3824 MILITARY ROAD

ARLINGTON, VA 22207

OPEN SAT AND SUN 2p - 4p! Set well back from Military Road on nearly two-thirds of an acre, 3824 Military Road is a Gruver Cooley custom home with something increasingly hard to find in Arlington: distinctive architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, generous land, and a floor plan that works beautifully for modern life. Military Road itself is part of Arlington history, dating to the Civil War era when it connected the chain of forts built to defend Washington. Today, the road is known for some of North Arlington’s most notable homes. At 3824, a long setback, elevated setting, and mature landscaping create remarkable privacy while keeping D.C., the George Washington Memorial Parkway, and area airports within easy reach. Inside, the home has character that sets it apart from today’s more formulaic new construction. A classic center hall entry is flanked by a living room with built-in cabinets and a wood-burning fireplace and a dining room with custom millwork; both have oversized casement windows allowing lots of natural light. The living room opens to a sunroom with its own fireplace and access to a covered porch—one of several spaces that give the house its personality. The family room and kitchen are designed for modern living with an open floor concept. The kitchen has a beamed cathedral ceiling, is filled with natural light and has a generous center island, Sub-Zero refrigerator (2024), Thermador cooktop (2023), and ample room for cooking, gathering, and casual meals. The adjoining family room is one of the home’s standout spaces, with floor-to-ceiling windows, a dramatic stone fireplace, and French doors opening directly to the flagstone patio and backyard. It is an impressive room, but also one designed to be used every day. Just as relevant for today’s buyers is the private main-level bedroom suite. Set apart from the primary living areas, it offers a genuine option for multigenerational living, an au pair suite, long-term guests, or anyone who would benefit from comfortable one-level accommodations. A private office with custom cabinetry and a spacious main-level laundry room add to the practicality of the floor plan. Upstairs are five additional bedrooms, including a large primary suite with dual walk-in closets and an ensuite bath overlooking the backyard. Two bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while two additional bedrooms are served by a hall bath. The lower level adds recreation and media space, room for a gym, playroom or hobbies, plus extensive unfinished storage. Outside, the scale of the property is another rarity this close to Washington. Mature landscaping surrounds an expansive flagstone terrace with stone sitting walls and terraced gardens, while the broad upper lawn offers space to play, entertain, garden, or consider a future pool. Two separate garages provide additional flexibility for cars, bikes, sports equipment, and storage. Located in the highly sought-after Jamestown Elementary, Williamsburg Middle, and Yorktown High School pyramid, the home is also close to Gulf Branch Nature Center, Potomac River trails, Washington Golf and Country Club, and the GW Parkway. Reagan National Airport, Dulles International Airport, downtown Washington, are all ready accessible. 3824 Military Road offers an uncommon combination: the craftsmanship and individuality of an established custom home, the open and flexible spaces expected today, nearly two-thirds of an acre, and a location that keeps both Washington and the best of North Arlington close at hand.
