Property Description
A blue flagstone walkway framed in brick invites guests through the front lawn to the main entrance, discreetly set along the side of the home and framed by a finely detailed, pedimented Colonial Revival surround that reads like architectural jewelry against the brick facade. The entrance opens to a proper foyer with a coat closet and discreetly placed powder room, creating a gracious sense of arrival.
Inside, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined to offer exceptional light, surprising scale, and incredible functionality, all while preserving its architectural character and making everyday life feel effortless.
The main level is exceptional in both scale and atmosphere. The living and dining spaces unfold openly around a gas fireplace, with hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and an extraordinary number of windows drawing in natural light throughout the day. The result is open and inviting, equally suited to quiet evenings and effortless entertaining.
The kitchen is warm, polished, and highly functional, with generous custom cabinetry, expansive quartz work surfaces, and a glass tile backsplash. An adjoining breakfast area creates a natural place for morning coffee, casual meals, and conversation overlooking the backyard.
Upstairs, the character and volume created by the Dutch Colonial roofline give each of the three bedrooms a distinct sense of place. The primary suite includes a customized closet and private bath with a soaking tub and separate walk in rain shower. Two additional bedrooms share a beautifully renovated marble hall bath with a tub and shower.
The lower level is one of the home's most valuable surprises. Its generous ceiling height offers scale consistent with the upper levels, allowing it to feel like a true continuation of the home rather than an afterthought. A spacious family room is joined by a fourth bedroom or private home office with custom cabinetry, an extensive built in work surface, and excellent storage. A full bath with a tub and shower, together with a separate exterior entrance, provides exceptional versatility and privacy.
Even the laundry room feels considered, with built in cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, custom butcher block counters, integrated drying racks and ironing station, and a distinctive wall covering that brings unexpected personality to a practical space.
The fully fenced backyard is private and seamlessly connected to the main level and garage. A generous blue flagstone patio with brick detailing provides ample room for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the lawn and mature flowering crape myrtles create a colorful and peaceful backdrop. A deep private driveway offers abundant off street parking and leads to the well proportioned detached garage, with space for parking, gardening equipment, bicycles, and additional storage.
Beyond the front door is the best of Lyon Park. Lyon Park and its community green space and playground are just blocks away, with Fillmore Park, neighborhood trails, restaurants, Metro, Clarendon, and Courthouse all close at hand. Downtown Washington, National Landing, The Pentagon, and Reagan National Airport are only minutes away, offering remarkable connectivity without sacrificing the calm of a true neighborhood setting.
With more than 2,350 finished square feet across three levels, 255 N Bryan Street retains everything buyers value in an original Arlington home while delivering the light, flexibility, and ease of living they want today.
