Lincolnia Hills offers quiet streets amid major D.C. metro access

“If you’re craving an oasis in the hubbub, Lincolnia Hills is that kind of place,” says Darren Robertson, a local Realtor with Samson Properties who was named a Washingtonian Elite Producer in 2023. “It’s a bit a throwback feeling in many ways, because once you leave its quiet suburban streets, you’re in the buzz of a high-traffic spot that’s solidly inside the beltway. Yet when you’re home, you’re away from highway noise and congestion.”Lincolnia Hills includes standalone homes surrounded by green spaces, condominiums and convenient retail centers, where residents enjoy the best of both worlds. Here, they’re tucked within nature, while living near bustling Beauregard Street, a Metro station, Interstate 395 and a major airport. Community roads lead to Old Town on the water, Tysons Corner and the nation’s capital within less than 15 miles. Yet with all its proximity to urban activity, residents in Lincolnia Hills enjoy a buffer of forested parks. “You’re within striking distance of so much to see and do, yet you’re not in an urban village with a city vibe. Here, you can find a really quiet place, and still join the high-energy flow in minutes,” Robertson says.

Sturdy midcentury homes and townhouses offer variety and charm

Originating as a post-Civil War settlement, Lincolnia Hills was annexed into Alexandria in the ‘50s. During this era, M.T. Broyhill & Sons began building sturdy homes for families attracted to the metropolitan area. Today, midcentury residences include ramblers, split-levels and bi-levels from 1,100 to 3,000 square feet and priced between $600,000 and $900,000. Robertson adds, “Homes here have a lot of classic older architecture, from an era when they were overbuilt to last like tanks. And even though there’s no HOA, most homes are nicely maintained, and the yards are well-kept.” Quiet streets and a canopy of mature trees create a cozy setting for walks and bike rides.Outside of the single-family community, options include a mix of condominiums and town houses. In Mayflower Square, two-bedroom condominiums are priced around $275,000. In Beauregard Manor town houses from 1,900 to 2,700 square feet range from $410,000 to $650,000. You can also find end-unit town houses in Beauregard Heights for around $630,000. Townhouses built in the late ‘90s can fetch $640,000.

Dora Kelley Park features wildlife and hiking with stream views

“The parks in Lincolnia Hills are one of the coolest things about living here,” Robertson says. “People really do take advantage of the natural areas because this whole region is densely populated, and quiet space is a premium benefit.” Holmes Run Trail is accessible via North Morgan Street, and winds through the heart of Dora Kelley Park. Ecosystems across its 50 acres provide refuge for species found nowhere else in Alexandria. Residents bask here in birdsong and the gentle flow of the Holmes Run stream. The southern entrance to Dora Kelley is bordered by the Jerome “Buddie” Ford Nature Center and William Ramsay Recreation Center, equipped with a dance studio, full gymnasium and fitness equipment. Outdoor enthusiasts also trek the Rynex Natural area where a scenic 2.5-mile loop curves through dense oaks.
