** Seller offering $10,000 in closing costs! ** Timeless charm. Contemporary luxury. Unmatched location. At 3838 13th St N, a fresh chapter awaits — a place where every detail has been carefully reimagined to offer the best of Arlington living. Completely transformed with over $200,000 in high-end renovations, this elegant semi-detached corner-lot home seamlessly blends sophisticated finishes with everyday comfort across over 1,800 square feet. The moment you arrive, you’ll feel the difference. White oak hardwood floors extend across a bright and airy layout, while custom lighting and hand-finished details create a warm and inviting ambiance. The heart of the home — a chef-inspired kitchen — dazzles with quartz countertops, a full quartz backsplash, soft-close cabinetry, all new Samsung appliances, a dedicated wine fridge, and a cozy coffee station to start your mornings right. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms and a spa-quality bathroom feature tile floor, Kohler fixtures, and a custom double vanity with sleek quartz counters. Consistent luxury continues throughout the home’s additional bathrooms — a stylish half bath on the main level and a sleek full bath in the lower level — all showcasing the same high-end materials and craftsmanship. Downstairs, the fully finished lower level offers endless possibilities — whether you envision a home office or a guest retreat, along with a vibrant recreation room. Significant updates provide peace of mind, including a top-of-the-line architectural roof with a standing seam metal section and a brand-new water heater, ensuring long-term durability and efficiency. Beyond the walls, the lifestyle is just as remarkable. Nestled on a corner lot, the property enjoys extra privacy and an open, airy feel. Plus, you’re just steps away from beautiful Quincy Park, where sprawling green spaces, tennis courts, playgrounds, and sports fields invite you to relax, play, and enjoy the outdoors right in your neighborhood.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
