Welcome to 705 Chalfonte Drive — a beautifully transformed Beverley Hills residence offering refined living, exceptional versatility, and over $500,000 in thoughtfully curated improvements completed within the last five years. Set along one of the neighborhood’s most picturesque, sidewalk-lined, tree-canopied streets, this home pairs timeless charm with high-end modern enhancements in one of Alexandria’s most desirable settings. *Beverley Hills is known for its scenic streets, rolling landscape, and everyday walkability. Enjoy easy access to neighborhood favorites like “The Pit,” along with longer strolls to the shops and dining of Del Ray and Shirlington. With close proximity to I-395, Reagan National Airport, and major employment centers, the location offers both convenience and connectivity. *Inside, hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and classic millwork—including chair rail and wainscoting—create a sophisticated yet welcoming backdrop. The spacious living room features a wood-burning fireplace with a new ceramic liner and custom built-ins, while the formal dining room flows seamlessly into the main living areas, creating an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining. *The fully reimagined and expanded kitchen serves as the heart of the home. Designed with both style and performance in mind, it features premium Crystal Cabinetry, striking marble countertops, a generous center island, and a suite of high-end appliances including a Bluestar gas rangetop with griddle and custom hood, JennAir French-door refrigerator, KitchenAid wall oven and convection microwave, and a wine fridge. A built-in banquette provides a comfortable, casual dining space, and the kitchen connects effortlessly to the surrounding living areas—ideal for gathering. *The main level offers a well-designed and functional layout, including the living room, formal dining room, and kitchen with an eat-in banquette. A separate flex room—suited for a bedroom, office, or den—features an attached, fully renovated and expanded bath with a walk-in shower, creating a comfortable and versatile main-level suite option. *Upstairs, three bedrooms and two full baths include a spacious primary suite with vaulted ceilings, striking Palladian windows with treetop views, and two walk-in closets. *The walk-out lower level enhances the home’s flexibility and function, offering a large recreation room, exercise area, private bedroom, renovated full bath, and a newly added kitchenette with beverage and wine refrigeration—well suited for guests or extended stays. A renovated mudroom with heated tile flooring and abundant storage adds everyday convenience. Additional structural improvements include new pylons and a trenched drainage system connected to a sump pump. Outdoor living is equally impressive. The expansive backyard has been thoughtfully redesigned to include an extended patio, outdoor kitchen, fire-pit area, terraced landscaping, and landscape lighting. A RainBird irrigation system supports ease of maintenance, creating a setting ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. *Additional upgrades and features include: • SolarZone ThermD windows throughout • Two HVAC systems (both replaced in 2019) • Tankless water heater • ADT security system • Automatic 20kW standby generator (annually maintained) • Gutter guards for added ease of maintenance • Recently refreshed interior and exterior accents (March 2026) *705 Chalfonte Drive seamlessly blends timeless character with extensive modern upgrades—offering a flexible floor plan, elevated finishes, and an exceptional indoor-outdoor living experience in the heart of Beverley Hills.
