Craftsman, Colonial, Coastal

Construction is complete and now move in ready. Welcome to 14 E Monroe Ave — a stunning 2026 new construction by the Zelaya Homes Real Estate and Construction Team, perfectly positioned near the border of Del Ray and Rosemont on a corner lot that gives you space between neighbors. This exceptional home offers something almost impossible to find in today's market: a fully finished studio ADU apartment above a detached garage. A fully permitted living unit with its own entrance, full kitchen, full bath, in-unit laundry, and independent HVAC and water heater, perfect as an au-pair or in-law suite or income unit. Three fully finished levels feature 10-foot ceilings on the main level, 9-foot ceilings above and below, refined White Oak engineered hardwood floors, custom millwork and molding, and brushed brass fixtures throughout for a timeless, elevated feel. A deep front porch with Trex composite flooring, wood panel ceilings, and a signature arched ceiling framing a solid wood arched front door makes an unforgettable first impression. The exterior features HardiPlank cement board siding, vinyl-clad windows, and architectural shingles with standing seam metal roofing in a custom-curated color palette. On the main level, an open-concept kitchen and family room connect to a screened-in back porch for effortless indoor-outdoor flow — a layout made for entertaining. The kitchen features SKS stainless appliances including a 42" built-in refrigerator, 36" gas range, double wall oven, and microwave drawer, plus an oversized island with seating for four and a second prep sink. Quartz countertops, double-stacked wall cabinets, a walk-in pantry, butler's pantry with a panel-front beverage or wine fridge, and two pull-out trash cabinets ensure the space is as functional as it is beautiful. The dishwasher features a custom cabinet panel for a seamless built-in look. A mudroom provides a drop-zone for busy families. A gas fireplace with custom built-in cabinetry anchors the family room, and a private study with full ensuite bath — ideal as a guest room or office — plus a powder room complete the level. Upstairs, four spacious light-filled bedrooms each feature custom built-in closet organizers, ceiling fans with solid wood blades and remote controls, and multiple windows. Two bedrooms have private ensuite baths; a hall bath includes a double vanity. The primary suite has three closets including a walk-in, and a spa bath with heated floors, dual-head shower, soaking tub, double vanity, water closet, and LED-lit mirror. A dedicated laundry room completes the upper level. The finished basement adds a large rec room, wet bar with mini fridge and open shelving, a full bedroom with walk-in closet, full bath, and a bonus room for gym, office, or storage — all with 9-foot ceilings and a separate walk-up entrance. Every detail reflects an elevated standard: custom tile in every bath, Delta faucets, LED recessed lighting with dimmers, built-in LED mirrors in all baths, lights in every closet, Cat6 prewiring in all rooms, and a custom wood-and-metal baluster staircase. Two HVAC zones with EcoBee thermostats. The fenced lot has new sod, landscaping, and commercial-grade drainage. Alley access to two parking spots plus the garage totals three spaces. Gas line stubbed for outdoor grill; garage has epoxy floors and EV charging prewiring. Steps from the park and playground next door — visible from inside the home — and a short walk to Mount Vernon Avenue shops and restaurants, this location offers the walkability of Del Ray with the privacy of Rosemont, while remaining delightfully quiet inside. A rare opportunity to own a timeless, meticulously crafted home in one of Alexandria's most desirable corridors.
