers markets, riverside walks, and boutique charm. Commuting is a breeze with three routes into DC (GW Parkway, Route 1, or 295) and bus lines to Huntington Metro within walking distance. And the newly renovated Mount Vernon Rec Center promises even more to love about the area.
Come See for Yourself
This home has been a cherished place for its current owners, and now it's ready to welcome someone new. Schedule a private tour—you just might fall in love.
