Scale and Character in North Arlington

The home at 5712 26th St N sits within one of Arlington County’s most enduring residential enclaves, where tree-lined streets and generous lot sizes define the built environment. At just over 5,100 square feet, the six-bedroom layout offers a depth of space rarely found at this scale in the immediate area.

The 1940 construction date anchors the home in a period of craftsmanship that still reads in the bones of the structure, while subsequent updates have brought the home in line with contemporary expectations. Five full baths and one half bath serve the six-bedroom program with appropriate generosity.

Two garage spaces provide covered parking in a neighborhood where off-street parking is a meaningful amenity. The home’s position within the 22207 zip code places it within reach of the Rosslyn-Ballston corridor, the George Washington Memorial Parkway, and the broader Northern Virginia employment base.

North Arlington at this price point attracts buyers who understand the long-term value of established neighborhoods, quality school pyramids, and proximity to both DC and the I-66 and I-495 corridors. This home delivers on each of those criteria.
