Executive Summary
The home at 2501 Byrd Lane sits in the Glendale neighborhood of Alexandria, Virginia, a quiet residential enclave in Fairfax County just south of the Beltway. Built in 1942, the 1,152-square-foot residence offers three bedrooms and two full baths on a modest footprint that rewards thoughtful use of space. An asphalt driveway provides off-street parking, and proximity to the Huntington Metro station keeps the broader Northern Virginia and DC corridor within easy reach.
Mid-Century Alexandria Home Near the Huntington Metro
The home at 2501 Byrd Lane represents a straightforward opportunity in one of Alexandria’s more accessible Fairfax County neighborhoods. Built in 1942, the 1,152-square-foot structure carries the honest proportions of mid-century residential construction — compact, functional, and well-suited to renovation or move-in use.
Three bedrooms and two full baths give the floor plan meaningful flexibility. The private asphalt driveway addresses a practical need that many comparable properties in the area cannot offer, providing dedicated off-street parking without the friction of permit zones or shared lots.
The Huntington Metro station is close by, connecting residents to the Yellow Line and placing Reagan National Airport, Old Town Alexandria, and downtown DC within a single transit corridor. Local retail, dining, and daily services along Richmond Highway and the surrounding commercial nodes round out the convenience picture.
At $523,000, the home sits at an accessible entry point for detached single-family ownership in Northern Virginia — a market where that combination of property type, location, and price point is increasingly difficult to find.

Property Location
About 2501 Byrd Ln
The home at 2501 Byrd Lane is a detached single-family residence built in 1942, offering 1,152 square feet across three bedrooms and two full baths. The structure reflects the measured proportions common to mid-century residential construction in Northern Virginia — a scale that lends itself to efficient living and targeted improvement. An asphalt driveway provides private off-street parking, a feature that carries real practical value in this submarket.
The property sits within the 22303 zip code, a Fairfax County pocket of Alexandria positioned just south of the Capital Beltway. The surrounding area is primarily residential, with commercial services concentrated along Richmond Highway to the west. Local parks, neighborhood grocery options, and everyday retail are accessible without significant travel, and the broader amenity base of Old Town Alexandria is a short drive or Metro ride away.
The Huntington Metro station anchors the transit picture here, offering Yellow Line service that connects directly to Reagan National Airport, the Pentagon, Crystal City, and the core of downtown DC. For those who drive, the interchange access to I-495 and the Beltway network places Tysons, Bethesda, and the Maryland suburbs within a reasonable commute window. The neighborhood’s residential character means day-to-day life moves at a measured pace, with the full energy of the metro area available when needed.
